Shape
body
You can make any animal you like, of course, but let’s start with a dog. Take a handful of clay and shape it into a ball for the dog’s body.
Make
spots
Use a different-colored clay to make spots for the dog’s body.
Draw
features
On the poster board, draw and color the dog’s features.
Cut
out body parts
Cut out the cardboard body parts.
If you make body parts for several different
animals, you can mix and match them to create a brand new species!
Stick
pieces into clay
Stick the cardboard pieces into the clay and bark “hello” to your new friend. Ruff, ruff!
