31 Days of Halloween: Spooky SLIMYGLOOP Mix'Ems!

Written by James Zahn

If you have kids, there's a solid chance that slime is something of a fixture in your home at this point. Yes, every time I write about the slime craze I'm reminded of the fantastic He-Man and The Masters of the Universe Evil Horde Slime Pit that I once received as a kid but never got to play with (it was taken back to the store after a warning about staining was noted on the box). Decades later, my oldest daughter is all about the slime, from do-it-yourself kits to ready-made tubs. The consistency and texture varies greatly, but one regular purchase has been SLIMYGLOOP from Horizon Group USA. We just recently purchased a DIY Mermaid Slime Kit, but for the Halloween season they have something even better... ready-made Spooky SLIMYGLOOP MIX'EMS.

With these, kids can "skip the mess" (something The Rock Father appreciates) and get straight into the gloopy-action, digging into the ready-made spooky SLIMYGLOOP. According to our resident slime expert, "it's fun and satisfying," so that's a solid recommendation from the 9-year-old Gloop Technician. Each package comes with a pair of spooky bats, some shiny ghosts and a collection of glow-in-the-dark beads. Kids can add those into the mix to squish, stretch and monster mash it up, and when the fun is done, back into the reusable storage container it goes!

Geared toward kids ages 3 and up, each package of Spooky SLIMYGLOOP MIX'EMS is available for around $5 at Target and Party City stores.
