Clay Modelling Activity


Tooty Frooti Treat !!!!

Our students of primary classes are already familiar with the fruits found in India. To introduce them to the exotic varieties found in other countries of the world, an activity ‘Tooty Fruity Treat’ was planned. Through clay molding  the tiny tots expressed their creativity by playfully rolling, squeezing and giving beautiful form to dough of colorful clay to transform it to a fruit. Through this fun-filled activity a basket full of fruits was prepared which contained Breadfruit from Thailand, Orange, Wine grapes and Blueberry from Italy, Rambutan and Persimmon from Japan, Grape fruit and Avocado from New Zealand and Pomegranate and Dates from Saudi Arabia.
This activity enhanced their knowledge about the variety of fruits found in different parts of the world and at the same time helped them in their cognitive and fine motor skill development.

Very aptly children proved that ‘learning by doing’ is always more effective than any other method.
