Air dry is easy to shape and create with your hands, just like using play dough!

  3. Once clay drys you can paint!
  4. Instruct students to paint candy cane! If you would like it to look like a traditional candy cane instruct the students to paint candy cane white. Once it dries paint red or green stripes on candy cane!
