at home

You’ve seen us post several times about our love for Kiwi Co and the amazing boxes we have ordered. You can order just one box and see which line you like best or subscribe to receive one each month. Boxes range from exciting STEM crafts to a doodle crate and everything in between. I love saving our Kiwi boxes for rainy or cold days. A few boxes my kids have loved are making soap and creating a paint pendulum. You can save $10 by using this link to place an order.

Check out these fun at-home ideas for making Halloween crafts & experiments. My kids are eager to make the 3-D yarn spiderweb. Extend the at-home crafts with these Fall ideas too!

We are launching a new blog post series; ‘fun from home’. Each week we will send an easy recipe, game or activity for your kids to make at home! We are starting off with a kid favorite and one that is surprisingly easy to make– slime.

SLIME— Believe it or not, it’s not as messy as you may think. We find the Elmer’s glue slime recipes to be super easy and work great. Elmer’s also sells starter packs, we have not trie these though.

Supplies needed:

Clear glue or sparkle glue
Contact solution
Baking soda
Or the slime kit (pictured & linked above)

Instructions:

Pour out entire contents of the 5 fl oz Elmer’s Color Glue into a bowl.
Add ½ tbsp of baking soda and mix thoroughly.
Add 1 tbsp of contact lens solution. …
Take the slime out and begin kneading with both of your hands.
If it’s too sticky, add ¼ tbsp contact lens solution and knead.
