Hooray for Clay!
Clay comes directly from the earth and is made up of many small particles of rock. Water surrounds each particle and forms a moldable material that can be formed into shapes for different uses. When the clay dries, the water evaporates and the clay hardens. Not long ago, people had to make their own dishes and tools from clay. Today many people still enjoy creating their own clay kitchenware and ornaments. In addition, artists often use clay for sculpting and in paint-making.
