[papercreters] Sculptural mix for pumpkins

Hi all was wondering if anyone had a really good easy to work with mix
for sculpture work. My daughters want to make their pumpkins this year
for falloween.
We chopped up 20 gallons of pulp and put it in buckets and froze it
till we can get to it next weekend. Any suggestions?
The girls are 10 and 13 so they can get their hands dirty on this one.
