AlphabetPhoto: M is for Model Making

On our Summer list is modelling with air drying clay. Dragons and dinosaurs for the garden, to be specific. The children have done a fair amount of clay modelling at school in the last two years. My favourite is still their fruit collection. In the absence of a kiln, we opted for air drying clay.

As I finished the photos, eldest appeared and took over with instructions for smoothing away cracks in the clay.

Mother: “But that one is already dry.”

Eldest: “No problem. The wet paint brush will sort it out.

So there you are. Move over Mother. Your job hereย  is done.ย  (Love moments like this.)

Linking up to the forever inspiring #AlphabetPhoto. It’s “M” today, if you hadn’t guessed. Also celebrating twelve years of surviving being a mother. Happy Birthday, AJ.
