Make a Slime Monster

Slowly pour 100ml of water into a bowl of 150g cornflour and mix.

Next, add food colouring of choice and mix.

Add googly eyes, encourage counting as they add eyes or beads.

Allow time to explore the texture, how does the monster feel?

What do you think might happen if we add another colour?

You could also add glitter/buttons/sequins/tissue paper etc for different textures/colours to explore.

How did you make your slime monster? Can you draw pictures to help someone else make their own slime monster? Can you label your instructions?

Children will log onto Teams and enter a live lesson with their teacher who will read a story to them and reflect on their day.
