You will need something to sculpt with: clay, playdoh, or sculpting medium clay You will also need some tools: pick, knifes, and depending on the material, things like sanding paper etc. To finish the sculpture you might want to seal or paint it. You should plan to clean up after your sculpturing: rag, broom and dustpan etc.

The easiest type is a thumb in a good job thumbs up position. A foot is not too tough either. Both can be modeled lifesize or otherwise. Why not do a baby foot?
