Making a Fairy Garden

Shelli and Angel made a Fairy Garden in the backyard.

We put Morning Glories and succulents around and in the Fairy Garden.  

We made a trail out of Popsicle sticks and sand.  First we made a big square and then put a little square inside of it.  Then we put sand between the Popsicle sticks.  We used a little bit of sand because we didn't want to hurt the plants.

We decorated around the garden with rocks.  We got little rocks and big rocks so it would be pretty.

We stuck a Morning Glory leaf in the soil and we put some bird seed inside of it. It was curved like a bowl so we could put in bird seed.

Then we got a mushroom and put bird seed in it also. We ripped the stem off and got a little stick and pushed it into the mushroom.  So the mushroom bowl was upside down.  We stuck it in the soil just like the Morning Glory leaf.  

We made a bench out of popsicle sticks.  We used 5 sticks at the bottom and back of the seat and two sticks for the legs.

We pretended that peppermint leaves and sage were trees.  We put one over the bench for shade for the fairies.

Then we put two fairies on the bench and another one in the garden.  

When it rained, all the little birds came and ate the birdseed we had left in our Fairy Garden!
