A fun bath bomb recipe for kids
In a large mixing bowl, add the baking soda, citric acid, Epsom salts and cornstarch. Mix dry ingredients together.
In a microwave safe cup melt the coconut oil in the microwave until it is liquid.
Add the polysorbate 80 and bubblegum scented oil to the coconut oil and mix well.
Pour the liquids into the dry mix. Using your hands, start mixing it all together. You may want to use disposable gloves. It is up to you.
Make sure all the lumps are broken down and everything is mixed together really well. The mixture is perfect when it holds together when you press it into your hands and feels like wet sand.
Mix in 1 tablespoon of the pink powdered mica colorant and pink glitter. Mix well.
Sprinkle a bit of the pink pearls into one side of the bath bomb molds. Add the bath bomb mixture on top until the mixture is heaped up. Fill the other side with the bath bombs mixture until it is also loosely heaped. Press the two halves of the molds together and grind gently to remove any excess mixture. Gently tap each side of the mold to release the bombs.
Allow the bath bombs to dry for at least 24 hours in a warm, dry area.
