Critters for Your Clubhouse
Create cool critters to play in your Critter Clubhouse. Fun animals are hiding in Crayola Model Magic® Fusion™! All they need is your imagination to come alive!
1. Is there one pet you dream of owning? Are there animals you wish you could play with every day? What would a jungle menagerie look like? Use Crayola Model Magic® Fusion™ to create all of the animals you can imagine! Try your own ideas or follow these steps to create easy animal figures.
2. Bodies. Roll two Fusion balls. Or wrap Fusion around two small balls of foil or plastic caps. Press the balls together to create a head and body. Adjust the size so your critter looks like the animal in your imagination. Model Magic Fusion sticks to itself and most craft surfaces.
3. Add features to each animal figure to make it unique. Some tips: EYES: Roll small Fusion balls and press onto the head. Make eyes small or large, round or pointed, depending on the animal you imagine. NOSE: Roll, flatten, or poke holes in Fusion to make a nose. MOUTH: Press a mouth into the head with modeling tools. EARS: Design ears for your critter. Press Fusion flat for floppy ears. Squeeze the compound to make ears that are long or pointed. Press on the head near the eyes. LEGS: Roll thick Fusion snakes between palms or on a table. Use a craft stick or plastic knife to cut same-size sections for legs. Press on the body. TAIL: Roll a thin Fusion snake. Cut it to size. Arrange it for a curly tail. Or make a bushy tail by pressing a plastic comb into a long piece of modeling compound. APPEARANCE: Press small Fusion balls onto the head and body for a spotted critter. Roll thin snakes and press on for a striped animal. Push Fusion through a garlic press and press on the creature to make it look furry. Wash the garlic press in warm soapy water when you are finished.
4. Model Magic Fusion dries to the touch overnight and dries completely in 2 to 3 days, which is plenty of time to create more critters and a Critter Clubhouse for them to play in!
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
Crayola Modeling Materials including Crayola Model Magic®, and Model Magic Fusion™, Crayola Air-Dry Clay, and Crayola Dough—
- Keep away from open flames. Do not use to make candleholders, hot plates, trivets, or other similar objects that will be used or placed near fire and other heat sources.
- Do not put in an oven, microwave, or kiln.
- Do not make into vessels/containers that will hold unpackaged food.
- The use of modeling material to make items that look like food is discouraged for children younger than age 5 to avoid their confusion with real food.
- Unless sealed with a water-resistant glaze, do not make projects exposed to or immersed in water, such as boats or outdoor bird feeders. They would disintegrate when exposed to moisture.
- Crayola Dough—contains gluten (wheat flour) as an ingredient.
- Crayola Air-Dry Clay, Crayola Model Magic and Model Magic Fusion are gluten-free. However, they are produced on the same machinery as Crayola Dough which does contain gluten. Although the machines are cleaned prior to the start of each production run, there is a slight possibility that trace amounts of gluten from Crayola Dough may be present in the other modeling compound products. For information regarding specific ingredients or allergic concerns, please call our Consumer Affairs department at 1-800-272-9652 weekdays between 9 AM and 4 PM Eastern Standard Time.
Modeling Tools—Use the least dangerous point or edge sufficient to do the job. For example, craft sticks, plastic knives and forks, and cookie cutters can cut or carve modeling materials.
Wood—By its nature, wood is rough and may contain splinters or sharp points
