Remember playing with slime when you were a kid? Of course, the slime that you buy at the store has a few chemicals in it that you may not want your kids exposed to. A better way is to make your own homemade slime and we have a really easy recipe for you to do just that.
You will need 1 cup of cornstarch and about a cup of water. Mix the two together, preferably in a stainless steel bowl, until you get a doughy mixture. You can add cornstarch or water as needed to ensure that you are getting the right consistency.
Once you get the slime however thick or thin you want it, just add green food coloring – or you can make it whatever color you want! This is a much more natural approach to slime and it feels just like the stuff that you find in the store. Kids (and even adults) will love it! Photo Funkyplanet.

I think I know hot=w to answer all your questions. I have made a lot of slime before. There are certain recipes that will last longer than other (not including borax) If you use glue,a pinch of baking soda, and contact lens solution it will form. That happens to be the best method. It will stay for a very long time if you store well like an airtight container. Hope this helped 🙂

All you need to make safe slime at home without borax is glue, baking soda, contact solution, and a little glitter. It's a fun and safe activity for kids.
Borax/sodium borate – makes the slime wet. This is the ingredient that most people are concerned about. If it gets on the skin or is left on the skin, it can cause irritation, especially if it comes in contact with an open wound.If it's ingested, it can cause nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea.
Mix together 1 cup (236.58 mL) of school glue and 1 tbsp (14 g) of baking soda. Pour 1 cup (236.58 mL) of school glue into any kind of bowl. Add 1 tbsp (14 g) of baking soda and mix it in thoroughly using a metal spoon. This recipe creates slime that has a consistency similar to slime made using Borax.
This “snow” is made by combining shaving cream with either baking soda or cornstarch to create a light, fluffy, snow-like mixture. It naturally feels cool to the touch, and can be packed and molded like the real thing.
Always supervise children while making slime. Keep borax out of reach of small children, and scoop it carefully so that less dust is created (the particles can be irritating to eyes, throats, and noses). Wear gloves when mixing slime, and wash hands and arms right after.
