# Marvellous Mud Creatures

This week in Forest School the challenge was to make a mud creature.  The children used their knowledge of animals to collect features such as wings, legs. horns and eyes to stick on their animal.

The biggest challenge was finding some mud to begin with, given the dry spell we have been enjoying.  This led to some creative solutions such as mixing wet grass with the soil, collecting water from the boat and even entering the crocodile swamp!
