For the Love of Flower Fairies

by beth on March 25, 2010

Cicely Mary Barker cre­ated some beau­ti­ful flower fairies art­work that inspires one to won­der if fairies might be among us. They are still avail­able today & the flower fairies live on. We’ve been look­ing at the beau­ti­ful Flower Fairies web­site.

My daugh­ter has a love of all things fairies right now. Her older broth­ers also won­der if they are around us, but they are start­ing to ques­tion more.  As what hap­pens with increased age our abil­ity to explore the world of pos­si­bil­ity begins to become one of logic ver­sus mys­tery.   But my daugh­ter is still in the land of fairies.

Mamacita has been espe­cially pleased to find she can learn more about the fairies, get activ­i­ties pages, play games and a host of other free fairy items.  All at the Flower Fairies web­site.  For those who have a love flower fairies but aren’t into activ­i­ties pages any­more there are screen­savers & com­puter wall­pa­per avail­able.  Also, there is a beau­ti­ful free down­load right now of a fairy glos­sary on the U.S. ver­sion of the site.

Do you have a child who loves fairies?  How about you, do you have a fairy love?

I use to love and believe in faries until I was quite old. Wishful thinking most of the time I think. We would go hunting for mushroom circles and other signs of faries living in the woods behind our house, and my Husband still buys me fariy books and things if he spots them. :)

My girls were never into fairies, but I think they are super cute.

I love fairies, and since they’re around the house, the boys love them too. I tried having a fairy visit during the night before the spring equinox, but they weren’t too impressed. Dang.

These are the fairies of my own childhood. They lived in my grandmother’s cottage garden in upstate New York and my mother’s beachside garden in Connecticut. My beloved Auntie Godmother gave me these books that I still treasure and share with my daughter. I also have 2 framed prints in my upstairs hallway that I simply adore.
