✨ Let me start off by saying, I get it. I too used to run laps around my kids with the dust buster and a wet dust cloth. 😅 It takes practice, and as they get older, it does get easier. In full transparency, I let newly turned 3-year-old sissy play with slime, and she ended up with slime in her hair. 🤦‍♀️ 3 1/2 years was the sweet spot for her. 👉 Here’s how we minimize the mess with slime play: Designate a slime zone! We use the kitchen counter and provide a slicone mat perfect for play-based learning activities! Hair hack! Pull back hair with a headband and a hair tie. No more slime in the hair drama! Messy Shirt Have them wear a messy shirt that no one will care if it gets ruined. Clean slime You can remove slime from hands by using slime! Take a medium-sized piece and dab it over slimy hands. It’ll start to pull the slime off. If the slime is extra sticky just use warm water and soap. It’ll melt right off! ❤️ Like, comment, and share if you found these tips helpful! #motherhoodhacks #sensoryplay #toddleractivities #kidsactivities #parentingtips #parenthack #messyplay
