Edible fibre slime recipe or fiber slime
if visiting from the USA
We trialled pysllium husk powder
as an alternative to borax which became regulated in the UK during 2007
- EU substance information. The finished fibre slime or putty behaves somewhat
like the traditional, with less movement or fluidity and a natural colouring
that makes it hard to tint but we thoroughly enjoyed the cold clammy texture
and combining it with regular homemade
playdough was a truly fun gloopy time! It's a great ingredient to have
in the food cupboard for planned or spontaneous messy play times!
