Modern manufacturers offer a material that does not stick to hands, does not leave marks on the floor and clothes. Therefore, the creative process brings extremely positive emotions. In addition, sculpting improves fine motor skills, which means it helps the development of speech.

Instructions
Step 1
In order to mold a cute bunny, you need white or gray plasticine. If you wish, you can come up with a fabulous animal, the skin of which will be blue, green or yellow. A set of stacks or a dull knife, a few toothpicks, small pieces of black and pink plasticine for details will also come in handy.
Step 2
Turn the largest piece of plasticine into a torso. To do this, knead the material well and roll a ball out of it. Then give it a slightly elongated shape and gently press on one edge with your thumb and forefinger. From a smaller piece, make a head in the same way. Using a toothpick, connect the head and body, they should be joined by the narrowed sides.
Step 3
The lower legs will be in the shape of slippers. To do this, roll two identical balls, slightly smaller than the hare's head. Then pull them out and flatten them out. To make the front legs, also roll up two balls, then pull them into the sausage and press a little on one side. Break (or cut) two toothpicks in half, insert into the torso, in those places from where arms and legs will "grow". Then attach the paws to the protruding ends of the toothpicks.
Step 4
For bunny ears, roll up two plasticine sausages, then shape them into a carrot by squeezing at one end. Now flatten the blanks, but be careful not to get too thin. Stick the halves of the toothpicks symmetrically into the head, attach the ears to them, with the narrow end down.
Step 5
Use a toothpick to mark the eyes and the smiling mouth. Roll up small balls of white plasticine, gently insert them into the dimples-eye sockets on the face. Then make the pupils black - plasticine circles or small black beads, press them into the white base of the eye.
Step 6
Roll out the pink plasticine thinly. Using a stack or a knife, cut out a nose shaped like a heart from it, as well as two droplets - the inner sides of the ears. Make sure they are much smaller than the ears themselves. Attach the resulting parts to the figurine.
Step 7
The finishing touches are teeth and a tail made of white plasticine. Place a small rectangle under the bunny nose, draw a vertical line with a toothpick separating the teeth. For the tail, roll up a ball and use a toothpick to attach it to the back of your lower torso.
