Kids love slime and mystical unicorns and this slime takes the two and combines them into a magical activity kids can't get enough of! Fluffy, smooth unicorn slime with pretty colors and a lot of glitter feels just like dancing on clouds. This is a very smooth slime that has more of a dough consistency than stretchy.

Step
1

Add 1/2 cup hair conditioner and 1/4 cup Elmer's® Glue to a bowl and mix together using a plastic spoon. You'll want to use inexpensive conditioner that is white in color so you can easily change the color. Add corn starch and mix together until it begins to form a ball. Start by adding 1/2 cup of corn starch and continue mixing and adding more corn starch until it is makes a ball.

Decide how many colors of slime you want to end up with and divide your ball into that many smaller balls. Use craft sticks to add dollops of paint to each ball. Work the balls to incorporate the colors.
