Mud Bricks

A little home project with Danny and the three big kids: mixing mud (in the right proportions of ingredients, of course), mixing with straw and water, and casting real mud bricks.






When they were dry, they built a little semi-circular wall to look like a castle.







Still drying out here.

Update: freakish rains for four consecutive days topped our wall. Oh, well. It was still a lot of fun to have a dirty project and understand ancient technology.
