Ceramics
Within the artistic-plastic activities, modelling is presented as an activity through which the participant perceives and transforms reality in a three-dimensional way (sensing volume, proportions, etc.), making different creations through his/her own effort.
CERAMICS
Children have a natural inclination towards sand and water as the most natural play materials available. Water and earth, as fundamental elements of our existence, provide us with food, energy, strength, but also relaxation and joy. Easy to handle, simple and with sensory benefits, these two materials fascinate both children and adults. From water and earth it is only a step to clay, modelling clay and other materials.
