Cuneiform Seals

We attempted to make cuneiform seals with salt dough, since that is what I had on hand last week. The girls formed flat tablets and then let them dry. This afternoon, we attempted to use the seals in a print-making method. We painted them and then placed paper on top to see if it would make the image on the paper. They worked OK, not great, since it is hard to make the dough completely flat and then it also dries a bit warped. Still, how could it not be fun when paint is involved?!
