Kids begin to engage in applied art from early childhood. The very first acquaintance with him occurs in the sandbox, when the child experiments, creating various figures with the help of molds. Older children use plasticine, turning an ordinary block into a hedgehog, kitten or bun. Clay is also actively used. Modeling develops imagination, memory, intellectual abilities. It helps to develop perseverance, gain many skills and use them in the future.

Manipulations with soft material improve fine motor skills and prepare the hand for writing. They help develop sensory sensitivity, as a result of which the child receives the first knowledge in the field of geometry. He learns to distinguish not only the shapes of objects, but also to determine their texture and color.

For some, sculpting is a thing of the past as a fun child's activity. But many, both in adolescence and at an older age, enjoy spending their free time, creating with their own hands complex paintings and volumetric figures from plasticine or clay. The experts of our magazine chose 10 sculpting kits, which received many positive reviews and high ratings from customers.
