A fun 3-ingredient slime recipe for kids, this Sparkly Pink Glitter Slime is perfect for some rainy day sensory play or a birthday thank you gift.

Pink Glitter Slime Recipe

Slime is a regular thing at our house and while I love getting creative and adding some crazy mix-ins (like with our gold foil slime or crunchy snowcone slime) – a straightforward 3-ingredient slime is sometimes just what we need for some quick sensory play.

This easy pink glitter slime recipe is so incredibly easy to whip up that the video in the post shows my 7 year old making it! (With supervision of course.)

You can also add a bit of shaving cream to transform this simple slime into a fluffy slime, and if your slime turns out too hard you can knead in some water to loosen it up. I love that slime allows kids to experiment and notice different changes in the physical properties, a great introduction to scientific concepts.

This pink glitter slime would be perfect for any sparkly, princess-loving child – or as a special Valentine’s Day surprise! It would be super cute to get a few tiny containers and make a double or triple batch of the slime to divide up and give to slime-loving friends. (You can also grab some circular labels and make a cute label for the containers.)

Slime can require a bit of experimentation and patience, especially if you’re still new to it. If you run into any slime fails, check out this troubleshooting post to help fix your slime.

Tip: I highly recommend grabbing a couple of these sturdy plastic lunch trays. I use these for almost all of our craft or kitchen activities, as well as in our Montessori practical life activities. Ours have lasted for over 6 years and are still going strong, plus they are so great for containing messes and allowing the kids to set a project to the side while it dries (or if you have to clear off the table for supper).

How to Make Pink Glitter Slime

Combine the glue and baking soda until the powder is fully absorbed.

Add the contact solution and stir until the slime is no longer sticky to the touch.

Knead for two minutes until the slime is not sticky at all.

If necessary, knead in more contact solution if the slime is too sticky.

If the slime becomes too hard, knead in some water – just a couple tablespoons at a time.

This slime will last for at least two weeks if stored in an airtight container when not in play.
