I wouldn't use Elmer's glue,as it does have synthetic petroleum(not worth the risk).Just make a very simple flour glue,for example a brown rice based glue with water,rather than risking Elmer's glue.

I'd also avoid Chinese parts and products(can contain toxins as regulations aren't too good)which would mean avoiding craft store popsicle sticks among many other things.

The main idea is keeping things natural(if dyeing anything use a natural and 100 percent safe option such as fruit or vegetable based homemade dye,nothing that contains artificial dyes,alcohol,harmful preservatives such as BHA/BHT/ethoxyquin,etc)and as safe as possible.
