Slimy, sticky, dirty, gooey mud play is so messy…and so fun and learning rich. This session looks at why adults shouldn’t shy away from offering it up as a regular part of the curriculum. We focus on the magnificence of mud play–setting it up, supporting it, and understanding all the learning it offers.
