A soothing cross between slime and play dough, this pudding slime recipe is made with just 3 simple ingredients and smells almost good enough to eat! (And it's taste-safe!)
Add instant pudding mix and half of your cornstarch to a mixing bowl. Add 1/3 cup water and stir until dough begins to form.
Slowly add the rest of your cornstarch, stirring as you go.
When dough becomes difficult to stir with a spoon, finish mixing by hand.
If the mixture is still sticky, add more cornstarch. If dough is too thick, add more liquid - until you have the perfect texture.

Notes
Texture Fix: Add more cornstarch if sticky or a little water if too dry; knead 3–5 minutes to reach the right consistency.
SAFETY: While this recipe is made with edible ingredients, it is not meant to be eaten as a food item (cornstarch keeps it from tasting good). Always supervise kids when making or playing with playdough.
Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge; rehydrate with a little water before reuse.
Shelf Life: Best for 1–2 uses; discard if dirty or any signs of mold.
Cleanup: Wash hands and surfaces with warm soapy water.
