Élan the dragon likes to help pottery dry by heating it with his flames. But here’s a recipe for clay you can use that doesn’t need a dragon’s fire to dry. Be sure to get an adult’s permission before you start.
You will need:
2 1/2 cups flour
1 cup water
1 cup salt
Food coloring (optional)
Mix all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Add a drop or two of food coloring if you’d like. Once the dough is well combined, shape it into whatever you would like. Try making a vase, or roll it out flat and cut out a shape with a cookie cutter. When you have a shape that you like, place it on a piece of waxed paper and let dry for 48 hours. Once the shape is completely dried, you can paint it or leave it its natural color.
