Provide your child with positive emotions by giving him a lizun - a toy whose prototype is a ghost from the popular film of the end of the last century “Ghostbusters”. Like that funny cast, slim stretches, spreads and does not have a constant shape.
Although this toy can be bought at any children's store, it is also easy to make it yourself. You decide what density and color to make a slime. There are many options for making a slime at home without PVA glue. Below we consider a few of these.
We make a slime from detergents
How to make a slime from shampoo without PVA glue? This is really easy. To make it, you will need the components that are found in every home:
- shampoo;
- shower gel or dishwashing liquid.
To get started, select a container where in equal proportions mix shampoo and shower gel (dishwashing liquid). It is important that the funds do not contain granules, then the lizun will turn out to be transparent. After mixing, until you get a homogeneous mass, and then put the container with the mixture in the refrigerator.
The very next day, the toy can be handed over to the child. But it is necessary to ensure that he does not pull the slime in his mouth, and after the game he washed his hands. Such a lizun should be stored in a refrigerator in a closed container. It should also be thrown away when a lot of debris sticks to it. Because it is because of it, the lizun loses its properties. In addition, the maximum shelf life is one month.
Flour lick
This is a relatively safe slime that is suitable for even small children to play. Moreover, if natural dyes are used instead of food colors. Although in this case the toy will not be so bright.
Now we will consider how to make a slime without glue PVA and tetraborate. As for the previous recipe, you will need materials that are at hand for any hostess:
- flour;
- hot water;
- cold water;
- dyes.
How to make a slime without glue PVA? First take a bowl or any other deep container. Sift into it two glasses of flour, so the mass will be uniform and easier to cook. Then add cold water, and then hot, but not boiling water, about a quarter cup each. Now you need to mix the mixture to a uniform consistency, it is important that there are no lumps in it.
Then add a few drops of dye: food or natural - it depends on your desire. Mix the sticky mixture again. Then put the container in the refrigerator for several hours. When the slime has completely cooled, it can be handed over to the child for the game.
Lizun from the water
How to make a slime from water without PVA glue? Consider another option for creating a toy. It is incredibly easy to manufacture and is considered the most environmental. For this you will need:
- warm water;
- starch (may be corn);
- dye.
Making toys
How to make a slime without glue PVA? In equal proportions, mix warm water and starch until a homogeneous (without lumps) mass. Add dye and mix thoroughly again, after which form balls from the resulting mass. And now - the slime is ready.
It is important to remember that the temperature of the water should not be room or cold - then it is more difficult to knead the slime. In addition, do not put too much starch, because of this the slim can become hard.
Plasticine Lizun
How to make a slime without sodium and PVA glue? There are tons of ways. Now let's get acquainted with the next of them. The advantage of plasticine slim is that it does not blur, keeping the look that you gave it. Use such materials for its manufacture:
- edible gelatin;
- plasticine.
How to make a slime without PVA? First you need a metal bowl. Type cold water into it. There, dissolve the gelatin in the proportion indicated on its packaging. Next, leave it to infuse for an hour. After the specified time, put the bowl on the fire - the liquid should begin to boil. As soon as this happens, it must be removed from the fire.
Next, you need to warm up plasticine in your hands (about 100 grams). Then you need to pour water (50 ml) into a plastic container. Then use a spatula to mix it with plasticine. Now pour gelatin into plasticine and knead until you get a homogeneous mass. And the final stage of manufacturing - put the mixture in the refrigerator until it cools completely.
And some more manufacturing tips
We figured out how to make a slime without PVA glue and starch, but it does not always turn out right away right away. Therefore, we will further consider the options and reasons for why and what should be done if the slim turned out to be wrong.
Naturally, much depends on the quality of the materials used in the manufacture of the slime, their proportions are also important. In the recipes they are indicated with approximately no accuracy, and therefore you have room here for experiments with the consistency of lizun.
What to do if the uniformity of the slime is broken? In this case, it is worth kneading it well for several minutes. After which it will become viscous and uniform.
If it is too sticky - it reaches for a spoon with threads, and sticks to the fingers so that it just does not lag behind - it means that the mixture needs to be a little liquefied. A small amount of liquid starch or plain water will help you, depending on the method of making the slime that you have chosen.
Maybe vice versa, the mass stretches, but it does not stick to the fingers. The reason in this case is an excess of fluid in the slime. If this happens, then you should drain the excess powder solution, starch or water. Or you can add some binding material, such as flour. Then again knead the resulting mass.
Little conclusion
Now you know how to make a slime without PVA. After you have made the toy, you should make sure that your beloved child does not throw a lizun into the wall, otherwise there will be greasy spots on the wallpaper. And from playing slim on fleecy surfaces, hairs will stick to the toy.
It is important to know that its shelf life is on average one and a half to two weeks. And in between games, the lizun should be stored in the refrigerator, but not in the freezer. At the same time, do not forget to place it in a container and close it with a lid or in a plastic bag. This is done so that it does not dry out due to contact with open air.
Also, to extend the service of the slim, you can wipe it with alcohol, removing the adhering debris. Do not wash it in the sink - you risk washing the lizun down the drain. But if he began to lose his properties, just add a little water to it.
And most importantly, you need to remember: always after playing with a lizun you need to wash your hands and those parts of the body with which it came into contact with soap. So that the child does not have an allergic reaction.
