Make a beautiful, magical fairy garden with your child to
encourage imaginative play and story telling! To create this
fairy garden we used: - a half barrel planter - flowers and
shrubs - a piece of tree trunk (from our Christmas tree!) - a
ceramic bird’s house - toy fairies Cakie then made a path way
amongst all the elements using some small pebbles and added a
few flowers from the garden for decoration! Next we introduced
some fairies to explore their new home! Cakie wanted to give
them a real house to live in so we found one more bird house
from her 3rd birthday fairy party and it made the perfect
addition in amongst the flowers. Next stop, playing and
storytelling! Cakie is very much into creative play at the
moment and immediately set about making up a wonderful story
about her fairy characters and the “evil queen” that they were
hiding from. She has now told me that she’s taking away the toy
fairies so that the real fairies can arrive! The benefits of
creating an outdoor small world play scene like this
