 You’ll Need:

• Markers, stickers and pompoms

Instructions:

1. Fold the sheet of paper, over and under, like an accordion.

Make Some Clay!

Hey readers,

Owlkids intern Sarah is back at it with a great craft idea. Have fun!

-Melissa

Who loves playing with clay? I know I do! You can make so many different things with clay; like animals, cars, and plants. Try making your own colourful clay with this recipe!

You’ll Need:

• 1 large mixing bowl
• 1 cup of water
• Food colouring (any colour)
• 4 Cups of flour
• 1½ cups of salt
• 4 tbsp of cooking oil

Directions:

Put all of the ingredients in the mixing bowl. With your hands, mix the ingredients together until the mixture is squishy—like clay.

Tip: Add glitter to your clay for some razzle dazzle!

When you’re finished playing, cover your clay and keep it in the fridge to keep it fresh!

See you next time,

Sarah, chickadeeblog@owlkids.com
