After our Christmas Fybogel Slime fun I knew we would repeat the activity again for day 6 of our 31 Day Sensory Play Challenge. We still had plenty of Fybogel Sachets (affiliate link) left over after suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum. This time we added a twist by mixing in magnetic letters into the slime.
Making Alphabet Fybogel Slime is straight forward. Mix 4 sachets with approximately 400ml of water and pour it into a saucepan. Stir the Fybogel continuously for 5-10 minutes on a medium heat. Eventually the mixture will stick to the spoon. I emptied a packet of small magnetic letters in a bowl and poured the Fybogel mixture on top. We waited for the mixture to cool before play time.
The letters set into the Fybogel slime well. I love the texture of the slime – it feels sticky yet does not stay on your hands.
Adam enjoyed watching the Alphabet Fybogel slime slow fall to the table.
Adam doesn’t mind the touch of the Fybogel either and he soon took out several of the magnetic letters. He placed them in a line and kept telling me their sounds. Sensory fun and letter recognition reinforcement all in one activity!

Oh my goodness, this has made me smile, I used to be a nurse and give patients this, I never thought about playing with it! Ooh, if only I was still a nurse, the possibilities! 😉
Great way of playing with letters and sensory fun.

This worked perfectly!!! Took 10 minutes to make and it was played with for AGES. Lovely smell and feel, we did it with numbers and made a slime number cake! :o)
Hi there! Can this be made and kept for the next day?
I put it in an air tight container then in the fridge and it was ok the next day.
