Toys made of polymer clay

Molding helps the child improve finger dexterity and develop coordination of movements, which in turn positively affects logical thinking and speech. But if the kid is bored with classes with plasticine, find out how to make toys from polymer clay, the advantage of which is that they can also be played after baking (drying) in the oven.

Such crafts, like toys made of polymer clay or plastics made by themselves, are completely harmless if you comply with safety techniques. They consist of dyes, plasticizer and PVC, and are recommended for use by children from the age of three. Of these, you can create Christmas decorations, products in a doll house, souvenirs and even costume jewelry for small women of fashion.

Children's toys from polymer clay: master class

You have to start sculpting from plastic with the simplest figures. Let's try to make little funny turtles. This requires three colors - blue, green and pink. Still need any stick, for example, a brush for paints, and a little water for wetting your fingers.

1. First, from the blue mass, roll the ordinary ball, and then turn it into a kind of drop.
2. Such drops we should get four pieces - it will be the legs of a turtle.
3. Then from a slice of green plastic we make a bigger ball, and we give it a dome shape with a notch - the shell is ready.
4. Five details for the trunk came out.
5. We put the legs close and cover them with a shell, lightly pressing on it.
6. It was my turn to make a head - for this we roll a ball and a cylinder, and, connecting them together, we get the head and neck of a turtle.
7. Prepare a place for fixing the neck - gently squeeze the vertical groove-groove with a brush.
8. We position our head in the right place and temporarily fix it with the help of improvised means.
9. It remains to decorate the turtle with pink specks.
10. Do not forget to map eyes with gouache or beads and our turtles are ready for baking.

The molding of toys made of polymer clay will bring joy to both children and adults.
