Pre-coloured clay that hardens without the need of a kiln?
Sounds like an easy way to do some sculpture and it would be perfect for kids!

Introducing a new member of the Jackson’s brand family: a high quality air dry clay.

Jackson’s Air Dry Clay

You can shape the clay by hand or use press moulds, stamps or cutters. It dries and hardens within hours or days depending on size of piece. You may wish to add water to make it more pliable to use. You can store in in its own airtight container to prevent drying. Partially dried clay can be made workable again by wrapping in a damp cloth overnight.
