After this morning’s mud soup fun down at the beach, I decided it would be fun to set up a little mud kitchen for Miss G to play with in the backyard. Now I don’t know if you too have seen the beautiful and elaborate mud kitchens that often pass through my Pinterest feed, but ours was nothing like those. A few items from the kitchen, some dirt from the garden, and a water source all squished onto a second hand plastic table and Miss G was pleased as punch. After all, playing with mud is supposed to be simple, right?
Gracen poured water, added greens, and gently stirred hot soup. She scooped soil, packed it down, and added pebble sprinkles to dirt cupcakes. She tended to gooey mud pancakes, flipping them every now and again.
And lucky for me, I was the chosen taste tester.
om nom nom … hahaha
Excellent fun, there is nothing more classic in childhood than making a mudpie, I love the provisions she’s got there.
Nipping over from the Outdoor Play Party linky.
You can’t beat a good mud pie! My kids seem to be drawn to dirt, so this is a favourite of ours. Thanks for stopping by the Outdoor Play Party. Off to pin
We have these all the time in the spring and autumn
