GALAXY SLIME!!!!

 As most women I LOVE Pinterest.

So as I was browsing this caught my eye. I showed it to the kids and the were on board automatically.

Introducing Galaxy Slime


thanks to Two Da Loo for the fun activity!
Here's the link to her Galaxy Slime: http://www.two-daloo.com/night-sky-activities-preschool-galaxy-slime-borax-free/


We had to make some slight adjustments, like making our own watercolor paints!

Ingredients Used: 
Crayola Water Colors
Fine Glitter Packs
Elmer Clear School Glue
Sta-Flo Liquid Starch






I couldn't find liquid watercolors like the original called for so instead we made our own. We just popped out the colors from the Crayola water color pack and put in 1/2 cup of steaming hot water and let it dissolve. 


The kids then made the individual colors needed: Blue, Black, Purple and White along with an assortment of different glitter in each color.


After we were done mixing the individual colors we mixed them all together to create our "Galaxy Slime"

A Day At The Skate Park

The weather here in O-H-I-O has been particularly chilly for summer. The high temperature has been around the late 60's or low 70's which means it's too cold for the pool.

Today we opted to go to the skate park with their friends. They got to spend most of the morning in the cool air skating their hearts out, and had the place to themselves most of the time.
