Question 1

How much is this pack by volume? (How much space would it fill?)

Accepted Answer

There are 4 packets each w/ 8 Oz of modeling compound. I am not know for my math skills & have never found cm cubed to be a practical answer to this type of question. So allow me to answer from a father of 4. There is enough in 1 packet for the following handprint combinations:- one 7 yo + one 5 yo- one 7 yo + three 2 yo - one 7 yo + five 6 month old- two 5 yo + three 2 yo- two 5 yo + seven/eight 6 mo old- three 2 yo + nine/ten 6 mo oldEach combination includes enough excess to allow for the creation of distracting "snakes" or other whimsical non-realistic creatures to occupy those not making handprints at the exact moment. And there are 4 packets in each container.I was unsure of the volumes myself and bought 4 containers. I still have 2 left for this year's handprints and we have several strange presumably woodland creatures that I failed to label accordingly. Let me also make it clear that I am not attempting to offend those blessed with math skills with my comments. Please do not infer from the above that I think my description of volume is an acceptable alternative to the current definitions. While helpful to me when attempting to gauge how much material will be required for handprints, it could never stand alone as a basis for currency. Therefore is clearly no substitute for math. Even cm cubed.   I hope this helps...and doesn't offend anyone.

Question 2

What is the difference between this product and the "Crayola Air Dry Clay"?

Accepted Answer

The clay is more durable and hard when dry, the magic is more light weight and flexible

Question 3

I am undecided between this big tub of 4 colors and the big box of 1oz individuals.  Will this clay stay soft if kept in ziplock bags or tupperware?

Accepted Answer

I keep 2 buckets in my winter condo for the grandkids ages 2-12.  it has lasted YEARS!  I always put in ziplock bags when they leave & I store them for 8 months in the ziplocks & bucket when I am in my permanent home. great product & keeps all ages busy.  it is like a fidget toy. so grandmas, if you want to talk to your adult children & keep kids occupied & don't want grandkids messing up the whole house, this is for you! no mess, no staining

Question 4

Will I be able to make 23 hand prints (5 year olds-just one of their hands) from this or would I need more?

Accepted Answer

I think it would be enough, I don't know if you can make them all white, but there is more white than the other colors provided.also depends how thick the prints are..
