What you need

Clay in these colours

  • Black
  • White
  • Orange

  • Sculpting tools from the kit
  • An electric oven and baking paper. An adult does the baking.

Step by step

  1. Roll a black egg shape for the body.

  2. Roll a white ball and press it flat into an oval.

  3. Press the white oval onto the front as the belly.

  4. Press two flat black teardrops onto the sides as flippers.

  5. Make two orange feet with three toes and press them in place underneath.

  6. Press two white circles, each with a black dot, in place as eyes.

  7. Press a small orange beak between the eyes and scratch a small line into it.

  8. Press two pink cheeks in place. Done!

Tip

Black clay rubs off easily: wash your hands before you make the white belly.
