This stuff is awesome and you truly get so much for your money. The amount of clay you get in this bucket is perfect for multiple projects, and it stays fresh and easy to work with as long as it’s sealed back up. I used it to make a fake cookie for a craft project, and I was honestly blown away by how realistic it turned out. The clay is smooth, easy to shape, and works great with traditional sculpting techniques. Once it dried, it held its shape really well and was easy to paint and add details. Cleanup was simple, which I always appreciate, and I love that you can just add a little water if it starts to feel dry. This is a great option for crafters, classrooms, or anyone who enjoys DIY projects. I would absolutely buy this again. ... show more

    • Our favorite sensory-friendly clay for creative and calming play
Number of Items: 1
My neurodivergent kid actually prefers this Crayola air-dry clay over the traditional, well-known modeling clay, and it really comes down to texture and how much she can do with it. She has a lot of sensory sensitivities but this has become one of her favorite ways to regulate while also being creative and working on fine motor skills. She loves making tiny sculptures, and this gives her that “endless possibilities” feeling without the frustration that comes with stickier clays. The texture is similar to regular modeling clay. It is moist but it doesn’t leave that sticky, oily residue on her hands. There is no weird smell or strong fragrance. Cleanup is also much easier in our experience, which matters when you’re doing this at the kitchen table. My daughter also likes that she can add color to it, and if it starts drying while she’s still working, she can moisten it to extend her time and keep shaping her project. For the amount you get, the price is really good, and it’s been a genuinely worthwhile supply in our house. ... show more

    • “Creative, Convenient, and Fun: A Comprehensive Review of Crayola Air Dry Clay”
Number of Items: 1
Crayola Air Dry Clay is a versatile and user-friendly option for crafting enthusiasts of all ages. It’s especially popular for children and beginners because it doesn’t require any special equipment to harden—just leave it out, and it dries naturally within 24-48 hours. This makes it a fantastic choice for those who don’t have access to a kiln or want a low-maintenance alternative to traditional clay. Texture & Workability: The texture of the clay is soft and pliable right out of the package, which makes it easy to mold and shape. It doesn’t stick too much to your hands, which is great for working on detailed projects. It’s an excellent medium for creating sculptures, ornaments, pinch pots, and other crafts. Kids will especially love how easy it is to handle and shape. Drying Process: One of the main advantages is the air-dry feature. There’s no need for baking or firing in a kiln, which eliminates the risks and difficulties associated with traditional clay. However, you do need to give it ample time to fully dry, and thicker projects may take longer. While it dries well, be aware that larger or thicker pieces might develop some minor cracks during the drying process, which can usually be smoothed out or fixed with additional clay. Durability: Once dry, Crayola Air Dry Clay has a solid but somewhat brittle finish. While it holds its shape well, it’s not as durable as kiln-fired clay. If you’re working on projects that need to withstand wear and tear, you might want to reinforce them or handle them with care. That said, it’s still great for lightweight decorative items, school projects, or pieces that will be used indoors. Customization & Painting: One of the best features of this clay is that it can be painted once dry. You can use acrylic paints, watercolors, or even markers to add color and details to your creations. The surface of the dried clay is smooth and easy to decorate, allowing for vibrant, personalized designs. You can also seal your finished pieces with a varnish or sealant to add a protective layer and enhance durability. Clean-Up & Storage: Another major advantage is the ease of clean-up. The clay washes off hands and surfaces with just water, making it ideal for parents or teachers supervising younger kids. Unused clay can be stored in an airtight container to keep it soft and ready for future projects, but be sure to seal it well, as it can dry out if exposed to air. Final Thoughts: Crayola Air Dry Clay is a fantastic product for both novice and experienced crafters. It’s easy to mold, requires no baking, and allows for endless creativity. While it may not be as durable as traditional fired clay, it’s an excellent choice for decorative projects and a fun, mess-free activity for kids. The ability to paint and customize finished pieces makes it even more versatile, offering a full range of creative possibilities! ... show more

Im a beginner at using clay and it did its job very well. The only issues I really had was it would crack but, it was easy to sculpt if you put the right amount of water. If you want to paint and need a shade similar to the clay once dried, I recommend the Apple Barrel’s brand in shade 4571E Beige, slight but not really noticeable shade difference. Overall good product 👍 ... show more

Fantastic kids clay—hours of creative fun for my little ones! This modeling clay set is a hit in our house! Super soft and easy to mold right out of the package, with vibrant colors that don’t fade or mix into mud when they blend (though they do love mixing anyway). It’s non-toxic, non-sticky, and doesn’t dry out quickly even if left open for a bit—perfect for little hands and long play sessions. My kids (ages 4-8) spend ages making animals, monsters, and silly shapes without it crumbling or being too hard. Cleanup is easy too—just wipe surfaces and wash hands. The big assortment of colors keeps things exciting, and it holds details well for their creations. Great value, safe, and sparks so much imagination. We’ve already restocked—highly recommend for rainy days or anytime creativity! ... show more

    • EXCEPTIONAL for Kids/Teens and all ages
Number of Items: 1
If you don't have a kiln and messy clay to make pottery, this is a great backup to no mess/non-stickiness on hands, clothing, fabric and your expensive table and chairs. It peels right off your hands with no residue and my 8 year old daughter just made a small bowl and it dried quickly within a few hours and was easy to sculpt. The texture is again, non-sticky and pliable. You can mold and paint in the same day which is helpful when wanting to complete a project in a few hours for a group or individual. It seems like it will last while given the 5 lbs and so far, if you keep the lid closed, it hasn't dried up. Will buy this again and for gifts! ... show more
