shapes on for a collar. In the center, place a small, flattened oval shape for the leprechaun’s shirt. Roll out tiny balls for buttons. Roll out two small balls for hands. Flatten them slightly. Use a clay tool or plastic knife to create a thumb. Add to the ends of the arms. 4. Roll out a small ball of Model Magic for the leprechaun’s head. Use a small ball for his nose and 2 small, flattened balls of white for the eyes. Add black dots for pupils. Give your leprechaun some hair! Pick a color and drape a piece under his nose for a beard, on top of his eyes for brows, and around his head for hair. Use a clay tool or plastic knife to etch in texture for the hair. For ears, roll out 2 small hot dog shapes and curl each one into itself so the ends touch. Place on either side of the head. 5. Give your leprechaun a large goofy hat! For the brim, flatten a medium sized ball and place it on his head. For the top part, make a thick cylinder shape and pinch the top outward and the bottom inward a little. Place it on top of the brim. Roll out a long, flat skinny piece to wrap around the base of the hat. Make 4 tiny pieces to shape into a square for the buckle. 6. Fill the pot with gold and add embellishments. Now that your leprechaun is finished, you can roll out many tiny balls of yellow, flatten them and fill the pot. Decorate your pot with a little clover. 7. Now build your rainbow! Make 2 large balls of white Model Magic and use your finger or the end of a rounded tool and press it all over to make clouds. Next, roll out your colors for your rainbow into long spaghetti shapes. Form the outmost color into an upside down "U" shape. 8. Put the rest of the colors underneath, one by one. Model Magic that is fresh from the pack will stick to itself. Dried pieces can be glued together. You can trim the ends with a plastic knife when you’re all finished to even them out. Then place your rainbow on top of your clouds. If you have trouble keeping it straight, place several wooden toothpicks into the clouds behind the rainbow for support. You can remove them once your rainbow dries completely. Once dry, your artwork will be ready to display!
When & Where "We have an Irish background, so this was the perfect craft for our kids to work on when it was too cold and wet to go outside and play. " - Francis P., parent, children ages 10 "After we moved, a lot of our holiday decorations got misplaced or ruined. This was a great way for my son to get into the holiday spirit and make some new decorations for our home." - Bruce W., father, child age 8 Interesting Info A rainbow is an arc of light separated into bands of color (parallel stripes) that appear when the Sun's rays are refracted and reflected by drops of mist or rain. The colors of the rainbow are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. These are the full spectrum of colors that make up the sun's white light. Thus, rainbow is a multicolored arc of light in sky.
Safety Guidelines Crayola Modeling Materials including Crayola Model Magic®, and Model Magic Fusion™, Crayola Air-Dry Clay, and Crayola Dough— Keep away from open flames. Do not use to make candleholders, hot plates, trivets, or other similar objects that will be used or placed near fire and other heat sources. Do not put in an oven, microwave, or kiln. Do not make into vessels/containers that will hold unpackaged food. The use of modeling material to make items that look like food is discouraged for children younger than age 5 to avoid their confusion with real food. Unless sealed with a water-resistant glaze, do not make projects exposed to or immersed in water, such as boats or outdoor bird feeders. They would disintegrate when exposed to moisture. Crayola Dough—contains gluten (wheat flour) as an ingredient. Crayola Air-Dry Clay, Crayola Model Magic and Model Magic Fusion are gluten-free. However, they are produced on the same machinery as Crayola Dough which does contain gluten. Although the machines are cleaned prior to the start of each production run, there is a slight possibility that trace amounts of gluten from Crayola Dough may be present in the other modeling compound products. For information regarding specific ingredients or allergic concerns, please call our Consumer Affairs department at 1-800272-9652 weekdays between 9 AM and 4 PM Eastern Standard Time. Modeling Tools—Use the least dangerous point or edge sufficient to do the job. For example, craft sticks, plastic knives and forks, and cookie cutters can cut or carve modeling materials.
