What is the purpose of a fairy garden?

A fairy garden isn't just cool and creative. It's your place to escape. It's your personal retreat.

Playing with kids with microbes and soil in their hands will make them happy and satisfied in life.

Even we as adults who are lost in our 9-5 jobs and can't find time to relax and recharge, creating a Miniature fairy garden helps us connect with the inner child within each of us.

That inner child who loves to dream. That inner child who used to play imaginary games. That imaginary child who used to love her doll house.

It's our chance to reconnect back to him or her. Sort of dialing back to that time using those old school telephones and having a chat with her.

Sometimes, having a dialogue with your inner self - your 8-9 year old self is the only therapy you need in your life.

And if you're planning a summer activity with kids, then DIYing a fairytale garden is a great idea!

Research has found out that digging in soil and kids gardening has many benefits for kids.

Choose plants, figurines and other garden accessories. You can choose succulents. They thrive in the warm weather. You can also use bonsai, scotch moss, Corsican Mint and more.
You can also choose herbs like lavender, rosemary, and thyme.
Choose Organic Potting Soil for your miniature garden. I always suggest people to go with Organic Potting soil because it's free of dirt and the soil is full of nutritions. But, make sure you ask your supplier on the kind of soil your plant will need to survive. But as a general rule of thumb, plats thrive in Organic Potting soil.
Fill your container with potting soil. Arrange garden bed accessories over the potting soil to see how it works.
Use your imagination and creativity and play around with the layout.
You can make streams, hills, bridges, paths, ponds, rivers, caves and more.
