FAQs

What are the main components of this craft kit?

The kit includes Stone Clay® (with real stone powder), Silk Clay®, Foam Clay®, decorative stickers, a rub-on tool, and googly eyes, along with step-by-step instructions.

What is the recommended age for this kit?

This kit is recommended for children aged 5 years and older.

How long does the Stone Clay® take to harden?

The hardening time can vary depending on the thickness of the clay and the environmental conditions. It is best to allow it to dry thoroughly before decorating.

Are the clays safe for children?

Yes, the Silk Clay® and Foam Clay® included in this kit are non-toxic and safe for children to use.

Can I create other shapes besides stones?

While the kit is named 'Stone with Insect,' you can certainly use the Stone Clay® to mould other shapes if desired, though it is designed to create a stone effect.

What skills does this kit help develop?

This kit helps develop fine motor skills, creativity, imagination, and visual perception training.

How should I store the unused clay?

Unused clay should be stored in airtight containers or resealable bags to prevent it from drying out.

Can the finished stones be washed?

The finished stone decorations can be wiped with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh cleaning agents.

Troubleshooting

Stone Clay® is too stiff to mould.

Ensure the clay has not been exposed to air for too long. If slightly dry, try kneading it thoroughly. For significant dryness, it may be difficult to restore plasticity.

Clays are sticking to fingers or tools.

Ensure your hands and tools are clean and dry. If using Silk Clay® or Foam Clay®, a very small amount of water can sometimes help prevent sticking, but avoid making the clay too wet.

Decorations are not sticking to the hardened stone.

Apply a small amount of water or a tiny dab of Silk Clay® to the surface of the stone where the decoration will be attached. Press firmly.

Stickers are not adhering well.

Ensure the stone surface is completely dry and free from dust. For rub-on stickers, ensure the correct side is placed on the stone and use the provided tool with firm pressure.
