Modelling Clay Monster
Jack's modelling clay monster has lots of eyes!
This modelling clay monster craft is a great craft idea for little ones,
because anything goes!
You will need:
Self-hardening or other modelling clay in different colours
Crafty bits and pieces such as googly eyes to decorate
Instructions follow...
Instructions:
We can't really provide instructions for this monster craft - because your
monster can be whatever you can imagine! Your child might want a bit of guidance
("What colour is your monster's head?" "How many arms is he going to have?") or
they might have a very clear idea of what they are going to create.
If you use the right sort of clay, the hardened monster can make a really fun
fridge magnet or brooch/pin. Just glue the appropriate fixing to the back when
it is completely hardened. Otherwise, just put your monster on display!
Ideas:
- You could ask your child to make the monster a particular colour or
shape.
- Write down directions for your child to follow when making the monster.
- Copy your favourite monster from a book or film.
- Older kids could try designing and drawing their monster before making
him. How accurate was the planning process?
- Write a story about the finished monster.
- Turn your monster into a keyring (if you think he is stuck together
well enough!)
