Googly Eye Monster Slime

My kids love making slime. It is the perfect activity when I have things to do and they are bored. Make it once and the kids will play with it over and over again for about a week. Slime is made using inexpensive ingredients and kids love the way it squishes.

Monster Slime only needs 3 things in order to make it. Our slime recipe calls for glue and starch, and if you want it to have the eyes, that makes up the 3rd part of the recipe. This slime doesn’t contain borax because we do not want the kids getting sick. I also mention food color. Without the food color, your slime will be white, which looks very cool too.

What Can I Use Instead of Borax for Slime? 

I never use borax as an activator in my slimes. I do not want to take the chance that the kids will have a reaction or have it cause breathing issues. After hearing the horror stories, all of the slimes we make are borax free. This no borax slime uses liquid starch, like sta-flo as the activator. It does the same thing and I do not have to worry that the kids might end up with chemical burns.

How Long is Slime Good?

Slime does not last that long. At least not well. After a few days, the slime will start to get very sticky. Oftentimes, Willow will add more activator, or in this case starch, to the slime. This will extend the life of her slime. Usually once the slime has hit the 1 week to 2 weeks mark, I will have her throw it away and then she makes a new batch.

 What Goes Into Monster Slime? 

• White Glue
• Liquid Starch
• Googly Eyes
• Food coloring

Pro tip: I buy just about everything online. I hate trying to find supplies at the store and not being able to find it. We also purchase our glue in huge containers because we make a lot of slime. 1 slime recipe uses about 1 bottle of the small glues and that will add up quickly.

How Do You Make Googly Eye Slime? 

In a bowl add in your glue and your starch. Start mixing with a spoon.
If you are adding food color, this is where you want to add some in. To make this mint green color we used 3 drops of green.
Once the glue and starch start to come together, start mixing with your hands. It can take a little while to come together. Just keep mixing and kneading.
Once your slime has come together, add in googly eyes. You can add in as many or as little as you like.
Store your slime in a baggy or small container with a lid.
