Does your child love to play with clay? Do they also enjoy playing pretend? My children love making things out of clay and they love to engage in imaginative play too.
Today, I have granted their request to let them play with clay. We have bought a guidebook teaching how to make figures out of clay, and they are excited to try it.
My kids' crafting skills are still limited, so they often ask me to make something for them. But you know I love doing these things, and I enjoyed creating this activity as well. Below are the things my children and I accomplished together.
After their creations, they started to play pretend. They usually set up a restaurant; one acts as the customer while the other is the store owner. Their imaginations lead them to create stories while they play.
As they play, I enjoyed creating an underwater scene. See the photo below.
I also thought that this could be a great theme for a cake! If someone asked me to make one, at least I now know how to create these creatures!
Making your own clay is cheap. Click the link to see my home-made clay recipe: salt clay recipe. No-cook clay recipe: turns hard when air dried.
