Kids' Clay Class - Slideshow

This slideshow gives you a short overview of this great new class.
 Our young artists are learning how to work with wet clay, and will enjoy their final work after baking in a real pottery kiln.
Kids are creating real ceramic objects to be taken home,
which make them so happy and proud!
Yesterday class work was a Name Board.
Children could choose between 2 suggested shapes for their board (fish or leaf) and could write their names, by forming capital letters in clay. They also enjoyed "painting" their work, with a special mix of glaze and wet clay, and the final result will be brought back in 2 weeks,
after baking in proper ceramic kiln at the Pottery studio in town.
Don't forget the next class in 2 weeks, on Oct. 11th !
5 spaces are still left for this Kids' Clay Class for 2 classes only (Oct. 11th and 25th)

fine motor skills (all are essential for writing later on).
