Give a kid some clay and some paint and this is what you get.

What I love about projects like these is that they encourage patience. It is not the kind of thing that you can sit down to and finish in an hour, not even in a day. He started the process last week using what he'd read was an ancient Greek method for making clay pots. Then it took several days to dry, then a few more days before we could find the time for painting. I suggested that he give it a Modge Podge finish, later that afternoon.
