Oil the slide, or you could increase the slope of the slide. Increasing the slope would decrease the normal force, which would decrease friction.

Hope this helps! If you need anymore help, LET ME KNOW!

Make the surface of the slide smoother, Rough surfaces produce more friction and smooth surfaces reduce friction.
