Susan Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 That sounds lovely but cant think of anything off hand. Why dont you and the children write your own??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panders Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Not mud pies, but the story Stone Soup can be inspiring, the children bring whatever they can find to the pot to stir it up. Not sure where our copy is at the moment basically a travelling fox stops at the farm gate and asks for some food, the animals all say no, so cunning Mr. fox asks if he can have some water to make stone soup, he puts the water onto boil and puts in a stone tastes it and says ah it needs some........... do you have any? gradually the animals become more and more intrigued and bring him all the bits of food he asks for and at the end they all share the soup. Joe's Cafe, not really a recipe but Joe is so busy baking mud pies for his Creepy Crawly Cafe he forgets to look after his baby sister. Babette Cole's The Slimy Book isn't mud pies but some lovely rhyming words that children love about slimy stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I know this is the wrong thread but I can't find the current one! Mud I like mud I like it on my clothes I like it on my fingers I like it in my toes Dirt's pretty ordinary and dust's a dud For a really good mess-up I like mud!

Sue R Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Attaching a focus plan I included ages ago in a Topic support article. I hope! A thought - I use Office 2007 - I know sometimes it can be difficult to open, so how about the second option Mud_pies.docx Mud_pies.rtf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mrs Tiggy Winkle Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I knew there was more to it... In your hands you hold the spade, Feel its well worn wood. Now you drive it in the earth, Drive it deep and good Dig, dig, digging dirt, Dirt inside your vest. Dig, dig, digging dirt, Digging dirt is best. Soon your hands are red and raw, Blisters on the way, But your spade just wants to dig All the long, hot day. Dig, dig, digging dirt, Dirt inside your vest. Dig, dig, digging dirt, Digging dirt is best. Wes Magee, A Very First Poetry Book, Oxford University Press Thought I'd better type it all and where it's from, but personally I just like the chorus for littlies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
