Back to School Apple Scented Slime

Create this yummy smelling Back to School Apple Scented Slime this fall season! This stretchy apple slime will keep kids entertained during the cooler months.

My kids love to create slime on a regular basis!

The cool thing about slime is that you can get as creative as you’d like with it! You can experiment with different colors, ingredients, textures, scents, add-ins and more.

This fall, we created Apple Scented Slime using an apple scent and apple add-ins.

This is a super stretchy slime that I’m sure will entertain the kids with it’s yummy smell and fun apple add-ins.

Back to School Apple Scented Slime

Supplies:

• 1 (6 ounce) bottle of Elmer’s School Glue
• About ½ cup warm water
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• 1 tablespoon contact lens solution (containing boric acid), for each batch
• 1 teaspoon apple scent
• red food coloring
• apple add-ins

More Apple Slime Add-Ins:

• Mini Apple Fruits

Directions:

Empty the contents of the glue bottle into a large mixing bowl.

Fill the empty glue bottle about ⅓ full with warm water (about ¼ cup) and seal with the lid. Shake well to combine the remaining glue with the water. Pour into bowl with glue and stir to combine.

Add the baking soda to the glue and stir to mix thoroughly.

Stir the red food coloring and apple scent into the glue mixture before adding the contact lens solution.

Add the contact lens solution to the glue mixture and stir well.

(Note: regular glue will require less contact lens solution than glitter glue. Add the contact lens solution slowly, mixing between additions, and add only enough to bring the glue together into a soft ball.)

Remove the slime from the bowl. The slime will be sticky.

Begin to play with the slime, stretching or kneading it as you would bread dough, to bring the slime together.

The slime is ready when it is no longer sticky.

Store slime in an airtight container in the refrigerator when not in use.
