 Elmer's School Glue: A Classic, Trusted Product Oct 28, 2009
By Bryan Carey
"Bryan Carey"
Elmer's School Glue is a product designed with youth in mind. This adhesive product has been around for several decades, is teacher- recommended, and is the glue of choice for those under the age of seven. The reasons for its popularity are many, but chief among them are the non- toxic properties and the fact that this glue can be washed out of clothing. These qualities make it the perfect choice for youngsters who like to make crafts but tend to get a little clumsy with their handling of adhesives.
Adhesive ability is an important quality in any glue and in this respect, Elmer's School Glue is good, but it cannot bond the way other, more powerful glues can bond. Of course, the product is intended for use by young children so there is really no need for it to be an all- powerful adhesive product. For its intended use (gluing paper, cloth, etc) it works perfectly fine, so there should be no problem with items becoming unglued over time. It can be used to glue other things, like wood, but the bond may not be as strong and the time to dry is usually longer than with other glues.
Elmer's School Glue requires only a small amount of glue for bonding paper, cloth, and the other items for which it is intended. A thin layer is all that is required to complete the task and the application of the glue can actually serve as a learning experience for many young children. Kids will eventually learn to squeeze out just the right amount of glue and learn how to spread it out just right. Depending on their age, some youngsters will overdo the glue, but there is nothing to worry about with Elmer's School Glue. It cleans up more easily than other glues and it washes out of clothing, so there is nothing to worry about.
Kids love crafts and parents love peace of mind. Elmer's School Glue brings both sides together with this classic adhesive product. It is inexpensive, easy to apply, non- toxic, and cleans up with relative ease. It may take a little longer to dry than other glues but the peace of mind it brings to parents is easily worth this minor inconvenience.

Gotta Love Elmer's Jan 30, 2011
By AL
I've tried many other glues but will never give up on my Elmer's. Although it won't fix everything if you've got an item for a quick fix-it, Elmer's always does the job. Remember to clean up residue from inside the cap to guarantee glue flow; otherwise, it gets clogged.

Nice glue for school Sep 27, 2009
By c2
If your school requires the school glue, then this is your best bet. However, if they don't specify "school glue," be sure to get the Elmer's multi-purpose glue over this one. The school glue doesn't adhere as much as the multi does, which can be important for all those different projects that the kids do during the year. Plus, it's better for use at home after the year is over since there's more to glue than just paper in the normal household. It's great for what it was intended, washes out beautifully, but again, if you're stuck between the two, go for the multi-purpose and it washes well too!

 Classic Recipe Mar 01, 2012
By B-Diddy
This is a great tasting paste. You can truly tell the difference between the off-brand pastes and Elmer's. In an economy when manufacturers are making cuts in their products, Elmer's has continued their reputation as a provider of top-quality, great tasting pastes.

 Doesn't glue well Feb 09, 2012
By Noname
I like the Elmer's All Multipurpose White Glue, but the Elmer's Washable No Run School Glue just doesn't do it for me. Sure, it's great that it washes off, but the glue just plain doesn't stick, at least not like the regular stuff. The only time it's good is if it's paper on paper and the project can lay flat to dry. If you need the slightest bit of tack, forget it. Everything will slide right off. That's frustrating for the kids.
Great for large groups of kids, when you can't supervise well and don't want to ruin clothes and carpet. Otherwise, stick with the original.
