Slime

Slime has leveraged its squishy, squashy, tactile appeal to become a beloved plaything for generations of kids. From its commercial introduction in 1976, Slime has gone on to become an element of other playthings and a television star in its own right. Manufacturers produce slime under various brand names and with certain proprietary twists, but slime has also proliferated as a do-it-yourself project. Most importantly, slime encourages play that is messy and experimental.
