Slime Lab
Hands-on science with a creative twist.
Step inside Slime Lab HQ — the top-secret lab where new slime ideas are discovered every day.
In this 4-week mini project, your learner explores textures, tests ingredients, investigates variables, and designs a slime product ready for “release.”
Whether they love sensory play, experiments, or creative design, Slime Lab gives them a complete slime journey from first squish to final formula.
About This Mini Project
Slime Lab invites learners to experiment like scientists and create like designers.
Across four playful weeks, they’ll:
make and test their first slime
observe how slime changes and behaves
explore variables by tweaking one thing at a time
design a custom slime based on a creative client brief
build a DIY slime kit
launch their final slime with a name, label, and formula
Each step is flexible, neuro-affirming, and designed to let your learner choose how they record and share their discoveries. Their Slime Lab Log becomes a personalised record of data, tests, sketches, reflections, and creations.
This mini project is light, joyful, and accessible — perfect for learners who thrive on hands-on tasks, sensory exploration, or creative science.
What Your Learner Will Do
Over four weeks, your learner will:
Join Slime HQ as a Junior Slime Developer
Create and describe their first test slime
Collect data through stretch and bounce trials
Compare batches and notice how variables affect slime
Invent a customer and design a slime to match their brief
Use planners and templates like the Batch Tracker, Scorecard, Slime Brief Generator, and Pitch Planner to support their thinking and creativity
Build a DIY Slime Kit and prepare their final slime for launch
Celebrate with a final reflection and showcase
Each week offers core missions plus optional bonus missions, so your learner can go deep, go wide, or keep things simple.

neuro-affirming adjustments
You get everything you need to run a joyful, low-stress, registration-ready mini unit.
