Vegetable Clay Modelling

Hello there...

Yesterday i was going through my blog history and i found that the posts which got maximum views/visits are those related to kids' project. And i thought why not post more relating to that, and i got many of those.

So today i have a post on Clay modelling. The theme is Vegetables. This project was done for my son's school competition. He did a pretty good work and we chose a whole lot of different vegetables for it. Here are the pics..

Clay modelling for kids

As you can see, apart from just making the clay models, we made elaborate arrangements for displaying it. The base is an old recycled tea box. I have divided it with foam board and layered it with corrugated sheet and net.

We made 9 different veggies and they are Peas, Raddish, Carrot, Corn, Chillies (green & red), Brinjal, Pumpkin, Cabbage & Tomatoes. 

The last three vegetbles mentioned are placed in the stand. I found a candle holder ceramic doll to act as the Vegetable vendor.

All vegetables are pretty easy to make. You can zoom in for more details. With more pratice, kids will be able to mould it in the proper shape.

Of all these vegetables, cabbage & corn might be a little tricky for little hands to mould since it needs the leaves to surround the veggie.

Anybody loves it when the final piece looks soo good. And i was completely satisfied with this. And the candle holder added such beauty.

Hope this gives an idea for kids and parents alike who are searching around for ideas for competition. Do comment your views and if you have tried any other vegetable, do mention it.

Thanks for dropping by and showing some love,
