Tips and Planning

When you send out your party invitations make sure that parents know that their children might get a little messy... or maybe a LOT messy! Suggest that guests wear clothes that they don’t mind getting dirty.

Once the invitations are sent, it’s a good idea to choose which type of slime you want to feature at your birthday party. Green Slime is the classic option and can still have plenty of mix-ins. However, if you want party-goers to choose their own color, our Clear Slime is a great choice. You can also choose from a wide range of “mix-ins”... coloring tablets, Atomic Glow, Glow Powder and Pearl Swirl!

Once you have your slime picked out, and all the goodies that go in it, and are ready for the big day, we recommend setting out all of your materials before your guests arrive.

Clear Slime Fun!Green Slime

Green Slime is the classic slime recipe in the classic slime color! For easy mixing and transportation after the party, we recommend using Shaker Cups and Lids for your slime. However, if you would prefer, you can mix your slime in plastic cups with stirring sticks. Then, put each child’s portion in a plastic bag for them to take home.

Clear Slime

The best thing about Clear Slime is that it is the same great recipe that can be colored any color of the rainbow! Try adding coloring tablets, Atomic Glow, Pearl Swirl or Glow Powder to create tons of fun, fascinating slime colors! Clear Slime can also be mixed in our Shaker Cups and Lids.
