Fun Slime Toys | Personal Toy Review

Slime is definitely one popular toy nowadays, I can see it everywhere online and a lot of kids, even adults simply have fun playing and manipulating it. This is the first time that we are going to get a hold of this toy and we can't wait to try it. I am familiar with this product as I have seen a lot of it being featured in toy channels on YouTube and I think looking at it, they seem like fun and interesting toys.

I've always thought about buying and trying it out but I haven't really found any of it in stores around us. I haven't looked in online stores as well, then one time, as I was in this school supplies store, I saw these slime toys for the first time and thought about trying and buying some to find out for myself what makes this toy very popular among most people nowadays (both kids and adults alike). 



There were several slime toys there in a variety of containers but this one that come in this cute animal design containers such as: panda bear, cat & tiger caught my attention. They come in 6 colors: green, white, blue, pink, purple, and yellow. I bought 2 pieces of each colors but they run out of colors blue and pink so I substitute it with another one that come in a plain small square container with the same colors. If you can't find it in any store near you, there are a variety of slime toy products to choose from online.

PLAYING WITH SLIME

When playing with slime and kids mess them on their clothes, be sure to wash the clothes immediately as these slime can permanently stick on and stain clothing when left without washing for a couple of days or for a long time, Click Here For Tips On How To Get Slime Out Of Clothing In A Few Simple Steps.


I can say that these slime are really cool, fun, and relaxing to touch and squeeze and they also smell good, this one I bought smells like liquid soap and shampoo. It feels good than the regular type of clay. They have this jelly rubber type of texture to them and they are soft and elastic.

CREATIVITY WITH SLIME

Kids can try playing with it in many ways. We try to play with them using molding tools of a regular modeling clay. It's really fun to mold and cut them, they have that slight crunchy sound when you push and cut them with the clay molds. 


I think they look like a gummy candy after cutting them with a clay mold cutter. It's also fun to try creating shapes and forms out of it just like a regular clay. Kids can roll it in or mix in small particles such as glitter dust, colored sand, or any other tiny material compatible for it, try experimenting and use any tools or supplies with it for more fun and creativity.

TRY SLIME IF YOU HAVEN'T 

I love it and Lauren enjoyed it too. We had fun playing, cutting and creating all sorts of shapes with it. I think I will buy more slime next time, if you're thinking about gifts for kids, this makes a great educational gift that promotes fine motor skills, focus, mindfulness, creativity and more.
