Martin & Sylvia's: Saturdays! Printable Project Page: Mud Pies
In the Martin & Sylvia: Saturdays! story “Lemons and Mud,” Martin and Sylvia want to make a lemonade stand - but don’t have any lemons. As it is mud season, they have plenty of mud - so Daddy suggests they make mud pies!
To make your own mud pies, you need to combine dirt with just enough water to form solid, clay-like mud. Form the mud into a ball and then squash it down into a round disk. Here is a mud pie! Now you can use leaves, flower petals, sand or pebbles to decorate.
