The four year olds are making leaves for the trees in the design.
They roll out the clay and then place a loquat leaf over the top. They roll the leaf into the clay and this imprints the vein patterns into the leaf. Then either Debbie or the child, cut the leaf and smooth the edges of it. Then the leaf is painted with underglazes.
Some of the leaves may also be used in the border of the mosaic.
