Slime is a sensory toy made from glue and other ingredients which stimulates learning, develops motor skills and is fun and engaging to play with. It can also be used as an emotional regulation tool to help reduce anxiety and stress.
Have you ever wondered what the difference is between butter and cloud slime, or bingsu and floam? If you answered yes, you'll want to keep reading!
🔴 Glossy
Glossy slimes are the most basic form of slime. They are beginner friendly and need to be reactivated often. Great for bubble pops and poking as well as stretching!
🔵 Clear
Clear slimes are best for decorating as sprinkles and shimmers will be easier to see. Clear slimes will have to sit for a few days to become clear again after play or reactivation. Play with super clean hands.
🟠 Butter
Smooth and buttery! The clay in butter slimes thickens up the slime a bit and makes it great for holding, while still being stretchy and often fluffy to play with.
When left to sit for long periods of time, it’s normal for the clay to rise to the top - this usually means it's ready to be reactivated.
🟣 Cloud
Cloud slimes are the most beginner friendly slime as they are not sticky and therefore, less messy. They have a similar texture to kinetic sand.
The trick to getting the perfect cloud slime drizzle is to pull and stretch the slime to add air into it before letting it fall. It’s normal for cloud slime to be damp.
🟣 Cloud-Cream
Cloud-cream slimes are both fluffy and creamy. Just like cloud slimes, cloud-creams last a long time.
💖 Bingsu
Bingsu slimes are very crunchy and textured. They use tube shaped beads called bingsu beads which make lots of crunchy bubble pops. What bingsu slimes lack in stretch, they make up for in crunch.
💖 Floam
Floam slimes have foam beads inside, which make them great for crunchy bubble pops and crackles. Some fall out is normal and can be expected.
💖 Snow Fizz
Snow fizz slimes are one of the most crunchy and textured slimes and generally don’t have fallout. They can be described as icy in texture.
🟢 Jelly
Jelly slimes are thicker than other clear slime types and have a slightly fizzy look.
🟢 Jelly Cube
Jelly cube slimes contain small chunks of squish-able sponge. These cubes are meant to be popped and mixed through during play, which adds a unique sensory experience.
In the slime world they’re referred to as Jelly Cubes because when mixed with slime, they soak it up and have a similar texture to real jelly.
