Ocean has being experiementing with clay

 I found the clay at Paradise beach. I had to dig about 60cm down near a creek and there was lots of water so we used the water to soften it so it would be easier to get out. The clay was heavy.

Once we got the clay out we put it into a creek we dammed up. We made cups bowls and plates with the clay and left it sitting on a log to dry out for 2 nights. I found out that some of it stayed soft but most of it dried.

We made some clay balls with the clay too. I thought it would be a good idea to use with my slingshot, but I didn't in the end and I wish I had taken them home. I liked feeling the clay as i made the balls.

We tried drying it in the fire, that worked. We put some hand sanitiser in our clay things we made and set it on fire, I found out that hand sanitiser caught on fire easily because of the alcohol.
