The benefits of modelling
Clay modelling is a fun art activity that everyone can enjoy but, from an educational perspective, it's especially effective in helping children develop their creative faculties and important motor skills such as hand-eye coordination.
Additionally, people of all ages can use modelling or sculpting clay to develop and expand concentration levels, expressing themselves in a constructive and creative way. The therapeutic benefits of modelling may also act as a welcome antidote to the many stresses and anxieties of our fast-paced, modern lives.
Fun sculpting ideas to get you started
From kids through to the professional modeller, there are so many types of modelling clays and pastes available, suitable for both oven-baking and air-drying, as well as liquid clay and paste for papier-mâché. Children of all ages will adore playing with the non-toxic selection of clays on the market that has been purpose-designed for little hands.
Try your skills at some basic sculpting projects like clay votives, clay plant pots and wall pockets for succulents and small indoor plants, bracelets, pendants and necklaces or even as containers for storing stationery, make-up essentials or kitchen utensils.
You can also use sculpting clay for producing items like pinch-pots, clay alphabet magnets, incense holders, drink coasters, candle and tealight holders, coffee mugs and dinner plates in a rainbow of different colours - perfect, personal gift ideas!
