Hold a Fairy Garden Party - Anyone for Tea?

Talking about fairy gardens for children yesterday got me thinking about what to do in such a garden, and what better way to celebrate fairy-style than with a fairy garden party?

Just picture the scene - fairy cakes, fairy lights, everyone dressed up with wings and wands... fairy heaven!

How to Make a Fairy Garden for Children

Okay, so I've talked a lot about fairies and attracting them to a fairy garden. But what about those of you who just want to make a garden for your kids to play in? Don't worry, I've lots of tips for you too! Having worked with children in the past I know how passionate they can be about the environment, and this is the perfect opportunity to teach them more about it. If you make a children's fairy garden for your kids, you'll have the chance to:
  • Teach them about nature, gardening, the environment, flowers and science
  • Spark their imagination through games, play, writing, drawing, crafts, role-play and dressing up
  • Get them involved in projects, such as building a bird house or growing their own food

    Working with Fairies

    Today I want to go back to the topic of seeing fairies. Aside from the sheer delight of knowing there are fairies in your garden, once you learn how to experience fairies, you can work with them to bring harmony, protection and good fortune to your household. But don't go rushing into this... fairies are wary of humans and will only choose to work with you if you have already taken the time and effort to prove to them the following:
    1. You respect them (and their privacy)
    2. You respect nature 
    3. You work hard to protect the planet
    4. You have joy, love and laughter in your heart
    5. You love Mother Earth and your garden unconditionally!
