Me and my sisters kids always have a great time when we are do polymer clay projects together. We made polymer clay animals with the help of a wonderful book. It turned out to be a chicken, a mouse and a snail. It was very easy to follow the step by step pictures in every project in it. Helping each other out making all the small parts in the animal projects makes it more fun for everybody involved.
But we did more than animals, we made jewelry pendants, refrigerator magnets, and links for bracelets. We are always very careful with polymer clay, and it’s should since it’s not a special kids clay.
It was a great idea to use small cookie cutters for the pendants, made it much easier for everyone to layer polymer clay to make flowers for example. Because of that they didn’t need to struggle to make their edges even, which was very helpful.

Hehe, it’s funny to see that snakes are always so popular when children play with polymer clay and clay in general. I think we made like 10 or 15 snakes all together! Mother snake, baby snakes, yellow snakes…
For this polymer clay project we used Fimo soft, that one makes a bit easier for them to work with it.
I also think they have so many bright color varieties in their color palette. Fimo has several polymer clays with glitter-flakes in them, those are so cute…
For the smallest one we had a kids set with play dough clay instead, and he was happy playing together with us too.
Happy kid for polymer clay projects!
