How to make fake snot : Helping the bored kids out over he holidays

What more fun do you need for bored kids this summer break, than being able to make them fake snot. This is a gooey, gross variation of the traditional slime recipe, great for Halloween and other occasions requiring snot. Thanks go out to Jamie from twitter, for finding this Time Required: A Few Minutes

Instructions:

1. Stir 1/8 cup borax into 500 ml warm water. It's okay if some borax remains undissolved. Allow solution to cool to room temperature. 
2. In a separate container, stir 2 spoonfuls of glue into 3 spoonfuls of water. White glue will give you opaque snot (more booger than snot); glue gel will produce you translucent slimy snot. 
3. Stir a couple of drops of food coloring into the glue mixture. 
4. Add a spoonful of the borax solution to the glue mixture. 
5. Stir (if in a bowl) or squish (if in a baggie). 
6. Have fun with your snot!

Tips:

• Elmer's glue is a non-toxic, water-based white glue or a non-toxic blue or clear gel. Another brand may be substituted. 
• A little yellow food coloring could be added for that extra sickly touch. 
• Don't eat or inhale the snot. 
• Borax isn't particularly toxic, but isn't good for you either. 
• Borax is found in the household cleaner or laundry section of the store. 
• It's commonly used as a detergent booster. 
• Wash your hands after playing with your snot.
• Also wash  walls, doors, sofa's, windows, pets, baby sister, letter box, brothers bed, after playing with your snot. 
• Don't worry about the stuff hidden under mums pillow, that will be okay
