Creativity Fails
My children love to create objects: with paint, pencils, clay, play dough. You name it, they will use it.
Yesterday morning, Aaron and Melina decided to manipulate some clay into a few objects they wanted to play with.
"And now, can we bake them?" Aaron asked.
"I don't think this is oven-bake clay," I replied.
"It is," he assured me.
"Really?" I had my doubts.
But I went ahead and placed these two creatures, along with a bowl that Talia had made for Melina, into the oven.
As I suspected. The clay was NOT safe for the oven. Only the white hardened in the heat.
Another good lesson learned here: always listen to your mother--she's probably right.
