One of the Ganon children's favorite art mediums is clay. Clay helps children to understand the three dimensional aspect of the world. Working with clay also helps children develop an ability to adapt to changes, as they have to work around limitations of clay, as a medium, in art. There are many benefits of working with clay, including sensory development, motor skills, self esteem, problem solving and self expression. Today, the children chose to create monsters, dolls, babies, robots, and castles using the clay during their free play time.
