The elves in our Slime Lab dreamt up a new slime recipes for winter fun called Cozy Christmas Slime. It’s so easy to make, stretches like crazy, and the texture is irresistible. The holidays are a wonderful time for making, crafting, and keeping little hands active with creativity. If you’re looking for a Christmas slime recipe, this is for you…
The Christmas Slime is made cozy with the soft texture of of Baker’s Twine. Any color will work, and the common red and white baker’s twine would give this a sweet candy cane effect. If you have other yarn at home, give that a try!

Cozy Christmas Slime Supplies
Elmer’s Washable Clear School Glue – 1 cup (240 ml). This glue is my favorite for all kids art and craft activities. We make a lot of slime, and having a gallon has been a good investment for us.
Baking Soda – 2 teaspoons (10 ml)
Contact Solution with boric acid as an ingredient – 2 tablespoons (30 ml) (<< this brand works!)
Scissors – this is my favorite brand for kids, and they make an excellent left-handed version
Step 1:
Pour Elmer’s Washable Clear Glue into your mixing bowl. Elmer’s is the only glue I would recommend for this slime, and now they sell it in a gallon container so you can make (almost) endless batches of stretchy slime.
Step 2:
Pour in baking soda and stir until well-blended with the glue. It will look make the glue look foggy.
Step 3:
Snip small pieces of the baker’s twine and pour them into the glue mixture. Stir well.
Step 4:
Pour in contact solution. Stir. The slime should come together within a minute. Once it comes together, remove it from the bowl and knead it until it’s no longer sticky. Add more contact solution if it’s too sticky.
