Clay Characters for Kids

Great book! This book is my favorite for learning step by step clay techniques. It gives you great ideas on material to use. Everything starts from a basic shape and this book clearly walks you through each shape and what you can make it into. Some items are a bit detailed and advanced but with the simple directions anything is possible with this book.

I received the book on time... thank you very much.... for some reason or another there was a mistake on the reviews I gave last time.. and im so sorry for that my phone was going crazy on me. I will never give a bad review on something that I got first of all for a good price and good quality.. I'm so sorry for the misunderstanding from my part...

This book is surprisingly easy to follow, and makes really cute looking characters. I thought it would either be too difficult or too imature looking but I was wrong. I bought this for my daughter and I think I will enjoy it as much as she will.

Very cute

The author taught how to form shapes to make animals, fantasy characters, and other charming pieces. She told a story as she taught the making of each piece about a dragon and his scales, and all of his friends trying to find him and help him. Absolutely delightful start and unique way to teach an art lesson.

I bought this for my daughter who loves to work with clay. She loves this book! The pictures are great and the step by step is easy to follow. She uses this all the time for her little clay creations!

Just loved this little book. So easy to follow each step and produce little Characters. I am not a child but a pensioner quite new to clay yet this book helped me make things beyond what I thought I would be able to.

Great resource book for building polymer clay characters. Got this for my 10 year old granddaughter and she got busy with it right away. Arrived as promised and adequately packaged. Worth the money.

This wonderful book shows and explains exactly how to make little people (fairies,elf, goblins,etc) from polymer clay. The step by step instructions are easy to follow. How to roll and construct from balls of clay, the exact thickness of the clay, as well as how to lighten colours. This is a start to finish book for both children and adults. I'm an oldie and I love it . The wife says I'll never be to old to learn (and how right she is) Have fun!!

Libro que puede ser un buen tutorial, con muchas fotos y trabajos sobre todo para los peques. La pena es que viene escrito en inglés.

great book especially when you are trying to get started in clay modelling.

Dieses Büchlein möchte ich hier mal in den höchsten Tönen loben! Wer gerne mit Polymer Clay arbeitet und gerne Figuren formt, der wird von diesem Buch begeistert sein! Und wer dazu auch noch Kinder hat, umso mehr! Die Figürchen die in diesem Buch gezeigt werden sind wirklich alle herzallerliebst! Es gibt für jede eine ganz tolle, bebilderte Schritt-für-Schritt Anleitung, das Gelingen ist einfach garantiert! Und die Bilder sprechen so für sich, ich bin der Meinung das es sich auch jemand kaufen kann, der kein Wort englisch spricht! Die Figuren sind alle recht einfach gehalten - es ist ja auch ein Buch für Kinder. Aber ich finde es ist auch trotzdem toll für erwachsene, die gerne sehr originalgetreue Gesichter und Figuren formen wollen. Kann man sich doch über den einfachen Weg gut an das Gesichterformen herantasten und es perfektionieren. Das Formen der Fantasyfigürchen macht riesen Spass und Ihre Kinder werden Sie für die süssen Gnome, Elfen, Drachen und Tierchen lieben!

Pour enfants, pas seulement car le modelage demande quand même certaines notions. Mais avec un adulte c'est un apprentissage réussi. Les petites mains se mêlent et s'entremêlent pour au final carresser un petit animal... Plaisir partagé et réussite pour tous. Voilà une bonne et belle activité à renouveler. Un fond de musique en plus et l'imagination se développe pour un moment de sérénité....
