Making your own kid-safe, and edible slime, is always a fun activity to do with your child. While this slime is safe for taste-testing, it is not recommended to be used as a snack – if your child does want to give it a taste or a lick, it is absolutely fine though.
While marshmallow candy-cane slime can be made and enjoyed any time during the year, candy canes seem to be more plentiful around the holidays, and lends a bit of holly jolly cheer to the activity. You can always replace the candy-canes with other types of hard candies, mini chocolate or butterscotch chips.
