Slime is a toy that came into fashion at the end of the last century. This event was preceded by the premiere of an animated film about ghostbusters. Among the main characters of the cartoon was Lizun - a spreading, stretching and shape-changing creature. In this article I will tell you how to make slime at home without and with sodium tetraborate.
In consistency, the toy, which was named handgam, resembles jelly, but does not melt in the hands. And although more than a dozen years have passed since its inception, it is still popular among children and adolescents.
You can buy a slime in any toy store, but the factory product contains chemical components, the contact of which with the baby's skin does not cause delight in caring parents. Therefore, many are interested in home-made technology, because a do-it-yourself slime is safer. This toy also relieves stress, has a positive effect on the functioning of the nervous system, develops fine motor skills and creativity.
In this article, I will consider popular ways to create a slime from scrap materials. They differ in the duration of execution, the composition of the ingredients, the consistency and quality of the finished product, and the level of complexity.
Recipe for transparent slime without sodium tetraborate and PVA
Since the toy is intended for children, safety comes first. To create a slime, I advise you to use a recipe based on flour. It is simple and allows you to create handgs in a matter of minutes.
COMPONENTS:
- Flour.
- Hot water.
- Cold water.
- Food colors set.
Preparation:
- Pour two cups of sifted flour into a small container, add 0.25 cups of cool water and a little hot water, but not boiling water.
- Mix the resulting mixture thoroughly until smooth. Make sure there are no lumps.
- Add a few drops of food coloring to a homogeneous mass and stir until the composition acquires a uniform color.
- Remove the sticky mixture in the refrigerator for 3 hours. Remove the cooled mixture from the refrigerator and knead it well with your hands. The slime is ready.
Video recipe
Since working with flour often contaminates clothes, I recommend making a slime in an apron. As for me, creating a viscous toy is a great experience for those who do not know what to do when they are bored.
How to make a slime from shampoo and water
There are several bottles of shampoo in every bathroom to help people take care of their hair. But some craftsmen have found another use for this tool and use it to create a handgam. And indeed, from shampoo and water, homemade slime is obtained in a matter of minutes.
COMPONENTS:
- Shampoo - 100 ml.
- Water - 100 ml.
- Starch - 200 g.
Preparation:
- Combine starch, water and shampoo in a small container, mix thoroughly.
- Send the resulting mixture to the refrigerator for 12 hours. After the time has elapsed, the toy is ready.
Video experience
The shelf life when stored in a closed container in the refrigerator is one month. If you want the toy to have a more viscous consistency, replace the starch with Titan glue.
The easiest way at home
There are many ways to create a slime. The easiest option is considered to be the use of baking soda and dishwashing detergent. And since the composition includes household chemicals, look after the child while playing, and then wash your hands.
COMPONENTS:
- Soda.
- Water.
- Dishwashing liquid.
- Food coloring.
Preparation:
- Pour some dish liquid into a small container. Since there is no specific dosage, add water or household chemicals while mixing the components to loosen mucus.
- Add baking soda to the dishwashing liquid and stir. If the composition is thick, dilute with water and stir. Use the correct food coloring to achieve the desired color.
It may not work the first time, but with practice you will learn how to create wonderful slimes from baking soda and dishwashing detergent at home. These skills will come in handy. For example, you can make a birthday present for your friend and cheer her up a little.
DIY slime from soap and toothpaste
Do you want to become the owner of a slime? Make it yourself using toothpaste and liquid soap as your main ingredients. Such a toy will diversify your life and provide an opportunity for realizing your creative potential.
COMPONENTS:
- Liquid soap - 20 ml.
- Toothpaste - 20 ml.
- Flour - 5 teaspoons.
Preparation:
- Squeeze out the toothpaste into a small metal container, add liquid soap and stir until smooth.
- Gradually add flour to the resulting composition. First, knead the mixture with a spoon, then complete the procedure with your hands.
- At the very end, slightly moisten the slime with water and remember a little more with your hands.
As you can see, it is not difficult to make a toy from hygiene products that is popular all over the world. She will help in the development and realization of fantasy. It is also a great replacement for purchased plasticine.
Making slime from starch and hydrogen peroxide
This method is incredibly popular as it does not involve a lot of money. The result is a solid toy that jumps beautifully. So do not be discouraged if such a slime does not live up to expectations.
COMPONENTS:
- Water - 1 glass.
- Starch - 100 g.
- PVA glue - 100 g.
- Food coloring.
- Hydrogen peroxide.
Preparation:
- Combine water and starch in a small container. As a result, you should get a mixture that resembles jelly in consistency. Add glue and stir.
- Add a few drops of hydrogen peroxide and some food coloring to the resulting mixture and stir. If the mass is thick, I advise you to add a little water.
Handgs made using this technology are light and airy. This is the merit of hydrogen peroxide. In terms of the ingredients used, they are really affordable and will help you save money.
Slime from plasticine, water and gelatin
Not every home has PVA glue, starch or sodium tetraborate (borax). But to create a slime, these components are not needed, because it can be made from ordinary plasticine. If there are schoolchildren or preschool children in the house, this viscous mass will certainly be found.
COMPONENTS:
- Plasticine - 100 g.
- Food gelatin - 15 g.
- Water - 250 ml.
- Metal container, plastic bowl, stick.
Preparation:
- Soak gelatin in cool water. To do this, pour gelatin into a metal container and add 200 ml of water. When the gelatin swells, place the container on the stove and bring to a boil over low heat, then remove.
- Take the plasticine in your hand and knead until it is warm and soft. Put the softened piece of plasticine in a plastic container, add the remaining water. Stir well with a plastic spatula.
- Put the two together. Add slightly cooled gelatin into a mixture of water and plasticine, stir. Send the resulting mass to the refrigerator for 30 minutes. After the time has elapsed, the toy is ready.
Video experience
The toy made according to this recipe is famous for its enviable durability. Just make sure that the kids during the game do not touch the wallpaper with the slime. It is extremely problematic to remove the traces left by the handgam.
How to make slime from sodium tetraborate and glue
A toy made from sodium tetraborate (Borax) practically does not differ from the store version, but since it contains chemical components, we are not talking about safety. Therefore, I advise you to play with such a slime carefully.
COMPONENTS:
- Borax - 0.5 teaspoon.
- Stationery glue - 30 g.
- Yellow and green food coloring.
- Water.
Preparation:
- Pour a glass of warm water into a small bowl, add sodium tetraborate. Mix thoroughly until the powder is completely dissolved.
- In the second container, combine half a glass of water, 5 drops of yellow and 2 drops of green dye and glue. Stir the ingredients until smooth.
- Stir a thin stream of sodium tetraborate solution into the glue mixture. As a result, the resulting mass will become viscous and playable.
Store the slime made according to this recipe in a closed container, as it is afraid of fresh air. Do not let your child take the toy in his mouth.
Homemade slime from pencil glue
Many of us are familiar with the glue stick. In kindergarten and school, it is used to create collages and appliques. It was also used in office work. It also makes a good slime. Read the cooking technology below.
COMPONENTS:
- Glue stick - 4 pcs.
- Boron (sodium tetraborate) - 1 teaspoon
- Flour.
- Food coloring.
Preparation:
- Take a glue stick, remove the rods and put them in a glass container. Soak them in the microwave or oven until they form a viscous mixture. Add a little dye to the mixture and mix.
- Dissolve a teaspoon of boron in a little water. Pour a small amount of the resulting liquid into the glue and stir. Add sodium tetraborate until you get the desired consistency.
You have learned the popular ways of making slime at home. Some of them are as simple as possible, others are based on the use of purchased components. It is difficult to say which of the recipes is better, only practice will help determine this.
In conclusion, I will share a few tips for creating and storing that will help extend the life of the handgam.
- To store the slime, use a jar with a tight-fitting lid, otherwise it will dry out. Keep the jelly-like product away from sunlight and heating radiators.
- Try to keep the slime out of contact with the fleecy surface while playing. Otherwise, hairs will stick to it, which will lead to the loss of its original structure and smoothness.
- Some manufacturing methods involve the use of glue and other strong odor materials. To eliminate them and give the slime a flavor, I advise you to add a few drops of essential oil or food flavoring to the composition.
- If you want to make a slime that glow in the dark, use fluorescent paint. Today it is not difficult to buy it.
- Experiment with the composition of the mixture. To make the slime stretch better, add a few drops of vinegar. Hydrogen peroxide will make the toy feel airy and not sticky, and the glycerin will make it slippery.
On this note, I finish the article on the creation of a slime. If you know of other methods, share in the comments. I hope, thanks to the information described, you will create a safe and educational toy that will fill your life with joy. Good luck!

Slime toys became fashionable at the end of the 20th century, after the release of the cartoon about ghostbusters on TV screens. One of the main characters there was Lizun - a strange creature that changed shape, stretched and spread. The toy has a jelly-like consistency, but does not melt in the hands. She received the name handgam and is still popular among children and adolescents.
Slime can be bought in toy stores, but many parents, fearing contact of the baby's skin with chemical components, prefer to make it with their own hands. Why is the slime so attractive to the children's audience? Let's take a closer look at this question:
- Having fun with a gel-like soft substance has a beneficial effect on the nervous system and relieves stress.
- The fun develops the child's creativity and fine motor skills.
There are several known options with which you can make a slime at home. All of them differ in the duration of performance, the quality and consistency of the toy, the composition of the ingredients and the complexity. The main criterion that you need to pay attention to when making your own slime is its complete safety for children. How to make slime at home so that the recipe is affordable and uncomplicated? This is what we will devote our article to.
So, before starting work, stock up on the following items:
- 1 pack of plasticine;
- 1 pack of edible gelatin;
- mixing container;
- a spatula for mixing ingredients;
- metal containers.
So, we take a metal dish and soak a pack of gelatin in it, fill it with cold water and leave it alone for 60 minutes. Then we heat the substance and, at the first boil, remove it from the heat. In a plastic plate, mix with a spatula 100 gr. plasticine softened in the hands and 50 ml of water.
Pour the swollen gelatin into the plasticine mixture and stir until a viscous plastic substance is obtained. We put the container in the refrigerator and wait until everything hardens. The slime is ready!
This option for making slime is environmentally friendly, which is why parents often focus on it. To get started, stock up on warm water and starch in equal proportions. Then they are thoroughly and for quite a long time mixed until a perfectly plastic and homogeneous consistency is formed.
To make the slime bright and interesting, you can add a dye to the raw material, which is used as potassium permanganate, brilliant green, gouache or any food coloring. Such a toy adheres perfectly to any surface, but the disadvantage is that it is not able to jump and spring. So, despite the complete safety, not all children will like this slime.
How to make a slime from shampoo (without titanium and PVA glue and without starch)
This is a fairly simple method, in which to create a slime, you need to take 200 ml of any shampoo (even the cheapest one) and 300 ml of Titan glue. Mix these 2 ingredients until a homogeneous mass is formed. It is better to do this in a tight bag, where shampoo is first poured, and then powdered glue is poured in a 2: 3 ratio.
The bag is tied securely and shaken. After the substance begins to thicken, leave the bag alone for 5-10 minutes. Then you can take out the mass and make slimes out of it. In the process of mixing, dyes can be added to the components: the slime will turn out to be funny and bright.
This method is considered one of the most popular, and the resulting fun has little difference from store toys. For work, prepare:
- paint (food coloring, gouache or brilliant green);
- fresh PVA glue (100 gr.).
- 4% borax or borax (sodium tetraborate) solution.
If you are wondering where to buy borax, then today it is not a problem. It is sold in any pharmacy, in stores with radio goods and chemical reagents.
Manufacturing steps:
- Warm water to room temperature and fill ¼ part of the glass.
- Gradually add PVA glue to the water. Important: the consistency of the slime depends on how much glue was used. If you want the toy to be more elastic, feel free to add more glue.
- Mix water and glue thoroughly.
- Now add sodium tetraborate. When using a solution, 1 vial is enough for you, and if a powder is purchased, then it is previously dissolved in a ratio of 0.5 tbsp. water to 1 tbsp. l. dry borax.
- It's time to add the dye.
- When everything is thoroughly mixed, pour the resulting mass into the bag and start crushing. The toy is ready!
Most often, children demand toys when their parents are not ready for it. And if you didn't have potassium tetraborate at home, then this method is for you! Keep in mind that such a slime will last only a few days, but more often it is not required. To work, you will need PVA glue, dye, mixing spatula and soda.
Important: if you plan to knead the slime with your hands, be sure to wear latex gloves. In a plastic container, mix 50 g. glue and ¼ cup lukewarm water, then add the dye and stir again thoroughly. Separately mix 1 tbsp. l. baking soda and ¼ cup room temperature water. Carefully pour the soda solution into the mixture of glue and water. After mixing, the slime is ready.
How to make slime without starch
The main component of such a toy is bread flour, so the slime is completely safe. To work you will need:
- hot and cold water;
- dye;
- flour.
Pour a couple of glasses of flour into a plastic bowl and cover with ¼ part of a glass of chilled water. Immediately after that, pour ¼ glass of hot water into the mixture, but never boiling water. Then everything is mixed until a plastic mass without lumps is obtained and, if necessary, a dye is added. The substance should feel sticky to the touch. Now it remains to put it in the refrigerator for 2 hours, and then feel free to play!
A cheap and effective method allows you to get a solid slime that does not change shape well, but jumps well. For work, take a dye, hydrogen peroxide, 100 gr. PVA glue, 100 gr. starch or soda and 1 glass of water.
In a plastic container, first mix starch with water (1: 1) until a jelly-like state, then add glue there and mix. It is necessary to add a small amount of hydrogen peroxide and a dye to the mass, mix everything again and get a light and airy toy.
Slime from alcohol
This original method assumes the presence of water, dye, polyvinyl alcohol and borax (sodium tetraborate). Important: Regular vodka or rubbing alcohol are not suitable, so don't even think about replacing ingredients.
Polyvinyl alcohol is a powdery substance that is mixed with water and put on fire. The mass is cooked for 40-45 minutes with constant stirring over very low heat, since it cannot be allowed to burn. Then the mixture should cool, while at this time, mix 1 cup of water and 2 tbsp. l. sodium tetraborate until completely dissolved. The resulting mixture must be filtered and then carefully poured into the alcohol mass in a 1: 3 ratio. Do you want a bright slime? Add the dye and start the game!
How to make slime from PVA, sodium tetraborate and water
This is the most difficult method, since it requires the purchase of special ingredients, but let's say right away that the result is the best in comparison with all of the proposed ones. You will need:
Slowly and in a thin stream, stirring constantly, pour PVA into the water.
Now it's the tetraborate's turn. If you bought a ready-made solution, then add the entire bottle (100 ml) to the mixture, but if there is powder available, dilute it to the required amount, following the instructions on the package (most often it is a tablespoon of powder in half a glass of water).
Stir in the resulting mixture, add the dye and transfer the mixture to a bag.
Now all that remains is to thoroughly knead the slime with your hands. It turns out exactly like the store version
Note! If the next time you want to make the slime more elastic, use a little more glue.
How to make a slime from washing powder
For this method, only liquid gel is suitable.
It in the volume of two tablespoons should be added to the quarters of a glass of PVA glue and dye mixed in a bowl beforehand, and then knead like a dough until the mass begins to take the desired shape well and becomes plastic.
Note!!! Work only with rubber gloves and wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after playing.
How to make a magnetic slime with your own hands
A mysterious light in the dark and the ability to be attracted to a magnet? Even older children will like such a slime, and making it is just as easy as in the previous versions.
You will need:
- sodium tetraborate;
- water;
- fresh PVA glue;
- iron oxide;
- dye with phosphorus;
- Neodymium magnets;
- convenient container.
Dissolve half a spoonful of tetraborate in a glass of water. Mix separately 30 gr. PVA and half a glass of water. Slowly pour in the phosphoric paint, then mix both mixtures until smooth. The slime is ready, the matter is small - it remains to endow him with the ability to be attracted to the magnet. To do this, level the resulting mass and sprinkle it with iron oxide, and then knead thoroughly.
If the toy didn't work out
Have you selected the right main ingredients, kneaded thoroughly, but the result is not the same? Do not despair. Remember that a lot depends on the manufacturer, and even a minimal deviation from the prescribed norm can give a negative result. Experiment and you will be able to achieve the perfect combination, and also keep in mind that:
- if the slime is too sticky, you need to add a little water and starch;
- if the toy stretches but does not stick to the surface, there is too much liquid in it, which means you need to add glue.
Be sure to try making a slime with your own hands. An interesting toy, which is also completely safe, will appeal to both adults and children.
Handgum is great fun for the whole family. This will not only delight the baby, but also bring the family together. Enjoy your health!
