Mud kitchen

Spring melt means mud.  The kids can play in mud all day.  It means a lot of laundry.  But they're happy and getting along so I won't complain.  I saw an idea on Pinterest a few weeks ago and it inspired me to create a way to expand their play.  A brilliant, amazing idea with infinite play value!  And it costs us nothing thanks to the Reuse Centre.  Every trip to the Reuse Centre the children scour the shelves and boxes for kitchen things.  Pots, pans, spoons, plastic dishes, silverware, platters, cups, and strainers.  All free.  Along with a few pallets rescued from the trash at Canadian Tire, a sink and tap from the Reuse we created the Mud Kitchen.

It just needs a counter.  We're waiting until we find one at the Reuse Centre

Playing in the mud on the ground is fine

There's plenty of mud to go around

In between bike rides
Enter the brilliant, amazing idea!
