Tell-On Monday we played with mud.

Show- As soon as I put my hands in I was like ewwwwww!!. Then I put my hands in again and I was like this isn't to bad. It felt like mushy potatoes that slowly fell through your fingers.It smelt like a garden that had some work to be done in it.I was gooey when it was in your hands but, when it was out of your hands it was thick and hard.It was satisfying to play with,you could squish it squash it and best of all poke it.When we were playing with it I could hear the thick brown liquid being poked and prodded and the other children were laughing and screaming.I thought The thick brown mixture was saying quietly “play with me play with me”. Then it got stuck in my finger nails and then I thought it was time to go inside and wash my hands.

That was the magic,marvellous,mucky,murky mud!
