Stuck in the Muck


Reception children have been enjoying the big, bad return to the mud kitchen! Mud Kitchen 2019 is more popular than ever before, with a rapidly growing menu. Please note, cash only! 

Manuella: I am making soup!
Macie: I am making mud cookies!
Rosie: I am making cupcakes! 


Dominic: I am mixing my pancakes!


We are now able to self-select our appropriate attire for the mud kitchen, choosing our wellies and aprons to cover us up. And most of the time we are able to dress ourselves independently! We enjoy the responsibility of preparing ourselves for the mud kitchen.


We have had to be resourceful AND reflective, considering how to soften up the frozen mud.

Alex: We need to get the hose to make it wet!
Jake: And then we can dig it all up.

However, the frozen mud is quite hard and it is a real whole body workout to try and churn up the mud! This is great for our gross motor development, and it is really satisfying when we succeed! In Reception we know that if we try, try try, we can, can, can!
