SLIME CARE 101

1. Wash Your Hands:

  • Clean hands prevent dirt or oils from transferring to the slime.

2. Use a Clean Surface:

  • Play with slime on a smooth, clean surface to avoid picking up debris.

3. Storage:

  • Keep slime in a sealed container when not in use to prevent drying out or attracting dust.
  • Store in a cool, dry place.

4. Avoid Heat:

  • Slime can become sticky or melt in heat. Keep away from direct sunlight or hot surfaces.

5. Check for Contaminants:

  • Regularly inspect your slime for any foreign objects, dirt, or hair. Remove and clean as necessary.

6. Avoid Mixing Different Slimes:

  • Some slimes may not mix well and could result in a less enjoyable texture.

7. Fixing Overactivated Slime:

  • If slime becomes too stiff or tough, add a tiny bit of water or a slime softener. Knead until desired consistency is achieved.

8. Fixing Sticky Slime:

  • If slime is too sticky, add a small amount of activator (borax solution, contact lens solution) gradually until it reaches the desired consistency.

9. Keep Away from Fabric:

  • Slime can stick to fabric and be challenging to remove. Play on non-fabric surfaces.

10. Be Cautious with Fragile Items: - Slime can pick up small particles that might scratch delicate surfaces or screens. Avoid contact with sensitive items.

11. Supervise Younger Users: - For young children, always supervise slime play to ensure they don't ingest or misuse the slime.

12. Don't Ingest: - Slime is not meant to be eaten. Ensure it is kept away from the mouth and is used only for sensory play.

13. Dispose Responsibly: - If slime becomes contaminated or starts to degrade, dispose of it responsibly according to local waste guidelines.

14. Experiment Safely: - When adding embellishments or textures to slime, ensure they are safe and non-toxic.

15. Be Creative: - Feel free to experiment with colors, scents, and textures. There are endless possibilities for customizing your slime.

By following these tips, you can maintain the quality and enjoyment of your slime while ensuring a safe and clean play experience.
