In connection with our previous post; The Fairy Forest of Grass Lake Village, parents are able to stimulate their children’s imaginations and prompt creative thinking with the Fairy Doors.

How to Make a Fairy Door
The best part about this craft is the ability for your child to use their creative mind while designing their door.
- Start by cutting your crafting sticks in half and then gluing them to the canvas, or wherever you are creating the fairy door. Or keep them whole to create a bigger fairy house.
- Start with some glue around the door for your moss, Easter grass, and other trinkets.
- Place a small amount of glue on your door for a handle.
- Decorate more if you like or stop there for magic!
