Mud play ideas

Simple set-ups for the mud kitchen, with what you need, how long it takes and what children get out of it. A new one every week.

Tins, moulds and flower sprinkles. Open for business.

Ladles, bowls and garden vegetables. Today's special: gloop.

Jars, droppers and petal colours. Mix a spell, name it, bottle it.

Brushes, sticks and a fence. Big arm movements, easy hose clean-up.

Collect, sort and cook what the garden drops. Great for autumn.

Toy dinosaurs, a muddy tray and a bath afterwards.
