Making Sand Slime from Elmer’s Glue and Tide Detergent

Glue and Tide Slime

I’ve had the supplies to make slime form Glue and Detergent for a while and haven’t found the time to actually get it done. Andrew and I had time today and so we made some of it together. What the video does not show is that that before you find the sweet spot of the correct portions of detergent and glue it is a sticky, sticky mess. I tried mixing with my hands before that perfect balance was struck and I couldn’t even push the record button to show what a crazy mess I made. Eventually, we did strike the perfect balance and made two different sets of slime. One with simple white glue and the other with a glitter glue.

Then I added some of the Kinetic Sand that I made with Brian on Steamdads. Mixing the sand at first made the whole concoction stickier. I have no idea how that was possible but that is what happened. In the end we got everything mixed up well and this has been one of Andrew’s favorite things to play with, especially after he lost privileges on the iPad.

One of the most entertaining songs in Beauty and the Beast, in my opinion, is the song about Gaston. The song that LeFou sings to all the people at the tavern that breaks out into a brawl with Gaston the clear winner. I’m interested in seeing how the whole thing plays out in the live action movie, but if this clip below is any indication then I think we are going to be very pleased. Josh Gad is certainly appropriately cast as Gaston’s number one fan, LeFou.

I also have a couple of fun Character posters below.
