Disney Slime: How To Make Aladdin Genie Slime

“Ten thousand years will give you such a crick in the neck!”

Aladdin was such a HUGE movie for me when I was younger. The magic of the Cave of Wonder, the thoughts of what would I wish for, a princess with a sense of adventure, and the music! I loved the music! I had the soundtrack and would sing and dance in my living room ALL.THE.TIME.

When I found out that Aladdin was being recreated into a live action movie, I totally freaked out a little bit. I feel like I say that a lot, but the truth is that I am incredibly excited for ALL of the Disney movies!

ALADDIN is the exciting tale of the charming street rat Aladdin, the courageous and self-determined Princess Jasmine and the Genie who may be the key to their future. Directed by Guy Ritchie, who brings his singular flair for fast-paced, visceral action to the fictitious port city of Agrabah, the film is written by John August and Ritchie based on Disney’s ALADDIN.

ALADDIN stars Will Smith as the larger-than-life Genie; Mena Massoud as the charming scoundrel Aladdin; Naomi Scott as Jasmine, the beautiful, self-determined princess; Marwan Kenzari as Jafar, the powerful sorcerer; Navid Negahban as the Sultan concerned with his daughter’s future; Nasim Pedrad as Dalia, Princess Jasmine’s free-spirited best friend and confidante; Billy Magnussen as the handsome and arrogant suitor Prince Anders; and Numan Acar as Hakim, Jafar’s right-hand man and captain of the palace guards. The film is produced by Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich with Marc Platt and Kevin De La Noy serving as executive producers. Alan Menken provides the score, which includes new recordings of the original songs written by Menken and lyricists Howard Ashman and Tim Rice and two new songs written by Menken and songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.The film, which was shot on practical stages in London and on location amidst the stunning desert vistas of Jordan, has a talented creative team helping to bring Agrabah to life, including: director of photography Alan Stewart, production designer Gemma Jackson and costume designer Michael Wilkinson.

The new Aladdin will be in theaters everywhere May 24, 2019!

And to celebrate, we do one of the things that we are best at….

We make Disney slime! This time, it is an Aladdin slime, but more specifically, a Genie slime! This stretchy, glittery blue slime is perfect for the Genie. And it is borax free so it’s a mom win.

A few things to know before you start making this Disney Slime – Aladdin Genie Slime:

  • We use Elmer’s glue. Other glue may need different amounts of baking soda or contact solution.
  • Lots of time we use fine glitters, but for this slime we used a regular sized glitter, but a jumbo glitter would work well too!
  • I used a soap colorant for this slime. I love using these because they don’t dye your hands and they are skin safe. Plus, they come in many colors!
  • For our charm, I purchased it at Hobby Lobby. Here is a set that is similar and it includes a charm for Jasmine and Aladdin which we will use later for some of our other Aladdin inspired slimes!
  • These are my FAVORITE containers. Cheap and you get a lot of them. They are a great size.

Disney Slime: How To Make Aladdin Genie Slime Supplies:

  • 5 oz clear glue
  • 1/2 cup water
  • blue colorant (you can also use food coloring, paint or pigment)
  • blue glitter
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbsp contact solution

Disney Slime: How To Make Aladdin Genie Slime Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, pour 5 oz clear glue.
  2. Add 1/2 cup water. Mix until the glue has broken up and is incorporated into the water.
  3. Add a few drops of blue colorant, mixing until you get the perfect Genie blue.
  4. Sprinkle in your glitter. I love glitter! Stir.
  5. Mix 1/2 cup baking soda in. Baking soda will help determine your slime thickness.
  6. Add 1 tbsp of contact solution. Mix. The slime will be ready to knead when the slime pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Contact solution is what makes the slime sticky or not.
  7. Knead the slime. It will be sticky at first. Just keep kneading it! If you have to, you can add a little bit of contact solution, but be careful not to over activate.
  8. Add your charm.
  9. Store in an airtight container.

Disney Inspired Slime: Toy Story Little Green Men Slime + Toy Story 4 Trailer

We have more Disney inspired slimes and MORE Toy Story slimes! Don’t tell me that you missed our Toy Story Woody slime?! If you did, don’t worry you can check it out here.

Isn’t it the cutest? Well, yes, but our newest Toy Story inspired slime is pretty cute! I love the Little Green Men (“oooohhh the claw”) from the movies. And I couldn’t imagine having a Toy Story set of slimes without including them!

Before I share the tutorial on how to make alien slime, I HAVE to share with you more trailers from Disney’s Toy Story 4!

Toy Story is full of iconic characters who lovingly make reappearances throughout the movies. Toy Story 4 brings in a few new characters too! Woody’s journey in “Toy Story 4” includes a visit to a carnival where he meets Ducky and Bunny, two carnival prizes who are eager to be won. But when their plans are rudely interrupted by Woody and his friends, they find themselves on an unexpected adventure with a group of toys who have no idea what it feels like to be tacked to a prize wall.

Toy Story 4 is set to release June 21 2019!

If you are getting yourself ready like I am by watching all of the old Toy Story movies or if your kiddo is having a Toy Story party then this new Little Green Men slime is perfect for you!

A few things before you start:

  • These are hands down the best containers for slime! Inexpensive and abundant. Plus a great size!
  • We use Elmer’s Glue with all of our recipes. Different glues may take different amounts of ingredients.

Toy Story Alien Slime supplies:

How to make Toy Story Alien Slime:

  1. In a container, pour 5 oz clear glue.
  2. Add 1/2 cup water and stir until the glue is completely broken down with the water.
  3. Add in your coloring. I used soap colorant in kiwi. I love using soap colorants! They are skin safe, don’t color your hands and available in a lot of different colors!
  4. Pour in some green glitter. I wanted a subtle glitter look so I used an extra fine green glitter. Mix well.
  5. Mix in 1/2 tsp of baking soda. Baking soda is going to determine the thickness of your slime.
  6. Add in a little less than 1 tbsp of contact solution (we use the saline solution just from Walmart!) and mix. It will begin to thicken instantly. Just keep stirring! I let mine sit for a minute to let the activator really get working.
  7. When it pulls away from the bowl, pull it out and knead. It may be sticky still. Knead it for a few minutes and if necessary add a little bit more contact solution. Be careful not to over activate it!
  8. Put in your slime container and add 3 googly eyes to the top.
  9. Cut a strip of blue construction paper to add to the slime container. I just taped mine in place.

There you go! Isn’t it adorable? Don’t forget to pin and to check out the new Toy Story 4 movie in theaters this June!

Toy Story Wood Inspired Slime + Toy Story 4 Teaser Trailer

YOU.GUYS. 2019 is looking to be an insane year for Disney. And just released, Toy Story 4!! If you are like me, the rest of the world and even director Josh Cooley, then you thought the end had already come and gone. Like most people, I assumed that ‘Toy Story 3’ was the end of the story,” said director Josh Cooley. “And it was the end of Woody’s story with Andy. But just like in life, every ending is a new beginning. Woody now being in a new room, with new toys, and a new kid, was something we have never seen before. The questions of what that would be like became the beginning of an entertaining story worth exploring.”

Everyone will be meeting again in Bonnie’s room including a new toy (who doesn’t think he’s a toy…) named Forky!

Woody has always been confident about his place in the world and that his priority is taking care of his kid, whether that’s Andy or Bonnie. But when Bonnie adds a reluctant new toy called “Forky” to her room, a road trip adventure alongside old and new friends will show Woody how big the world can be for a toy. Directed by Josh Cooley (“Riley’s First Date?”) and produced by Jonas Rivera (“Inside Out,” “Up”) and Mark Nielsen (associate producer “Inside Out”), Disney•Pixar’s “Toy Story 4” ventures to U.S. theaters on June 21, 2019.

To celebrate I have something AMAZING for you. Now, I have searched on Google, Pinterest and YouTube and I can’t find anything out there when it came to Toy Story Woody Slime. So, I took it upon myself to make it for you all. This would be THE cutest activity to go with your Toy Story movie marathon or getting ready for the new movie! Or if you are hosting a Toy Story party – these are adorable party favors or activities!

Before we start with our Toy Story Woody Slime a few important things:

  • You can get bandannas on Amazon! This is a really adorable way to complete the look of your Woody slime. Plus, if you are doing for party favors or an activity it is a great way to ‘gift’ a great Woody accessory!
  • I used acrylic paint for this project. Don’t worry, it doesn’t stain your hands! Paints are a great way of getting the perfect shade you are looking for.
  • We used these containers for our slime! Pack of 50 and inexpensive? Yes please.
  • Download our Woody Badges here! Print and top your slime containers!

To make the Toy Story Woody Slime you will need:

  • 5 oz clear glue*
  • 1/2 cup water*
  • Yellow Paint
  • Blue Paint
  • Yellow Glitter
  • Blue Glitter
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda *
  • 1 tbsp contact solution *
  • Western flatback buttons (optional – out of the set I used the boot and badge. I found mine at Hobby Lobby. No Hobby Lobby? You can use these!)
  • 1 slime container
  • 1 Woody Badge (see above to download)
  • 1 red bandanna

* You will need 2 of each of these supplies

How to make Toy Story Woody Slime:

  1. Pour 5 oz of glue in a container.
  2. Add 1/2 cup water and stir until the glue is broken down.
  3. Add a squirt of blue paint and stir.
  4. Pour in blue glitter and stir again.
  5. Add 1/2 tsp of baking soda and stir. The baking soda is going to determine the thickness of your slime.
  6. Add 1 tbsp of contact solution and stir. It will instantly begin to form. Continue to stir until it pulls away from the container.
  7. Knead the slime – it will be sticky at first. If needed, add a bit of contact solution. Contact solution will determine how sticky it is. It is easy to over activate so be careful!
  8. Repeat the process, this time with yellow paint and glitter.
  9. Swirl the two together.
  10. Put into a container.
  11. Tie a bandanna around it.
  12. Add charms (if using) and the Sheriff’s star.

Ta da!

Once you begin mixing your slime, it will turn colors so be sure not to over mix before adding to your container.

It ends up being a nice green color. Think Rex color!

This is just the first of our Toy Story slimes! Be on the look out for our Buzz Lightyear Galaxy slime, our camo toy soldier slime, the Little Green Men alien slime and SO many more! Not to mention our other Disney slimes that go with movies like The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Frozen …. and the list goes on and on!

Beauty & The Beast Slime

 

 

I might age myself here, but when I was in 5th grade and there was this boy named Devin and he lived in our neighborhood. We were great friends and he was cute. I heard rumors that he ‘liked liked’ me. I thought he was cute and I waited patiently. For my birthday one year, his mom drove him over to me because he brought be flowers. As if that wasn’t sweet enough, he also brought be a VHS copy of Beauty and the Beast. Looking back, I wish that I would have told him that I liked him too. He made it obvious enough without having to fully admit it (we were friends!) and we continued our friendship for several years. I retrospect, he probably would have made a pretty awesome first boyfriend. I can’t remember my first boyfriend ever bringing me flowers, let alone Disney movies! But Devin did. He knew…even when kids were trying so hard to be too cool for kid stuff, I had Disney in my blood. He knew that Beauty and The Beast was my favorite. And he thought it was cool.

Flash forward (many, many) years and when I found out that Disney was coming out with a live action version of Beauty and The Beast, I may have freaked out a little bit. Getting press passes to see it early was one of the highlights of the year. My son may have been was totally embarrassed in the theater when I sang along (quietly I swear) with all of the songs. He was mortified when I started crying.

I can’t help it. The Beast. He loved her SO much that he was willing to let her go, even though he knew that meant that he and all of his friends would never break the spell.

Y’all. He was willing to sacrifice himself. That’s love.

Anyway, you aren’t here for my love obsession with Beauty and The Beast. You are here for this awesome gold slime. There are only a few things you need to make this, which is awesome. I’m all for easy projects.

Elmer’s has a new gold glitter glue that is the perfect color to mimic Belle’s gold ballgown. You will also need resin roses. You can find them at your craft store and while I paid a little less (not a whole lot though), I only got 2 red roses. Amazon has a pack that gives you 15! So if you want to add more than just one to your slime or you are making several batches, you may want to order it there.

And just a note about the saline solution: This has been the best one that we have used! It’s cheaper at Walmart, but you can also order it online.

Supplies for Beauty & The Beast Slime

In a container, empty a bottle of Elmer’s Gold Glitter Glue. We only use Elmer’s glue for our slimes. I think that they definitely work the best. However, the glitter glues can be slightly tricky as they are thicker than normal glue. After I squeeze the glue out, I usually get a pair of sharp scissors and cut the bottle in half to scrape out all of the glue inside. This is by far the easiest way to get it all!

Pour in half a cup of water into the glue. Completely stir it all around. The glue will look like it is breaking down and you might get nervous that it is a slime fail, but it isn’t! I promise! Just keep stirring!

When it is mixed well with the water add ½ tsp baking soda and stir.

(No your eyes didn’t play a trick on you – this is our silver glitter glue slime! But it’s the same process, I just didn’t have a photo of the last step!)

Add 1 tbsp of contact solution to the slime. It will instantly begin to form. It will be STICKY! Don’t panic! Knead the slime until it is no longer sticky.

Add the rose. And store in an air tight container when you are done.

This is a really great project to do with the kids while you watch the movie. Or if you are having a Beauty and the Beast party it makes a fun activity or party favor!

Elmer’s specialty glues are really awesome and we use them A LOT! They have glitter glues in just about every color you can think of. But not just glitter glues, they also have really awesome glow in the dark glues! (That also glow in different colors.) And you can’t go wrong with just their regular glues.

Mary Poppins Party Idea – Spoonful of Sugar Cake Pops

Mary Poppins Party Idea – A Spoonful of Sugar Cake Pops

If you were to ever ask me what my favorite movie was, I would have to tell you that there were actually two. In no particular order, I would have to tell you Mary Poppins and Beauty and the Beast. I thought last year, with Beauty and the Beast being recreated that dreams were coming true.

And then.

Then, I got the news that so was Mary Poppins!! Wait, what?!?

In the sequel, which arrives in theaters this Christmas, Mary Poppins is back to help the next generation of the Banks family find the joy and wonder missing in their lives.

MARY POPPINS RETURNS stars Emily Blunt as the practically-perfect nanny with unique magical skills who can turn any task into an unforgettable, fantastic adventure; Lin-Manuel Miranda as her friend Jack, an optimistic street lamplighter who helps bring light—and life—to the streets of London; Ben Whishaw as Michael Banks; Emily Mortimer as Jane Banks; and Julie Walters as the Banks’ housekeeper Ellen; with Colin Firth as Fidelity Fiduciary Bank’s William Weatherall Wilkins; and Meryl Streep as Mary’s eccentric cousin, Topsy.

The film also introduces three new Banks’ children played by Pixie Davies, Nathanael Saleh and newcomer Joel Dawson. Angela Lansbury appears as the Balloon Lady, a treasured character from the PL Travers books and Dick Van Dyke is Mr. Dawes Jr., the retired chairman of the bank now run by Firth’s character.

Are you excited yet?!

I may have been a little excited because the other day I got in the kitchen to whip up a Mary Poppins style dessert for our kids as we settled down to watch the original. What better for a dessert than a spoonful of sugar?

Now, listen. Dustin and I own our own business. We have five kids. Some days I’m doing amazing to just get kids showered, off to school and fed for the day. Forget about dessert. So when I say these are easy to make. I mean, heck, even I can make them.

You Will Need

Mix your cake mix according to your package instructions.

Bake the cake and let it cool completely. In a large bowl, crumble the cake.

Add in the frosting. I use a traditional creamy buttercream frosting. I haven’t tried making it with the whipped frosting, so I can’t tell you how it affects the texture. Mix together thoroughly.

Lay a piece of wax paper on a cookie sheet. Roll small cake balls and place on your sheet. These cake pops are going to have to be a smaller pop in order to fit into your spoon. Place the sheet in the freezer for about 20 minutes until they are set.

(Hint: If your cake mix is hard to roll, place the bowl in the freezer for a few minutes!)

In a small bowl, melt the candy melts according to the package directions. Dip one of your cake pops into the white candy coating.

You want it to be evenly coated, but not dripping.

Add the sugar sprinkles and place back on the cookie sheet.

In your plastic spoon, place a drop of the white candy coating and before it hardens, place your cake pop. Put the spoons on your baking sheet and freeze for a few minutes until it can set. (It won’t take long!)

Sweet. Fun. Spoonfuls of sugar. Literally!

Follow Mary Poppins Returns on Facebook. And Walt Disney Studios on Instagram and Twitter! Mary Poppins Returns will be in theaters December 25, 2018!
