Salt Dough

For our final in class project we did salt dough, and Mike and I chose to make ours after the Coloseum. In our picture you can see a yellow lion viciously killing a gladiator (depicted by the macaroni noodles). There is a chariot and horse riding around the arena taking part in the bloodsport that was the Coloseum. Although our picture depicts the brutal reality of European history, the salt dough was fun and easy to make. The ingredients are here!

The salt dough is a great alternative to the expensive classroom use of clay. It can be made relatively quickly and is non-toxic. It can be painted as well.
