To say that kids love clay will be an under-statement. If I want Achi to not bug me a lot during the day so that i could post in my blog, all I have to do is to give her her clay box and she will while away her time.
The good thing here is that we do not have to buy clay for the kids all the time. We can actually make one with them, and let them play with it. So basically it is like shooting two birds with one stone!
