We took the clay outside and my son spent a solid hour pressing leaves and little stones into his creatures before painting them. The molds that come in the box are simple enough that my 6-year-old could work them on his own. Cleanup was easier than I feared too.

My daughter dragged this kit into the backyard and spent an entire afternoon shaping little critters with leaves and twigs pressed into the clay. The way it encourages outdoor play while keeping her hands busy is exactly what I hoped for. Watching her proudly line up her creatures on the porch made

The clay is soft enough for small hands to shape but holds its form once they’re done, which makes the whole outdoor play-to-decorate cycle actually work. My son spent a whole afternoon crafting little creatures and then proudly lined them up on the windowsill to dry.
