Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup white school glue
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon contact lens solution (with boric acid)
- 1–2 cups of water
- Blue and green food coloring
- Glitter (optional)
- Ocean-themed decorations (like small shells or fish)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, pour in 1 cup of white school glue. Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda and stir until fully combined.
- Introduce blue and green food coloring to achieve an ocean hue. Start with a few drops and mix until you reach your desired color intensity.
- Slowly add 1 tablespoon of contact lens solution to the mixture. Stir continuously as the slime begins to form.
- Use your hands to knead the slime. If it’s too sticky, add a little more contact lens solution until a smooth consistency is achieved.

- Store your ocean slime in an airtight container to keep it fresh and prevent it from drying out.
