Made with psyllium husk, cornstarch, and water (food coloring optional), this recipe for glue-free slime can be made in the microwave or the stove top and is completely non-toxic!
Making slime without glue is easy when you have some gelatin and a little corn syrup. These easy ingredients also make this slime technically edible if you have kids you might put it in their mouths.
It’s also a play with and toss slime as it wouldn’t store for a second round of play, so be sure to schedule a time when you can really play with it for a while before tossing!
This DIY slime also calls for psyllium husk, but doesn’t use cornstarch. A huge bonus for us, since all of our family members are allergic to corn!
It’s also a super easy slime recipe since it really only needs one ingredient and some water to make!
A truly edible slime, this slime recipe calls for gummy bears, corn starch, and some powdered sugar!
We use the organic Black Forest gummy bears, corn-free powdered sugar, and arrowroot powder to avoid corn and corn syrup… works really well!
Though this glue free slime also uses corn starch, it contains chia seeds and xanthan gum as the main ingredients!
I love how stretchy this slime looks! Hours of slime fun for the whole family! 🙂
