Sculptorades:

(do not worry about your scupting skills, this is like pictionnary in clay.)

Get your teammates to guess what’s on the card by sculpting in clay with no talking or gestures.

If your team does not successfully complete

the activity, you earn no points. It is now the other team’s turn, and your team sets up the challenge.

Once you have played 2-3 cards we will switch partners and then tables

The joy of art-making

            

1. Do you remember the first time you made a clay/play dough project?
2. What was it?
3. Do you still have it?

What has four doors, weighs 1.5 tons and isn't going anywhere fast? A Chevrolet Orlando made out of 10,000 pots of Play-Doh! To unveil the UK launch of their new family sedan, Chevy commissioned a life-sized replica of the car and parked it on London's streets.

Eight model makers took two weeks to construct the aquamarine auto, according to the Daily Mail. The project cost nearly $10,000.
