Halloween Fright Night Movie Slime

October 27, 2018 by Shellie Wilson

This fright night slime is perfect for Halloween and you are going to love the texture of this DIY Slime. My kids loved mushing this between their fingers and feeling the popcorn crunch as they played with the DIY Slime. You could make this slime in different Halloween colors too. The popcorn not only gave it a crunch but also a wonderful smell, such a tactile batch of Slime. I have to say we all enjoyed messing with it. Because it contains food, we suggest a play and throw out policy with this batch of Homemade slime. Once the popcorn is added this is a NON Edible slime. Please make sure your child understands that.

This tutorial is easy to follow as this SLIME recipe uses the no-fail method of Elmers glue.

Ingredients:
Elmer’s Glue
Elmer’s Magical Liquid
Shaving Cream (any brand is fine)

1 Snack pack of Cobs Popcorn

1 plastic eyeball

 

Method:
Step 1. Pour 4 oz of the Glue into a bowl.
Step 2. Add 1/2 cup shaving cream and mix well.
Step 3. Add 1/4 cup Magical Liquid and mix immediately and well.
Step 4. Once combined, take mixture out of the bowl and knead with hands until slime is not sticky and can be played with.      Step 5. Enjoy!

Slime is a great stress reliever as well as an educational tool, not only does it teach science but it is hands-on , which means children are using their fine motor skills to make and or play with slime.

Check out our Amazon gift guide for kids who love slime, we basically sourced all the best Slime gifts, Slime kits, Slime supplies and Slime merchandise and crammed it all into one gift guide.  Slime Lovers Gift Guide.

Book Review: Once in a Blue Moon

Kids all seem to go through a phase of loving trivia, and if you’ve got kids who want to know about the tallest, biggest and weirdest things in nature, they’ll enjoy the book Once in a Blue Moon by Emily Hawkins. 

The book explores wonders of astronomy, meteorology, big trees, weird animals, volcanoes and more to show off the rarest events and phenomena in the natural world. 

Kids ages 7-10 will learn about the lake (Lake Hillier, on an island off Australia) that has water that’s bubblegum pink, the world’s deepst came (Veryovkina Cave in the country of Georgia) and the world’s biggest tree, a banyan in southeast India with a canopy that covers more than five acres!

Readers will learn what a blue moon is, how supernovas happen and about Haley’s comet and solar eclipses, among other space-related phenomena. Closer to home they’ll learn about stinky flowers, bleeding trees, glowing fungi and pizzly bears. 

There’s content about times when it’s rained frogs (and when frogs have exploded en masse), when snow made giant snowballs all by itself and how clouds stack on themselves like pancakes. The book also explores ball lightning, sun dogs, St. Elmo’s fire and more. 

I love books like this and I know kids do, too. There’s so much weird and wonderful about our world and even as adults we don’t know about all of these things. I found it fun to learn, for example, that there’s a volcano on the island of Java that not only sends out blue flames from vents near its crater, it’s also home to an acidic lake. 

Illustrations by Vlad Stankovic illuminate these weird natural wonders and are sure to get kids interested in learning more about some of these remarkable animals, plants, rock formations and more. 

About the book: 80 pages, hardcover. Published 2026 by Wide Eyed Editions. Suggested retail price $30.
