Why can we mold clay into different shapes?

Why can we mold clay into different shapes?

👶 Short Answer (For Little Kids)

Because clay is soft and can be squished easily!

🧠 Detailed Explanation (For Older Kids)

Clay is made of tiny particles that can slide past each other, making it super squishy! When we press or roll it, those particles move around, and voila – it turns into whatever shape we want. Plus, when it dries, it hardens and can stay in that shape forever! That's why artists love to use clay for their amazing creations.
