Instructions: Start out by preparing the clay as explained on the recipe page. Make 4 nature shapes out of the clay (specifc animals, insects, trees, flowers, etc.). Poke a hole in the top of each shape before you put it in the oven. Next, cut the paper plate in half and then punch 4 holes, evenly spaced, along the straight edge. Print out or write the child's name on paper, cut it out, and glue it to the paper plate. Now, write a "God made..." statement for each shape you made; for example "God made the birds, "God made the butterflies", etc. Cut them out and glue them to the paper plate. Paint your clay shapes. Once the paint is dry, string the end of a piece of fishing line (about 12 inches long) through the hole in the top of the shape and tie. Thread the other end of the fishing line through one of the holes you punched in the plate and tie. Attach all the shapes onto the paper plate. Punch a hole in the top edge of the plate and add a piece of fishing line so you can hang up your mobile. - See a larger photo of this craft completed by Helen Mataki.
