Mud is the quintessential to the outdoors. The creators of International Mud Day found a way to help all of the children of the Earth feel closer to each other and what a better way to do it than through the Earth itself? International Mud Day began in 2009 at a World Forum event, when people got together to talk about ways to encourage feelings of community and appreciation for the world around us. The collaboration that followed has inspired educators, children,and families across the globe to celebrate International Mud Day together each year on June 29
