Fairy House Craft

Fairy House Craft



Very Easy craft with the kids!  All we did was use an aluminum foil cooking tin (although any container will work)...
Fill with dirt, added some moss and some grass/plants.
Then we built the house..
Materials can vary, but we started with a card board box and cut in windows and a door, from there we added the twigs along the outside, and some bark for the roof. Inside we covered a small block of wood with grass and a pine cone with grass to create the bed. Used bark and twigs to make the tables, and other natural things from outside (black walnuts and twigs for the chairs, some small twigs for shelves, etc)..
The best part is going outside and finding what you have to make it personally to you and your children. 
Finished with some rocks and sand (even created a little "fire pit" and sitting area for the "fairy").

Try to keep it as nature friend as possible! Think Tinkerbell as a tinker.. aside from some hot glue, of course!
