Mud Tea
Today is the perfect day to make mud tea! Charlie, Clover, and Sasha work together to mix up some muddy springtime fun. They even set out a special spot for a chance visitor - anything is possible!
This story features a trio of saxophones (tenor, alto, and soprano), plus a sweet little kitchen-cupboard instrument. Joey discusses musical harmony and getting creative with finding sounds at home.
Rachel highlights the foundational drive to explore the world as play-based scientists, just like the trio of friends in “Mud Tea”. Mixing water and mud, transferring liquid from a kettle to teacups, and testing puddle depth with a stick are all fun ways to play with physics.
Stick around for a delightful Silly Story at the end of this episode! If your child would love a chance to fill in the blanks for next week’s Silly Story, please email their responses to sillystory@biggiantbook.com.
