Easy Fluffy Slime Recipe

Slime is even more exciting when it comes in an egg decorated as an Easter bunny! I partnered with Aleene’s Glues to share this easy fluffy slime recipe with you for a fun Easter activity with your kids. My daughters were so excited that I am finally doing a slime project for the blog. They watch slime videos all the time on YouTube, and have tried making slime in the past with varying success. However, I am happy to report that this fluffy slime recipe with Aleene’s Tacky Glue, borax, and shaving cream is a keeper!

In addition to making the slime, we decorated Easter eggs to look like bunnies and filled each egg with slime. These silly eggs would be a great Easter basket stuffer or a fun party favor.

Fluffy Slime Recipe Ingredients

• Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue (4 oz)
• 1 c. water
• 1 c. shaving cream
• 2 T. lotion
• 1 t. Borax dissolved in 1 c. hot water
• Food coloring

 

Making Fluffy Slime

Step 1: Add glue

Empty a 5 oz. bottle of Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue into a bowl. Be sure to squeeze out all the glue!

Step 2: Add water

Mix with 1 cup of water.

Step 3: Add food coloring

Add desired amount of food coloring. We used red and blue to make purple slime.

Step 4: Add shaving cream

Mix in 1 cup of shaving cream. 

Step 5: Add lotion

Stir in two tablespoons of lotion.

Step 6: Mix well

Stir together until mixed well.

Step 7: Add Borax

Slowly add Borax solution until the slime begins to form and pulls away from the bowl. Just add a little at a time and stir well before adding more. If you add too much Borax it will mess up the consistency of the slime.

Step 8: Knead the slime

Pull the slime out of the bowl and knead with your hands.

Supplies for Easter Bunny Eggs to Hold Slime

• Plastic eggs (look for ones without holes!)
• Craft foam
• Googly eyes
• Small pom-poms
• Permanent marker
• Hot glue

How to Make Easter Bunny Eggs

Step 1: Freehand cut a pair of ears and feet from colorful foam.

Step 2: Glue to a plastic egg with hot glue. For this project, you’ll want to find eggs without holes in the bottom, otherwise the slime will find a way to ooze through!

Step 3: Glue on googly eyes and a pom-pom nose and tail. Finish adding a pair of whiskers with a Sharpie.

Step 4: Fill the egg with a little fluffy slime.
