Harry Potter Potion Slime

Harry Potter always seems to have a love-hate relationship with potions class. Snape despises him and makes his life miserable, but potion brewing can create some powerful and fantastic magic. Potions class is one of my favorite parts of Harry Potter. It is like chemistry with a little extra flair, which is just how my kids view making slime. Combining Harry Potter and slime was a dream come true for them.

My awesome graphic designer husband made these labels for slime bottles. You can find them all at the end of this post.

You will need:

the printables at the end of this post
milk bottles
spray paint
Mod Podge
a foam brush
scissors
Slime or slime supplies

Buy milk bottles, they make the perfect slime bottle! Wash and dry them, making sure to remove any labels. I spray painted the lids of the milk bottles to give them a more potion-y feel.

Magical Slime

You will need:

1 and 1/2 TBSP baking soda
3 TBSP contact solution
12 OZ School Glue (Use glitter glue for potion awesomness!)
Glitter and food coloring

Dump all of the glue in a bowl. Add the baking soda and mix well. Add the coloring and glitter and mix until well blended. Add the contact solution and mix until it gets hard to mix. Pull the mixture out of the bowl and knead it until it becomes slime!

Add it to your slime bottle! A chopstick or straw is perfect for getting it in and out of the bottle.
