Sand, grass and clay

The kids brought back some clay from the park. They found it underneath the sand in the sand area, after digging for some time. They were pretty excited about their discovery! Then they wanted to take it home. They made a ball with it to make transporting it much easier and also took some sand in an empty plastic bottle. At home, on the deck, they decided to make a forest with the clay, the sand, and pieces of slick grass they picked in the backyard. They took their time, talking to each other about how to proceed. They glued all the elements together with water. The result is a very delicate series of island-like small landscapes with trees on top. They asked me to take some pictures.
