How to make colourful soap slime
1. Pour the soap flakes and warm water into a large container, bowl or even an old baby bath or tub.
2. Stir the mixture gently with a wooden spoon so the soap flakes start to dissolve.
3. Once the soap flakes have dissolved, continue to mix with the electric beater until the soap slime gets nice and thick and fluffy.
4. When the mixture is all whipped up, separate the soap slime into separate large bowls and then add a few drops of food colouring to each bowl. One colour per bowl.
5. Gently stir the soap slime in each bowl until the food colouring is fully blended.
6. Pour the colourful soap slime from each bowl back into the original large container or tub.
7. It’s now ready for your kids to play with using all the different kitchen utensils.
