🎉 A Kids Party Activity — Sorted!

Planning a birthday party and looking for something different to keep everyone entertained?

Give one Kids Pottery Kit to each child and you've got a complete creative activity ready to go.

Every child receives their own clay, pottery tools, paints and brushes, so there's no need to buy lots of separate craft supplies or hire a pottery instructor.

Kids can:

🎨 Follow the same tutorial together
🏺 Choose different pottery projects
🌈 Create their own completely original designs
🎁 Take their creation, paints and brushes home to finish later

And once their pottery is complete, they'll have a handmade keepsake from the party rather than another disposable party activity.

Less organising for you. More creating for them.

⚠️ Planning a Pottery Party? Here's One Important Thing to Know

Air-dry clay needs to be completely dry before it can be painted.

For most birthday parties and one-session activities, we recommend having the kids sculpt their pottery during the party and take their included paints and brushes home to decorate their creation once it has dried.

Alternatively, turn it into two creative activities and organise a separate painting session once everyone's pottery is ready.

Drying time varies depending on the size and thickness of the creation and surrounding conditions.

💨 Want to Speed Up Drying?

A hair dryer can be used on a low heat setting to help speed up the process.

Keep the hair dryer moving continuously and avoid concentrating heat on one area for too long. Larger or thicker creations may still need additional air-drying time.

Always make sure the pottery is completely dry before applying the acrylic paint.

🌈 Perfect for Parties, Holidays & Creative Play

The Kids Pottery Kit is a fun hands-on activity for:

• Kids birthday parties
• Pottery-themed parties
• Playdates
• School holiday activities
• Rainy days
• Family craft afternoons
• Classroom activities
• OSHC & vacation care programs
• Children's workshops & community groups
• Creative birthday & Christmas gifts

Whether you're looking for a quiet afternoon activity for one child or organising a much larger group, the kits make it easy to get kids creating.

📵 A Creative Alternative to Screen Time

Sometimes kids just need something they can actually make with their hands.

Pottery lets them roll, pinch, coil, cut, press, shape, smooth and paint while turning an idea into something tangible.

A phone or tablet is only needed if they choose to follow one of the video tutorials. The pottery activity itself is hands-on, tactile and creative.

And because there's no single correct outcome, children are free to experiment, make mistakes, change their ideas and create something that's entirely their own.

🎁 An Activity AND Something to Keep

One of the things we love most about pottery is that the fun doesn't end when the activity does.

Children get the experience of creating something themselves and then a handmade piece they can keep, display or give to someone special.

That makes the Kids Pottery Kit a great gift for children who love:

🎨 Art & craft
🏺 Modelling clay
✋ Making things with their hands
🌈 Painting & decorating
💡 Creative projects
🎁 Handmade gifts

It's not just another toy — it's an experience they get to create themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Kids Pottery Kit suitable for birthday parties?

Absolutely.

Simply order one kit per participating child so everyone has their own clay, tools, paints and brushes.

Children can all follow the same tutorial, choose different projects or create whatever they like.

Do children need previous pottery experience?

No.

The kit and tutorials are designed to be beginner-friendly. Children can follow a video step by step or simply use the materials to create their own design.

Do children need to be supervised?

Yes.

A responsible adult should supervise children while they use the pottery tools, wire clay cutter, paints and other kit components. The level of hands-on assistance required will depend on each child's age and ability.

What age is the Kids Pottery Kit suitable for?

The amount of assistance required will depend on the individual child's age and ability. Because the kit contains pottery tools and a wire clay cutter, responsible adult supervision is required during use.

Do we need a pottery wheel?

No. The projects use simple hand-building techniques, so no pottery wheel is required.

Does the clay need to go into a kiln?

No. The included modelling clay dries naturally in the air and does not need to be kiln-fired.

How do children access the tutorials?

The kit includes an instruction sheet with QR codes linking directly to the pottery tutorials.

Simply scan the chosen project using a smartphone or tablet and follow along.

How many pottery tutorials are included?

Children receive access to 15 beginner-friendly pottery tutorials, covering a range of projects and techniques.

Do children have to follow a tutorial?

Not at all!

The tutorials provide guidance and inspiration, but children are also free to create animals, sculptures, decorations, dishes, gifts or anything else they can imagine.

Can children paint their pottery straight away?

No. Air-dry clay needs to be completely dry before acrylic paint is applied.

For birthday parties, we recommend letting children sculpt during the party and then take their included paints and brushes home to decorate their pottery once dry.

How long does the clay take to dry?

Drying time varies depending on the size and thickness of the creation and surrounding conditions.

Larger and thicker pieces will generally take longer than small, thin creations. Always make sure the pottery is completely dry before painting.

Can I speed up the drying process?

You can use a hair dryer on a low heat setting.

Keep it moving continuously rather than concentrating heat on one section. Larger or thicker creations may still require additional air-drying time.

Can every child make something different?

Absolutely.

Each child can choose their own tutorial or create something completely original.

How many kits should I order for a kids party?

We recommend one Kids Pottery Kit per participating child so every guest has their own clay, tools, paints and brushes.

Is everything included?

The kit includes the main materials needed for the pottery-making and decorating activity.

You'll also need to provide a protected work surface, small cup of water, paper towel or wipes and responsible adult supervision.

Can children take their creations home?

Yes.

For parties, children can take their clay creation along with their included paints and brushes home so they can decorate it once completely dry.
