into a flat slab with a rolling pin (the bean needed a little help so i made her slab for her.) both girls then used a variety of clay tools we have to make lots of textures into the dough. we keep a box of clay tools ready to go some of them are store bought tools and rollers but the favorites are usually plastic forks, knives and straws.
i then squirted some tempera paint into a tray and the girls rolled the paint onto a foam roller. since we were doing valentines we used pink and red paint. they then rolled the paint directly onto the surface of the play
