With Sam home from the NICU, one of the things we’re extra on top of now is hand washing. It’s the easiest way to keep germs at bay and help ensure our little preemie boy doesn’t come down with something during cold and flu season, which could be really awful for him. To make the constant hand washing a little more fun for Miss G, I’ve been switching up our soap every now and then by adding different essential oils to it, putting it in a bottle with a foaming pump, and once even adding a drop or two of pink colouring to it {you do what you gotta do, right?} Thankfully Grae’s really great about it all, even though I feel like I ask her to wash her hands about 100 times a day.
To keep the hand washing fun going, I thought we’d make some of our own soap this time around. I wanted something fun and different but really easy and that’s when I remembered seeing some YouTube tutorials on flubber soap a while back. None of the videos I’d watched included an actual recipe and I knew that I wanted ours to be more like a dough than actual slime or flubber, so this morning Miss G and I did some experimenting and came up with what I think could be the most awesome DIY squishy soap ever! Seriously though – it’s soooocool. It turned out better than I imagined it would and after a full day of testing it out, I can honestly say that it works fabulously too {not to mention that it reminds me a lot of Lush’s ‘Fun’, the play dough soap / bubble combo aimed at kids, which we love}. It’s soft, squishy, and so much fun.
