When the slime had settled and Halloween was in the rear view mirror, our Slime Contest Winner, Melitsa Avila had the chance to send us some awesome pictures and video from her slime extravaganza. Just what do you do with 50 gallons of slime? Melitsa came up with a great idea… why not share the wealth with an entire elementary school?
Before Halloween I entered a contest to win 50 gallons of slime. Not really comprehending what 50 gallons would look like. ( I’m a metric girl!) Both kids have a fascination for science so I thought it would be an excellent prize for them and they could share with their friends.
It was great to see how excited the kids were about making the slime, and Melitsa put together a fun video documenting her slime adventure. Check out Melitsa’s blog for the whole story.

This contest has ended. Thank you for entering. Congratulations to our winner, Melitsa @playactivities!
You’ll be the hit of the party if you win 25 gallons of Spangler Slime – that’s 95 liters for those mad scientists who love the metric system. This isn’t some pre-made slime… no… it’s Spangler’s special PVA formulation for concocting the perfect batch of slime! If you’re the lucky winner, you’ll receive 25 gallons of green Slime Goo (the best PVA – polyvinyl alcohol) solution and Slime Cross-Linker (the linking agent that hooks it all together when you mix the two liquids). You mix it… you make it… and people go wild for slime.
What do you have to do to win? Just follow the directions below…
