The Artpar 90-color set offers an expansive range of "ultra-light" air-dry clay, which is a foam-based material designed for sensory play. This formula uses Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) and glycerin to create a soft, non-Newtonian texture that is highly resistant to sticking on carpets or clothing. Because it is extremely lightweight, finished projects are well-suited for hanging as ornaments or mobile pieces without requiring heavy support structures.
Key highlights:
- High color saturation that allows for marbling effects without the colors becoming "muddy."
- Lightweight finish that prevents projects from feeling heavy or cumbersome.
- Individually sealed pouches that help keep each of the 90 colors fresh until needed.
Specifications indicate that the material shrinks by 5-8% as the water evaporates. To maintain the life of the clay, it is recommended to place open pouches into a secondary airtight container. The included plastic tools feature standard designs for basic sculpting, making this a practical and comprehensive kit for children in the 3-8 age range who are developing their fine motor skills.
For a smaller, more portable version of this type of clay, the CiaraQ 36-color air-dry set is a more compact alternative.
