Easy Lacquer Bowls: Medieval China
Easy project that my kids really enjoyed. They love clay, play doh, slime and any others I am forgetting in that family. They can spend hours manipulating it and I think this is true for most kids. I saw this project in the Story of the World curriculum’s activity book. We generally pick and choose the projects and many a times our projects are inspired from the picture books we read. I have a video which details everything. Lacquer is a resin which comes from the sap of the Lacquer tree. In medieval China, It was mixed with paint and used on wood, tableware, pottery etc. We used a mixture of glue and water to make ‘Lacquer’
