TUFF TRAY IDEAS | SLIME STATION



 The sun has been showing it’s face over the last week and it’s been so lovely . We’ve been out in the garden and the girls have loved being back outside in the sunshine :)


I set them up a slime station and I thought I’d share it with you , as the tuff tray ideas on my blog were really popular last year and I thought I’d continue them as they are great for kids and endless amounts of play can be had with them too.

The slime station is so easy to set up and all you need is a pack of the geli baff, we don’t use this in the bath because it sometimes aggravates Nila’s eczema on her legs so I decided to use it for the slime station and it went really well.


You can actually turn the geli baff into slime but adding lots more water to the solution and leaving it for a little bit to do it’s magic! :)

I opted for the blue as typical geli and did the red one as proper slime and the girls absolutely loved it , they spent hours outside making concoctions and seeing how far the slime would stretch. 


It’s also great for sensory play  and exploring the different textures.

I added some spoons and measuring cups and bowls to the tuff tray so they could use their imagination and just have fun with it , and it was an absolute hit!.



You can pick the geli baff up everywhere , in most supermarkets and on Amazon , and if you’ve not got a tuff tray then they can be purchased on Amazon along with the stand .


I hope you enjoyed this idea and do let me know if you decide to recreate this slime station :)

  7. I need one of these in my life. My daughter is really into playing with kinetic sand and it gets all over our table. Definitely a must for slime sessions too.

  10. We love this stuff. We bought a tuff tray last year and it's so good for everything from crafts to full on messy play. We most recently made cornflour gloop which was very messy, but the kids loved it!
