Monkey was learning about Cuneiform writing. So we whipped up some salt clay and him and Cat Boy sat down and more some tablets. They had a blast. Cat Boy learned just how hard it was for them to write since if you pushed to hard it made a hole in the bottom, and that if you messed up there was no eraser or backspace button. He used to get SUPER upset when he would mess up, but he took it in stride smoothing it back out and trying again and again. We baked it in the oven to harden it when we were done but I forgot to take a picture of that.
The Boy meanwhile make a clay diorama of his favorite habitat. That was of course the ocean. We went ahead and bought clay for this one so it would be easier to work with and he could re-wet it between sessions. He did an AMAZING job on it. The hardest part was keeping it away from Princess. I also forgot to take a picture of the finished project with this one too. Boo on me.
