The Evolution of Our Fairy-Filled Nature Yard

We found a little hole in the fence that looked like a secret 
passageway for fairies. So I asked the children what we should 
do about it and one little girl suggested surprising them 
by decorating it for them, so we began gathering 
little bits of nature from around the school 
yard that we thought they might like, 
such as: moss, bark, twigs, 
pebbles, walnuts 
and acorns. 

 

When the children came back to the secret passage with their nature
treasures, they discovered a set of stairs I made out of pieces of
bark. They instantly joined in by adding every bit of their 
collection to the fairy home. Here is what they came 
up with. It has been continually evolving 
ever since. In fact this was only 
the beginning......
