Clay is an amorphous clay elf. No matter how children pinch it, it will be a very distinctive work. The richer children's imagination, the more childlike the work will be. Pottery production also needs a certain amount of willpower, because even if a thick line is completed, it has to go through rubbing, grinding and other processes, not to mention completing a small work. Children must have more confidence in their hands-on ability when they see their works glazed and burned into colorful porcelain.
