HAPPY FAIRY GARDENING!

Making Mini Fairy-Gardens!

 Time to make our own fairy garden!

 Planting the fairy garden.


The girls created their own mini-fairy gardens to take home. All of the plants they used in their fairy garden where planted by each fairy gardener herself from seeds! Our fairy gardeners  have sparkling green thumbs.

Growing Garden


We even harvested a strawberry.
 We also spied a few caterpillars and a ladybug!

Fairy Garden Activities

 Placing stones in the garden
 The seeds we planted last week have sprouted.



 We made banners/flags for the garden.


 We found a caterpillar in the garden.

Guess what the girls found in the garden?

Yep! The monarchs visited the garden once again.
 The girls found eggs and baby caterpillars and of course, they rescued them. Here they are already about 5 days old. 

DAY 2 FAIRY GARDENING

The girls planted seeds - marigolds, cherry rose, morning glory and beans.




 Fairies love sweets. The girls are making candies and cakes with clay for the fairy garden.
