A scoop of imagination with a sprinkle of silliness! Hey Clay – Nice Ice Cream invites children to turn soft, colourful clay into six quirky frozen-treat characters. From smiley scoops to a cheeky ice lolly, this is an ice cream collection made for creating, not eating!
Step-by-step video guides in the Hey Clay app help young makers build each character from simple shapes. Rolling a scoop, shaping a cone and adding tiny eyes or colourful sprinkles turns the process into a satisfying series of little discoveries. Children can follow along at their own pace, then experiment with colour combinations and details of their own.
There’s meaningful skill-building behind every squish. Pinching, rolling and joining the clay encourage finger strength, fine motor control and hand–eye coordination. Positioning small features offers practice in careful observation, while following the sculpting sequence encourages planning, concentration and problem-solving.
Once the characters are finished, leave them to air-dry and harden, ready to display or inspire an imaginary ice cream shop. Children can dream up funny flavour names, invent personalities for their creations and take turns telling stories about their colourful customers.
A cheerful project for family craft time or creative classroom sessions, this set brings app-guided inspiration into children’s hands, with plenty of room for their own ideas.
Includes: 15 cans of air-dry modelling clay to make six characters, two sculpting tools and a QR code to unlock the interactive instructions in the Hey Clay app. The app is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
