Mud

It is well-known that children and mud have a long history together - at the very least thousands and thousands of years. I came home yesterday morning to discover that our three youngest had decided to make a practical study of the as yet relatively unexamined properties of the new mud in our new garden (I was pleased to note that our brief encounters, explorations and discussions around cave art seem to have inspired at least some of the study methods chosen).

Pottery or Pie-making?
