Being an art teacher, I always look for unique and fun ways to engage the children during the holidays, and this Dusheera we are bringing something special: a Clay Ceramic Art Mug Workshop! This workshop has been designed in a way to enable children to experiment in the magic world of ceramic art by putting their imagination on paper with clay in a fun and hands-on environment.
Here’s what makes this workshop special:
- Introduction to Ceramic Art: We’ll start by teaching kids what really is the general concept of working with clay-from understanding various types of clay to the tools used for ceramic art. So it becomes comfortable for even first-timers to the workshops, so they feel more confident in exploring this medium.2
- Sculpt Your Own Mug: How much fun can a child have in making their own personalised mug? Give it a try and every child will have the chance to sculpt their mug from the ground up and try out different shapes and designs in a learning experience about clay sculpting techniques.
- Techniques of Decorative: Once the mug takes shape, we will run them through techniques that can give unique textures and patterns and even add handles to their masterpieces. The kids are encouraged to just let their imagination go wild with quirky or elegant mugs.
- Learning Through Play: A concrete-based product is what this workshop teaches children how to create, but it also helps develop fine motor skills and patience and encourages creative thinking. This process of working with clay is very soothing to young learners yet empowering at the same time.
- A creative activity on Dusheera: Dusheera can be a great time to involve oneself in creative activities and what better way than making something meaningful? The kids leave with their customized mugs and learn more about art and craft.
