I have a fun clay activity for you. Today I’m going to show you how to make Clay Birds…. or really any Clay Animal you would like to make. The only material you will need for this craft is clay…. that’s it. The first sight of clay as it is taken from a crock or plastic bag is enough to get kids interested. Show them to roll, flatten, remove air bubbles, and what to do so the clay will not dry too fast and crack. This first clay project serves to give kids experience with the clay, and incidentally endears it to them. So, grab some clay and let’s get started.
