    Default outdoor imaginary area

    Thought I'd share our outdoor imagination area. The kids really enjoyed making their own little village for their fairies. Can't wait to see what they will use it for tomorrow....and all it cost was £4 for a bag of bark chippings

    Lo is my dd not a mindee

    Fantastic - think the happy hooligan website has got ideas like that, I must revisit it for some inspiration.

    we've got a fairy garden too, the kids love it when the fairies visit in the night and leave new new things or move things about. This site does lovely garden fairy doors.

    Awww that looks lovely! We have a hedgehog house which is very similar and the children love decorating it with shells, stones, fir cones etc they find when we are on our walks

    I love these kind of things I've got lots of twigs/driftwood/logs/stones etc and I just pile them all up in the digging area of my garden and the kids (all ages) spend so much time making various things. At the moment I have a dinosaur kingdom in my garden, plus a little fairy corner
