Children are delighted with new toys, and if you create them yourself, it is also useful for creative thinking. How to create a toy yourself, spending a minimum on it?
Slime is an ingenious invention, an anti-stress toy. Pediatricians and in one voice shout about the benefits of slime or slime. Children develop creative thinking and fine motor skills of their pens.
If it is not possible to buy, then you can always cook it at home. To do this, buy the necessary drugs. Slime is made from chemical products, and before making it, the parent must make sure that the child is not allergic to the constituent elements.
Manufacturing principle
Before the procedure, you need to wash your hands so that excess particles of dust and dirt do not get into the mixture.
Pre-Prepared Essential Supplements:
· Stationery glue - 80 grams;
Sodium tetroborate - 30 grams (but add only 2-3 drops);
· Hand cream - 50 grams (teaspoon).
All the constituent elements are mixed at the same time in a bowl. If the slime is prepared in large quantities, then a mixer will come to the rescue.
When the mass began to thicken, knead it with your hands. This will relieve the unpleasant feeling of stickiness.
Did not help? This means that an activator is added (a solution of water with tetroborate).
Preparation of the activator. Pour the remaining tetroborate into half a glass of water and place the resulting solution in a tube from any liquid. You can use the activator regularly. If over time the slime turns into a soft and sticky substance and floats in all directions, 5-10 drops of solution will save the situation.
Slime is ready!
Impurities
If desired, children add bright dyes or decorative elements. To use dyes, an oilcloth is purchased on which the child will play. Like plasticine, slime leaves colored marks. For coloring, paints are used that surround everywhere:
· Beet juice;
· Brilliant green, a couple of drops are enough;
Iodine or potassium permanganate;
· Gouache or watercolors.
Small foam balls can be added for a massage effect. Beads are not good, they fly out of the slime.
For a pleasant smell, flavors are mixed in. They are both purchased and homemade. The toothpaste will add a mint scent or a couple of drops of scented oils. And mainly they use fragrances intended for slimes.
It is necessary to ensure that the child does not leave the slime in the open air, it will dry out, and the baby will be upset. Let him put it in a food container.
If the slime gets on clothes or hair, it will leave marks. And how to get rid of chewing gum is also not easy.
There are many types of slime making, for example:
· Jigli;
· Bater;
Flophy;
· Coca Cola;
· Popcorn;
· Glossy.
Good luck!
