ESSENSON Air Dry Clay 42 Colors, Modeling Clay for Kids, DIY Molding Magic Clay for with Tools, Toys Gifts for Age 3 4 5 6 7 8+ Years Old Boys Girls Kids

I bought this for my grandkids who are homeschooled. Any independent art activities are greatly appreciated by my daughter who is an amazing mom and educator. While herding all 4 kids through her planned curriculum, it’s nice to have the kids relax and enjoy themselves in creative projects working independently and self motivated. They love this Clay! A vast array of brilliant colors, a texture that is soft and has a satisfying tactile quality. The clay air dries and the colors stay true and the surface appearance remains unchanged. This stuff is comparable to “Hey Clay” but is more budget friendly. Don’t tell anyone but the kids use the Hey Clay phone app with this clay, to create animals, monsters, etc. They will spend hours at a time working with this stuff! BTW….Someone dropped several pieces of aquamarine blue clay on my daughters living room carpet and after it dried it was easily scraped off and vacuumed up without a trace.

These little containers are a step above the other air mold sets because they allow for easy storage! However, We used this set to entertain 10 kids and there was nothing left over to store. So for a party- wouldn't need to use these! I'd go with a cheaper set if we weren't using to store. But it's all Very fun- but these are small containers. Probably stick with playdough for 5 year olds- but this set is excellent for kids 6+ who would be more detailed. The texture is great- out of the container you just have to play with the clay to get it the right consistency. Great set and fun colors.

I love this air dry clay. They come individually inside sealed containers which is what sold me. There’s a great variety of colors. The clay is not sticky/wet nor dried out like other brands I have tried previously. Good value for the money.

Great for students in class. Love the colors! Once opened you have to use it within the few hours or it’s difficult to build with.

We started with a more expensive air clay that came with how-to videos, and when we ran out of clay I substituted this. It works well with the only difference being that if it gets too warm on the kids hands it seems to melt a little and become over-sticky. Just stop handling it and it returns to a useable substance. Dries a little softer (more mailable) than the other brand I used but still perfect for making whatever creations you want. Colors do not seem to stain anything.

42 is my fav number so this option was an easy one. The product works as described or better. Tastes lousy, but I don't think you're supposed to taste it anyway. Just know that if you do, don't.

Package box for product very flimsy. Had one prior that was very stable.

Some of the best clay and lightweight
