Arlene’s Tacky Glue. You can find it anywhere (in a brownish colored bottle)
You might try “Gorilla Glue”. Use it personally before giving it to children though. I bought it at Home Depot. Fantastic on wood, and metal. Not sure about paper though.
Aleene’s Tacky Glue works great and cleans up well. It’s good for that age group because it is craft and kid friendly.
Gorrilla Glue sets well, but takes a while to dry and is difficult to get off of hands and other surfaces that you didn’t want to glue.
Tacky or Gorilla glue I guess…..or epoxy? I don’t know!?!
Yes

Aleene’s Designer Tacky glue bonds even faster than her regular Tacky glue and works on most of the mediums you have mentioned but if you are going to use lots of fabrics, Fabri-tac makes the bond more flexible and permanent. For everything else the Designer Tacky should be enough.
I understand you being hesitant to use a glue gun, but have you tried the low heat ones? I have been using them since my girls were Brownies, and I have never had an accident of burning. There is nothing that bonds quicker and stronger, in my opinion, than using the glue gun. If I cannot use a glue gun, I choose rubber cement.
