30 youth in two classes created two, homemade, ooey gooey slimes with Taylor County 4-H. Youth learned about the different ingredients and their purposing in the slime making process. They learn to measure, mix, and knead their creations. This activity focused on fine and gross motor skill development, sensory learning, and communication skills for the participants. 

Our youth participants came from all three school systems in the county and one fourth of the participants and their guardians were new to 4-H and Cooperative Extension. After the program, new families were eager to learn more about Extension. They asked about adult programming, additional youth programs and how to stay up to date on the last information from the Extension Office.
