How To Make Slime Without Borax

Pour an entire 5 oz bottle of clear glue into a bowl.

Add in ½ cup of water to the glue. Squeeze in a few drops of green food coloring and mix. Next, add ½ teaspoon baking soda and stir. Then, add in the green glitter (or as my kids call it, pixie dust).

Now, it is time to add the green sequins and those cute Tinker Bell toys. Add 1 tablespoon contact solution. The slime will begin to form instantly.

The slime mixture will be STICKY at this point, but don’t panic! Mix the solution in the bowl until it starts to take shape. Knead the slime until it is no longer sticky. Store in an airtight container.

As you can see, it is easy to make Tinkerbell slime without borax. If you have a Tinkerbell or Disney fanatic at home, they will be thrilled with this easy slime.

What Kids Learn Playing with Slime

Playing with slime is more than just fun for kids; it’s a hands-on way to explore textures and build sensory skills. It also encourages creativity as they experiment with colors, add-ins, and shapes.

Plus, it can spark problem-solving as they figure out how to mix and adjust the slime to get the perfect stretch or squish.

Tips For Making Slime

Tip 1: Mix your glue and water thoroughly before adding any other ingredients. This makes the base smooth and the texture consistent.

Tip 2: When adding green glitter and sequins, don’t be afraid to adjust the amount to match the level of sparkle and “pixie dust” you want. Just remember, a little goes a long way!

Tip 3: If the slime feels sticky after adding the contact solution, don’t panic! Keep kneading it, and it will eventually reach the right stretchy consistency. Patience is key!

FAQs For Slime Without Borax

Can I use regular white glue instead of clear glue for this recipe?

Yes, you can use regular white glue, but the slime won’t have the same transparent and sparkly look that clear glue gives. It will still be fun to play with, just a little different in appearance!

What parts of making slime can my kids help with?

Kids can help measure and mix the glue, water, and glitter, as well as add the sequins and Tinkerbell figures. Make sure an adult handles the contact solution since it’s key to getting the slime’s texture just right.

What’s the best way to store the slime so it lasts longer?

Store the slime in an airtight container or sealed plastic bag when not in use. This helps keep it stretchy and prevents it from drying out. Always make sure hands are clean before playing with it too!
