Learning benefits
- 💡 Children will enhance their dexterity and hand-eye coordination while manipulating clay. They will also practice spatial reasoning and creative problem-solving by designing and building their unique coral structures and arranging their treasures.
Safety notes
- ⚠️ Adult supervision is required, especially when small beads and glitter are in use due to choking hazards. Ensure children understand not to ingest any materials. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after the activity, particularly after handling clay and glitter, to prevent accidental ingestion or eye irritation.
Cleanup
- 🧹 Gather all unused clay and seal it tightly in its original packaging for future use. Wipe down the plastic tablecloth with a damp cloth, then dispose of any parchment paper and small debris. Wash all crafting tools, such as the plastic knife and rolling pin, thoroughly with warm soapy water.
