This activity for painting on foil and glue is one that requires a tiny bit of set up but it’s well worth it. This makes a great Valentine’s Day activity, but I’ve also shared some ideas about how you could change this up for different times of the year

So before I even start properly wring this post I can now confirm that this will probably be my son’s most favourite thing ever that I’ve written. My kids are huge Batman fans and Batman crafts and activities are not just what they like the most but what my son would do every single day if he could. Actually he pretty much does. So with the new Batman Lego film coming out which I have pretty much been reminded about since the first trailer came out, I thought I’d put together a little round up of Batman crafts and activities to help out all the other parents that are constantly asked what Batman stuff their kids can do today. Enjoy!

I’m calling this a taste safe slime but actually it’s this is completely edible slime – I’m just not letting my kids know that! Here’s the reason- my daughter adores sensory play and is happiest when given some kind of messy, sensory activity to play with so she’d adore it too, but here’s the rub. She’s also the kind who would run across the room in playgroups to eat the playdough. Every. Single. Time. So these days I’m super careful and as such this is a recipe for slime that’s totally kid friendly and uses ingredients which are easily available in the UK – not weird stuff you need to shop online for. I won’t tell my kids that it’s edible slime, just in case they ever think the other kind is ok to eat too (it’s really not) but if they do eat some I know that nothing bad will happen. If you love the idea of trying out some taste safe slime recipes with your kids then make sure you check out the link at the end of this page where I’ve got over 40 sensory play ideas including 12 more taste safe slime recipes like chocolate slime and one made from Starburst!

I know some people would rather buy slime than make it themselves today I’m sharing where you can buy slime in the UK. Slime is cheap to make but it’s also pretty cheap to buy too so if you don’t have shops locally where you can buy the ingredients for making slime or you just don’t fancy getting in a mess buying slime is the best option.

Last weekend we tried out a really easy lava lamp experiment, both my kids love trying out simple science experiments and ones that make fun things happen are always a winner!
