Then, measure 1/4 cup of Elmer's magical liquid slime activator and pour into the bowl.

Mix well or until clumpy and use your hands to knead together until the mixture becomes the consistency of slime. If it's too sticky, add a tablespoon more of magical liquid and continue kneading.

Now for the fun part! Bring the slime outside into the sun and watch the color of the slime change! In our case, it will change from yellow to orange to red. You'll see different colours depending on the glue you've opted to use.
