Program Description

Event Details

Science matters - even when it’s messy.

Mix common household ingredients to create different types of slime while experimenting with texture, flexibility and flow. This all-ages, hands-on activity turns curiosity into discovery through playful experimentation - no lab coat required.

Experiment with making the following slimes:

  • Fluff Wash Slime – a mixture of shampoo, cornstarch, food coloring and water
  • Fresh Scent Slime – a blend of white school glue, laundry detergent and food coloring
  • Classic Stretch Slime – a combination of white school glue, borax, food coloring and warm water

This event is part of the North Carolina Science Festival, a statewide celebration of STEM. You can find more events like this all month long at ncscifest.org.

Registration is required by calling 910-483-7727, ext. 1435, or registering online.
