Frosty Flubber Recipe for Play

My girls loved the snow slime we made so much that we were inspired to make another type of slimy snow.  This Frosty FLUBBER is icy cold, super stretchy, oozy, squishy, sparkly, & SO FUN!  Rosie and Jewel quickly named it Olaf slime after a bit of play.  It's easy to see why, too!

Olaf Slime

Olaf Slime Recipe

• 2 bottles of refrigerated school glue 
• 4-8 ounces of refrigerated liquid starch
• Optional- iridescent glitter

                            

Note- Liquid starch can be found in the laundry aisle of most stores or online here

Method

• Begin by refrigerating your glue and starch overnight.  This step is crucial to getting the icy & frosty temperature that makes this flubber so unique and special.

• Once the ingredients are cold start by pouring the glue into the bowl

• Then slowly add the liquid starch & mix

• Slowly add more starch and continue to mix.  Once the flubber begins to form have kids continue mixing with their hands

Mixing the ingredients is so fun!  The glue and starch will be delightfully cold & squishy

• Continue to slowly add starch & mix until the desired consistency is reached.  You can use less starch for a more slimy play material, or you can use more starch for a firmer, more flubber-like material

Rosie added a lot more starch to her bowl than Jewel

She loved playing & exploring with her icy cold FROSTY FLUBBER

And Jewel loved her slimier version of OLAF GOO

Olaf SLIME is easy to make & so very fun.  It is delightfully cold and icy and irresistible to touch just like my girls imagine Olaf to be. Once the FLUBBER is mixed you can add glitter to make it sparkle if desired.  Add Winter play animals, Frozen figures, or snowflake cookie cutters to extend the fun.  

My girls have played with their Olaf SLIME several times since we first made it, and they have found all sorts of ways to play!

Tips & Storage:  If your flubber is too sticky add more starch.  If it is stringy add a touch more glue.  It really is a very forgiving recipe.  Store the flubber in a zip seal bag in the fridge, and it will be delightfully cold each time kids go to play with it. The flubber will be good for several months and really doesn't spoil.
