  • “Creative, Convenient, and Fun: A Comprehensive Review of Crayola Air Dry Clay”
Color: White Size: 5lb
Crayola Air Dry Clay is a versatile and user-friendly option for crafting enthusiasts of all ages. It’s especially popular for children and beginners because it doesn’t require any special equipment to harden—just leave it out, and it dries naturally within 24-48 hours. This makes it a fantastic choice for those who don’t have access to a kiln or want a low-maintenance alternative to traditional clay. Texture & Workability: The texture of the clay is soft and pliable right out of the package, which makes it easy to mold and shape. It doesn’t stick too much to your hands, which is great for working on detailed projects. It’s an excellent medium for creating sculptures, ornaments, pinch pots, and other crafts. Kids will especially love how easy it is to handle and shape. Drying Process: One of the main advantages is the air-dry feature. There’s no need for baking or firing in a kiln, which eliminates the risks and difficulties associated with traditional clay. However, you do need to give it ample time to fully dry, and thicker projects may take longer. While it dries well, be aware that larger or thicker pieces might develop some minor cracks during the drying process, which can usually be smoothed out or fixed with additional clay. Durability: Once dry, Crayola Air Dry Clay has a solid but somewhat brittle finish. While it holds its shape well, it’s not as durable as kiln-fired clay. If you’re working on projects that need to withstand wear and tear, you might want to reinforce them or handle them with care. That said, it’s still great for lightweight decorative items, school projects, or pieces that will be used indoors. Customization & Painting: One of the best features of this clay is that it can be painted once dry. You can use acrylic paints, watercolors, or even markers to add color and details to your creations. The surface of the dried clay is smooth and easy to decorate, allowing for vibrant, personalized designs. You can also seal your finished pieces with a varnish or sealant to add a protective layer and enhance durability. Clean-Up & Storage: Another major advantage is the ease of clean-up. The clay washes off hands and surfaces with just water, making it ideal for parents or teachers supervising younger kids. Unused clay can be stored in an airtight container to keep it soft and ready for future projects, but be sure to seal it well, as it can dry out if exposed to air. Final Thoughts: Crayola Air Dry Clay is a fantastic product for both novice and experienced crafters. It’s easy to mold, requires no baking, and allows for endless creativity. While it may not be as durable as traditional fired clay, it’s an excellent choice for decorative projects and a fun, mess-free activity for kids. The ability to paint and customize finished pieces makes it even more versatile, offering a full range of creative possibilities! ... show more

  • Fun!
Color: White Size: 5lb
I bought this to make my own vases and magnets. For a beginner, this is great! I like that you can paint over it once it dries, so you can make your art any color! The quality is good, it is easy to use and maintain. It does crack a little on some projects, but it depends. It gets super sticky when you wet it, and can be pretty messy. It is a soft texture though, it is fun to use! ... show more

  • Easily workable

I purchased this to make crafts with the grandchildren. The first order arrived with the tub cracked, but was quickly replaced. We first made ghosts for Halloween and it was easy to roll (even for the 3yo with a little help).

  • Drys pretty quick
Color: White Size: 5lb
Bought it for my son’s school project. It molds well and dried hard in about 2 days. Only complaint is that i noticed 1 crack on the little Indian hut he made as it dried but that’s probably to be expected.

Got 2 packs for my daughter who is in her clay making stage right now. It air dries which is great, bc there is no need to kiln . When dry, it becomes pretty hard and the texture is smooth. Easy to sculpt and does the job for daughter.

  • Good for beginniners, terrible for smooth detail. CRACKING!!
Color: White Size: 5lb
This was, quite frankly, NOT a good time. I used this clay a lot when I was little, and never managed to finish my container of it. It was SO much fun, using it—I have vivid memories of it from YEARS ago, and I still have the various objects and figures that I'd made with it—very few of which are cracked. In fact, the only ones that cracked were ones that were WAYYY too fragile, in the first place—and which broke due to my own mishandling. I would absolutely recommend this clay for younger sculptors, or those who aren't really picky about detail or smoothness. It's very soft, and easy to mould—but it gets INCREDIBLY sticky if you use too much water, or if you're just handling it too much. If you're trying to create miniature objects, let me warn you in advance—if the blob of clay that you are using is too small, it will start to CRUMBLE. I was super excited to use this clay, and finish up a project I'd been working on all week. I'm an adult doll collector + customizer, and I've been using clay to sculpt new facial features and body types for my dolls. Thankfully, I didn't use any of this for my dolls—as I now realize that it would have ended in disaster—but I used quite a bit of it to try to finish up a miniature daybed (roughly 12 inches long and eight inches wide) that I've been working on. I was using a bunch of tiny blobs of clay to add an artsy, wobbly edge to the wood + cardboard + hot glue frame, and smoothing the blobs out with water. I'd read that this clay will crack if you use too much water—and so I used it incredibly sparingly. I dabbed my fingers in a mug of water, and then smoothed the clay out; I used virtually no water with the clay. There was one spot where there was a crack in my wooden frame, and so I had to use a little extra water—and I anticipated that spot to crack due to structural reasons alone. I left my clay to dry for nearly twenty-four hours, and, when I returned, everything had cracked. The border around the edges of the bed had numerous deep cracks running through the length of what I'd sculpted. A few part of the border broke off entirely. Where I'd noted the aforementioned structural crack, and where I'd patched it with clay, the entire thing was RUINED, spider-webbed with cracks. In other structurally important areas (inner corners and around the base of the wooden posts at each corner), there were cracks along the seams. I wondered if I'd used too much water, shrugged it off, and patched the cracked areas with extra clay. I tried not to use water, but, for the aesthetics of my build (and for the ease of painting), I dabbed a my fingers into my mug a few times here and there. Again—I used DROPLETS of water, at most. I left it alone for a few hours—and, when I checked in on it again, it had already begun to crack again. This clay is incredibly unforgivable. It gets sticky easily, and it cracks at a whim. It doesn't smooth out well for detail work, and it refuses to work with water—which, I'd argue, is a sculptor's #1 basic tool. It's cheap, and it works well for kids—but for the basic sculpting needs that I have, it doesn't work at all. I will be returning it. ... show more

  • Easy to use
Color: White Size: 5lb
The texture is smooth and the smell is pleasant. The durability is ok for thicker objects, but not strong enough for thin objects.
