My kids love playing together and learning new things, and I love finding new ways to entertain them with discovery activities. What are your favorite sensory activities to do with your kids?

This is the best DIY glitter slime made from glue, without borax!
I love the look of that slime – the glitter makes it so fun. I used to work with kiddos with autism about 10 years ago now and making slime was one of our activities. I had no idea it would be such a big thing these days – kids are obsessed with it! 🙂
Yes, slime is popular, which means it’s important to find a gentle recipe because some of the Borax recipes can create skin irritation if kids play with it a lot. Really this slime is just congealed glue and starch!
Absolutely saving this! My kids are going to love this!
