On 29 June 2024, International Mud Day was celebrated with great enthusiasm this year, bringing together children and parents for a unique online mud painting competition. This event aimed to encourage fun and creativity in children. The event was conducted online, allowing participants to submit their mud paintings digitally. Many children drew inspiration from nature, creating mud paintings of animals, trees, and landscape. Some entries showcased traditional and cultural themes, reflecting the rich heritage of the participants' backgrounds. The event also highlighted the benefits of mud play for children. Playing with mud enhances sensory experiences, helping children to explore textures and tactile sensations. It fosters a deeper connection with nature, promoting envi- ronmental awareness from the young age. International Mud Day's online mud painting competition was a resounding success, bringing joy and creativity to families. The event not only provided a platform for artistic expression but also emphasized the importance of playful learning and nature connection.
