We have been having a lot of fun creating mini clay pots.

Here are some instructions on how to make them. We hope that you get a chance to make your own. It’s a lot of fun!

First you get some clay and roll it into a ball.

Next you place your thumb in the centre of it and push a hole gently into the centre of it.

Then work your way around the pot pinching the clay as you go to create a vase shape.

Write your initials on the bottom of your mini clay pot to make sure you know which one is yours later.

Wait for a few hours, up to a day, for it to dry really well.

Paint it in the design and colours of your choice.

Well done! You have created your own mini clay pot. Now you can decide what to keep in your pot.

Here is a photo of Room 1’s mini clay pots!
