11. Sparkling Ocean Slime in a Jar

Who says slime can’t live in the bathroom? Create a beautiful, mess-free sparkling ocean slime that replicates the look of glistening sea water. By combining clear school glue, water, baking soda, and contact lens solution, kids can mix up a batch of stretchy, satisfying slime. Fold in deep blue and teal glitter, tiny star-shaped sequins, and miniature plastic sea creatures to complete the ocean aesthetic.
Storing the slime in neat, airtight mason jars decorated with nautical twine and seashells turns this popular kids’ toy into a lovely bathroom counter accessory. Kids can play with the slime on a waterproof tray before hopping into the tub, providing a wonderful tactile transition activity that helps them wind down after a busy day.
