If you know anything about me, you probably know I am a huge Marvel fan. I was so excited to see Captain Marvel in theaters, and introduce my daughters to her. They now, just like their mama, love Carol Danvers (how could you not?) so they have been begging for crafts themed around her.
If you haven’t read my article where I discuss the MCU changes from the Captain Marvel comic books, you should check it out and see why we love her so much.
Skrull Shape-Shifter Slime Easy DIY Recipe
Probably my all time favorite thing about Captain Marvel, was the introduction of the Skrulls! These guys are amazing because they can shape-shift in to anything and anyone they want. You never know who is who, and who to trust.
This is the set up of Secret Invasion in the Marvel Comics and I truly hope we see this story come to the big screen eventually. And I think we will. Because they are my favorite alien species in all things Marvel, I themed my slime around them! This Skrull Shape-Shifter Slime is easy – and will only take a few minutes! Kids are sure to love it.
Supplies
- 1/2 cup clear glue
- 1/2 cup water
- Neon green food color
