(Not edible, but definitely great fun!)
4 cups dirt
1 cup flour
Mix the dirt and flour with water until it molds
and sticks together. Shape into
cookies, pies, birds nests, and other shapes. Dry in the sun.
Mud
Painting
You’ll
need plastic containers, old paint brushes, paper, and some mud for this art
project. Collect samples of dirt
from several different areas in the plastic containers. Compare samples. Stir in water and paint with brushes or
fingers.
Materials: ball, whistle
Children stand in
a circle and pass around the ball (hot potato). When you blow the whistle, the child holding the ball must
leave the circle. The game is
played until there is just one child left standing.
*This game can be
adapted easily to play inside.
Have the children sit in a circle and pass a beanbag while you play
music. When the music stops, the
one holding the beanbag is out of the game.
