We used to do this as kids too, although I seem to recall mine had large quantities of mud involved…

My kids are huge fans of ‘outdoor cooking’ or making mud pies. We have had to set some ground rules ourselves, such as, don’t take the dirt from mummy’s pot plants On the right day and in the right mood, they will do this for an hour unaided. Aaah bliss

From cooking food to making potions… that is where we’re at with this fun activity. Hours and hours of concentrated imagination outside… such a fab idea!

@Book Chook

Oh yes, of course! I should have thought to add Wombat Stew as a reading suggestion Thanks for the Sing Song poem too. You are a fountain of knowledge.

Lovely activity! Another followup would be to share a picture book like Wombat Stew, or Dumpling Soup. Oh, and I just thought of a great poem, Sink Song. Here’s a quote:
“Scouring out the porridge pot
Round and round and round!

Out with all the scraith and scoopery,
Lift the eely ooly droopery,
Chase the glubbery slubbery gloopery
Round and round and round!”

I have an insatiable desire to see more of your garden, you tease us with little snippets here and there and it seems it is a vast space with so much potential for wonderful fun! And I wish we had macadamia nuts in our yard. .-= Christie @ Childhood 101´s last blog ..Putting Mum Back on the Agenda =-.
