Welcome to the wildly wonderful state of Washington, or as we like to call it, the "Wacky WA"! This place is more than just its world-famous apples and the Space Needle, it's a magical land where mountains kiss the sky, oceans dance with the shore, and forests are so lush and thick, you'd expect Bigfoot to stroll past you, with a latte from the original Starbucks, of course! Now, sit tight and let's swoop down to one of the most charming corners of Wacky WA. Here, you'll find a spirited group of kids, bubbling with creativity and zest. They are the Pottery Pros, little wizards with clay, who can sculpt dreams into reality. They meet every weekend, amidst the fragrant pine trees, in the coziest cabin you've ever seen. Leading the Pottery Pros is the legendary Clay-Mo, a dinosaur with an artist's soul, and let me tell you, this isn't your average T-Rex! He’s a blue dinosaur, with polka-dots and wears a silly beret on his head. He might have tiny arms, but oh boy, can those arms create pottery wonders! Clay-Mo and the Pottery Pros laugh, play, and get their hands muddy together. They create everything from goofy-looking cookie jars that cross their eyes, to vases that giggle when you put flowers in them. Their creations are as quirky, vibrant, and full of life as the Pottery Pros themselves. So, if you ever find yourself in Wacky WA, listen for the laughter echoing from the cabin in the woods. That's Clay-Mo and the Pottery Pros, sculpting not just clay, but also a whole lot of fun and memories. They're the true masters of mess-terpieces!
