Question
Sandy Kendall –
I already have the dry ice bubble generator. Is there a way to get the materials in your Halloween kit and not buy a new generator too? (I’m out of storage space).

The kit is designed for the children to work in groups and will depend on the amount of slime used for each web. I would recommend four groups per kit to ensure you have enough.
