Kids can create their own unique sculptures, figurines, and other imaginative creations. The clay is soft and pliable, making it easy for little hands to shape and mold. It is also non-toxic, making it safe for children to use.
The 5lb bucket of Crayola Air Dry Clay is perfect for group activities or for kids who just can't get enough of creating with clay. The bucket also makes it easy to store and keep the clay fresh for future use. Overall, this product is a great way to encourage creativity and imagination in children. It’s a must-have for parents and teachers who want to provide kids with a fun and engaging activity that also helps develop their fine motor skills.
I would absolutely recommend this clay for younger sculptors, or those who aren't really picky about detail or smoothness. It's very soft, and easy to mould—but it gets INCREDIBLY sticky if you use too much water, or if you're just handling it too much. If you're trying to create miniature objects, let me warn you in advance—if the blob of clay that you are using is too small, it will start to CRUMBLE.
I was super excited to use this clay, and finish up a project I'd been working on all week. I'm an adult doll collector + customizer, and I've been using clay to sculpt new facial features and body types for my dolls. Thankfully, I didn't use any of this for my dolls—as I now realize that it would have ended in disaster—but I used quite a bit of it to try to finish up a miniature daybed (roughly 12 inches long and eight inches wide) that I've been working on. I was using a bunch of tiny blobs of clay to add an artsy, wobbly edge to the wood + cardboard + hot glue frame, and smoothing the blobs out with water.
I'd read that this clay will crack if you use too much water—and so I used it incredibly sparingly. I dabbed my fingers in a mug of water, and then smoothed the clay out; I used virtually no water with the clay. There was one spot where there was a crack in my wooden frame, and so I had to use a little extra water—and I anticipated that spot to crack due to structural reasons alone.
I left my clay to dry for nearly twenty-four hours, and, when I returned, everything had cracked. The border around the edges of the bed had numerous deep cracks running through the length of what I'd sculpted. A few part of the border broke off entirely. Where I'd noted the aforementioned structural crack, and where I'd patched it with clay, the entire thing was RUINED, spider-webbed with cracks. In other structurally important areas (inner corners and around the base of the wooden posts at each corner), there were cracks along the seams.
I wondered if I'd used too much water, shrugged it off, and patched the cracked areas with extra clay. I tried not to use water, but, for the aesthetics of my build (and for the ease of painting), I dabbed a my fingers into my mug a few times here and there. Again—I used DROPLETS of water, at most. I left it alone for a few hours—and, when I checked in on it again, it had already begun to crack again.
This clay is incredibly unforgivable. It gets sticky easily, and it cracks at a whim. It doesn't smooth out well for detail work, and it refuses to work with water—which, I'd argue, is a sculptor's #1 basic tool. It's cheap, and it works well for kids—but for the basic sculpting needs that I have, it doesn't work at all. I will be returning it.
