Magnetic Slime
Ordinary slime is already fun to play with, but make it magnetic and it’s even more fun!
You’ll need: liquid starch, white glue, iron oxide powder, a bowl, plastic spoons, 1/4 cup measuring cup, 1 tablespoon measuring spoon, a neodymium (rare earth) magnet
Instructions:
- Pour 1/4 cup of white glue into your mixing bowl.
- Add 2 tablespoons of iron oxide powder and stir it into the glue.
- Add in 1/8 cup of liquid starch.
- Stir the glue and starch mixture really well and you will see the slime start to form as the starch reacts with the glue.
- Knead the slime on your playing surface.
- Begin playing using your magnets!
