Marshmallow Slime

Ingredients
1 bag mini marshmallows
2 tbsp coconut oil, plus additional for mixing
1/2 cup corn starch, plus additional for mixing
1/2 cup powdered sugar, plus additional for mixing
Food coloring

Directions
Place marshmallows and coconut oil in a large pot and heat over medium heat. Stir continuously until melted (you can do a microwaved version of this as well). Once melted, pour your marshmallow melt into a mixing bowl and add in corn starch and powdered sugar. Mix with your hands. Note: this will get STICKY! To help with this, coat them in coconut oil. (As the slime cools, invite your child to help with the mixing) Transfer the mixture onto a cornstarch coated surface, and continue to knead and mix until the *right* slime consistency is reached. It should be stretchable and not sticky. Keep adding corn starch, powdered sugar and coconut oil until you feel happy with your texture. Divide the slime into three, and add a few drops of food coloring on each. Knead again to mix the colors. Have fun rolling, stretching and playing with your slime (and it’s ok to take a bite, too!).
