Here is what we found…For the grass "swishy swashy": they ran the broom along the floor. For the river "splash splosh": they shook their water bottles. For the mud "squelch squerch": they shook the container of jelly. For the forest "stumble trip": they banged the pot with their spoons. For the snowstorm "hoooo woooo!": they blew into the top of an empty bottle. For the cave "tiptoe tiptoe": they banged the pot softly with their spoons.

Let us know what you found?
