I have a teenage boy neighbor who has a tumor on his spinal cord. He is home a few weeks from his second surgery. He has a lot of pain, and I have offered to go over with clay to see if some clay therapy will help him with his pain management. My question is because I am not a teacher, what would you, who teach children, say would be a good starting point? I have an extruder, and a slab roller so I can take prepared clay to him. Any suggestions? I think coil building would not require a lot of skills, and I have even thought about just giving him a lump of clay and let him make a small sculpture. There are many possibilities. Thanks in advance for any ideas. Martha
