Lesson plan
Puddle
s in a forest puddle A puddle is a small accumulation of liquid, usually water, on a surface. It can form either by pooling in a depression on the surface, or by surface tension upon a flat surface. Puddles are often characterized by murky water or mud due to the disturbance and dissolving of surrounding sediment, primarily due to precipitation. Generally a puddle is shallow enough to walk through, and too small to traverse with a boat or raft. Small wildlife may be attracted to puddles.
