Basically, just get a cookie tin or if you want a miniature version of this craft, get an Altoids Mints tin. Trace a blue circle and then glue it to the bottom of the tin's lid. Then cut out a long strip of green grass and green lilly pads as well. Glue these lillp pads to the blue circle that you already glued down. The green grass should be glued to the inside ridge of the tin's lid. This is the pond. Now to make the duck or ducks...roll yellow clay into a ball by rolling the clay in the palm of your hands until a ball forms. Then do the same but with make it smaller for the head. Take orange clay and smoosh a small triangular beak. Attach the head, body, and beak, as pictured in picture #4 above. Next smoosh a little yellow triangle for the back feathers and attach it to the duck. Then take a toothpick and carve small details into the duck's shape. Now turn the duck upside down and push a magnet to the bottom of the duck. Let dry completely. Then you will be able to use the duck on the pond and he won't fall off of the pond.
