Slime Recipe with Contact Solution

Start by stirring the water and glue together in a bowl and mix it up well. The next step is adding all of your spices to your glue mixture and stirring it up.

Fold your shaving cream in gently.

Add your contact solution or saline a little at a time. Stir it up quickly to combine it until the polymer chains start to form and your slime is no longer sticky.

Take the slime out of the bowl and knead it for a few minutes with your hands to get the texture smooth and to be sure all of the ingredients are mixed well.

To make this extra fun to play with, serve this slime up in a baking pan ( I have some from the Dollar Store for just this kind of use) add gingerbread cookie cutters, googly eyes, buttons, pipe cleaners, and other items for creating your gingerbread men.

With this fluffy slime recipe, you can play, Stretch, Pull, Twist, Poke, and squeeze to create adorable gingerbread men.

Make a melting gingerbread slime family. Pile your gingerbread slime up and squish it down, letting it ooze between your fingers. Enjoy the amazing aroma of this super cool contact solution slime.
