Slime Science Workshop

Mix, Stretch, Experiment & Discover

11/09/2026 11:00 am

Get ready for a wonderfully messy introduction to the science of slime.

In this hands-on workshop, kids will explore what makes slime behave the way it does while learning about ingredients, reactions and the science happening right in their own hands. We’ll guide them through the process step by step, giving them plenty of opportunities to observe, experiment and ask questions along the way.

Then comes the fun part: making it their own.

Each participant will create a personalized slime inspired by their unique personality, choosing colours, textures and other creative touches to make something that feels completely their own.

Our goal is to encourage curiosity rather than simply follow a recipe. Kids will have a chance to experiment, make observations and discover how small changes can affect the final result.

Every participant will also receive a take-home worksheet with ingredient information, instructions and space for notes, so the exploration doesn’t have to end when the workshop does. Families can recreate the activity, experiment with variations and continue discovering together at home.

Perfect for curious kids who love to mix, make, investigate and get a little messy.

Kids will explore:

  • The basic science behind slime
  • How different ingredients work together
  • Following and adapting a simple formula
  • Observation and experimentation
  • Colour, texture and creative customization
  • How to safely continue experimenting at home

Each child leaves with their own custom slime, a take-home activity sheet and, hopefully, a few new questions they’re excited to investigate.
