We usually have Ann here every year to do one of her workshops with the kids. She is very enthusiastic and spends about and hour and half between reading the story, giving instruction on proper techniques in molding clay, and then the actual creation process. It helps to have an extra pair of adult hands when the kids are working on their animals, especially with the younger kids. But the kids come away with some real clay art, and everyone always loves it. Ann is great fun and truly an "artist type," so she's pretty serious when it comes down to the creation process. She's also been great working with the teens on making masks. Highly recommended and fairly reasonably priced. Rating: 9
