We received a My Fairy Garden™ Freya’s Magical Cottage™ for free from PlayMonster to play with and review. Opinions are our own.
Eva took the lead on this review. I selected this product with her in mind. She has always wanted to set up a fairy garden outside and we just don’t do much gardening. This seemed like a great product to use indoors so that she could tend her own little fairy garden. I love that she still has that spirit of curiosity and wonder at things like fairies.
The toy itself is pretty sold in its design. You get everything you need to tend the garden plus a few cute little items to play with like a table and chairs so that there can be tea parties in the fairy garden. I like that there is a small wire that the fairy can be attached to to make it look like she is flying around the garden. It certainly adds to the whimsy of the toy.
When we moved into our house and Eva was just about 5 years old we found a fairy statue out on the side of the house with a broken wing. She made it her fairy that tended to the gardens on the side yard. So, she has always loved fairies and believed that they were in gardens. So glad that she still has some of this left in her heart. Eva can tell you more about the toy in her own words in the video below.
Here is the official description of the toy and what is included.
My Fairy Garden™ is the first of its kind: a toy that’s also a real, live garden! Children love kits that allow them to grow plants at home; it gives them a connection to nature and a sense of satisfaction at having nurtured a living thing. My Fairy Garden takes it to a new, exciting level by allowing children to interact with it as part of an enchanting play set!
Children plant the quick-germinating seeds, and care for their garden, all while setting up and playing with adorable fairies, woodland friends and accessories! It’s a great collectible line and a fun addition to the ever-growing STEM category of toys, for children ages 4 and up!
Freya’s Magical Cottage™ — An adorable flower pot that’s a welcoming fairy home where Freya entertains friends and tends to her garden! The set includes the flowerpot cottage with opening doors and terrace, tray, cottage furniture, toadstool, Freya the fairy, her friend, and gardening accessories and tools.
