If you are interested in making slime at home here is a recipe

Slime

Borax, White Glue, Water, Food Coloring , Zip lock baggie.

How to make your slime:

1. Completely dissolve 1 Tbs. Borax (found in the laundry isle) in 1 Cup Water
2. Separately mix 1/4 cup white glue & 1/4 cup water
3. Mix ½ cup of the borax mixture to ½ cup of the glue mixture in your Zip lock.
4. Add a couple drops of food coloring. (mix food coloring to make what ever color you want!!)
5. Zip the bag & knead mixture.

Tips:
Keep your slime in a sealed bag in the ‘fridge when not playing with it. It may eventually dry out or grow mold. Just throw it away & start again! It should last up to around two months maybe longer as long as kept properly!!!

Explanation:
Borax acts as a cross-linking agent or "connector" for the glue (polyvinyl acetate) molecules.
The glue molecules join together to form even larger molecules called polymers: result - a thickened gel very similar to slime.

 

You simply can adjust the thickness of the slime with more or less water and more or less glue.  Just have to play with the ingredients to get the right consistency for whatever you're doing.

 

Slime was originally made with green gelatin and cream of wheat, and later oatmeal. Shampoo was later added to help the slime wash out. By the late 90s most of the slime used was either applesauce colored green, or an undisclosed liquid that just resembled water colored green.  You can still use a thinned down version of KNOX UNFLAVORED and unsweetened gelatin to get the effect with whatever food coloring necessary for the proper look.  JELLO would work if you plan on eating it but it's a sugary mess and draws bugs and other critters.  AND you know you can even FROTH gelatin just by mixing it with a hand mixer if that's a requirement.  Gooey fun as I said.
