How to make it
Freshly heated slime can burn, so a grown-up does all microwave steps, and toss it after 1 day since it can grow mold.
1Mix it up
Whisk the psyllium, water and a drop of color in a big bowl with a fork.
2Heat it
Grown-up step: microwave for 1 minute, stir, then 1 more minute. Watch it so it doesn't bubble over.
3Thicken it
Grown-up step: heat in 30-second bursts until it looks like thick jelly. It's very hot, so use oven mitts.
4Cool it
Grown-up step: scrape it onto a plate and let it cool for at least 15 minutes. Touch-test it before handing it over.
5Stretch it
Pull, stretch and squish it. It feels cool and gooey.
Edie's tipMicrowave longer for firmer slime. Less time makes it runny.
