Let’s Talk About Art: Creative Convo Prompts
The wall hanging activity is the most structured activity in the kits. It has been designed to produce a really impressive outcome by only following a few steps. We know some children may not enjoy the challenge of a fresh lump of clay.
Sometimes not being able to achieve the outcome they hoped for can be upsetting so we wanted to find a way to make pottery as stress free as possible. Not only does this activity provide step-by-step instructions and tutorial videos, they also have the assistance of clay cutters to avoid any unwanted mistakes made by the pressure of carving an object freehand.
