Title: Easily workable
Review: I purchased this to make crafts with the grandchildren. The first order arrived with the tub cracked, but was quickly replaced. We first made ghosts for Halloween and it was easy to roll (even for the 3yo with a little help).

Title: Drys pretty quick
Review: Bought it for my son’s school project. It molds well and dried hard in about 2 days. Only complaint is that i noticed 1 crack on the little Indian hut he made as it dried but that’s probably to be expected.

Title: Great fun craft clay
Review: This is a little tackier than regular clay so you will need to adjust a little if you are used to the type of clay you place in a kiln. But it is fun to work with and is pretty sturdy once it dries. It cannot be used for any thing you would eat or drink from, but for little sculptures, vessels, Christmas ornament, etc. it is great. I bring it out for the grandkids aged 4-16 and they all have a great time with it. Once it’s dry you can paint it with acrylics or craft paint. I like the lidded plastic container which is easy to store and keeps the clay moist and workable. And the Crayola brand is more affordable than the other air-dry clays I looked at, so bonus!

Title: Good but heavy.
Review: I used this to sculpt a Dino mask and when it dries it gets very heavy but works great. It cracks when it dries and you have to re mold about 4 times until it wont crack but it was very easy to mold and tear apart. Good for little crafts but not good for large items overall. Not for beginners.

Title: Fun for kids crafts, but isn’t long lasting
Review: It’s very fun for crafts and for just playing with if you’re a fidgeter, and you get a lot in a tub. However, don’t use it for keepsakes! It will likely crumble due to the elements. Crayola doesn’t advertise this clay as long lasting, so I won’t remove stars from the review for that, but keep that in mind if you’re wanting something to make something you keep for a long time.

Title: Very useful
Review: If your thinking of buying this and you’ll actually have the time to do it, but it! My sister has made countless things with it and it’s been like 4 months and she still has a ton of it left, definitely a side hobby super fun and worth the money for sure

Title: Good for beginniners, terrible for smooth detail. CRACKING!!
Review: This was, quite frankly, NOT a good time. I used this clay a lot when I was little, and never managed to finish my container of it. It was SO much fun, using it—I have vivid memories of it from YEARS ago, and I still have the various objects and figures that I’d made with it—very few of which are cracked. In fact, the only ones that cracked were ones that were WAYYY too fragile, in the first place—and which broke due to my own mishandling.I would absolutely recommend this clay for younger sculptors, or those who aren’t really picky about detail or smoothness. It’s very soft, and easy to mould—but it gets INCREDIBLY sticky if you use too much water, or if you’re just handling it too much. If you’re trying to create miniature objects, let me warn you in advance—if the blob of clay that you are using is too small, it will start to CRUMBLE.I was super excited to use this clay, and finish up a project I’d been working on all week. I’m an adult doll collector + customizer, and I’ve been using clay to sculpt new facial features and body types for my dolls. Thankfully, I didn’t use any of this for my dolls—as I now realize that it would have ended in disaster—but I used quite a bit of it to try to finish up a miniature daybed (roughly 12 inches long and eight inches wide) that I’ve been working on. I was using a bunch of tiny blobs of clay to add an artsy, wobbly edge to the wood + cardboard + hot glue frame, and smoothing the blobs out with water.I’d read that this clay will crack if you use too much water—and so I used it incredibly sparingly. I dabbed my fingers in a mug of water, and then smoothed the clay out; I used virtually no water with the clay. There was one spot where there was a crack in my wooden frame, and so I had to use a little extra water—and I anticipated that spot to crack due to structural reasons alone.I left my clay to dry for nearly twenty-four hours, and, when I returned, everything had cracked. The border around the edges of the bed had numerous deep cracks running through the length of what I’d sculpted. A few part of the border broke off entirely. Where I’d noted the aforementioned structural crack, and where I’d patched it with clay, the entire thing was RUINED, spider-webbed with cracks. In other structurally important areas (inner corners and around the base of the wooden posts at each corner), there were cracks along the seams.I wondered if I’d used too much water, shrugged it off, and patched the cracked areas with extra clay. I tried not to use water, but, for the aesthetics of my build (and for the ease of painting), I dabbed a my fingers into my mug a few times here and there. Again—I used DROPLETS of water, at most. I left it alone for a few hours—and, when I checked in on it again, it had already begun to crack again.This clay is incredibly unforgivable. It gets sticky easily, and it cracks at a whim. It doesn’t smooth out well for detail work, and it refuses to work with water—which, I’d argue, is a sculptor’s #1 basic tool. It’s cheap, and it works well for kids—but for the basic sculpting needs that I have, it doesn’t work at all. I will be returning it.

Review: Wow this works like real pottery with half the time and no spinning wheel! I bought this for my students and we made beautiful art for Mother’s Day. No residue left on hands, easy play dough texture to work with and drys within a couple days to paint and decorate. Easy and quick fun activity.
