Dewdrop comes along to help her parents while they work on the Fairy Food Forest. But she gets bored and tends to wander off, so they built a baby cage Fairy Play Area for her.
Complete with a sturdy fence, and stumps to use for a tea party table, or to climb on, what ever mood she is in.
We plan on adding a chalk board on the outside wall of the chicken coop, but for now, the kids have a giant cardboard box to draw on. And use for a club house. Or nap time retreat, as Dewdrop does.
We had bought a slide too, then realized that kids would slam into the fence at the end of it. So we took it back and got a swing instead.
There has already been a couple of tea parties out here. I think that helped her get used to being penned up. I wanted her to have happy thoughts about the cage Fairy Play Area from the beginning.
I think it helped, she has been spending a lot of time playing away in there while her parents work on the other side of the fence. And it doesn't hurt that her Daddy made it such a fun place to be.
Children with good imagination will always find plenty of things to ‘do’. Its great that Dewdrop has a safe ‘play area’ but is still near enough to be ‘with’ her parents. And you can never have too many tea parties 🙂
That is precious! And I know Sugarwings loves to be out there too.
What lucky, lucky children to have such a fun place to play and parents and a grammy who encourage their imagination and feedom!
lol …Karla . You always manage to find a way for those beautiful grand babies to have fun …. cage, pen, fence or not.
That is a great idea to have her confined and not wandering off—she doesn’t know that though. ANd what a great place for a tea party and it is all about her.
