So Many FairiesSo Many Fairies
There are so many magical beings in the world: stone beings, air fairies, wood elves, fire sprites. Most of us cannot see or hear them, but sometimes — especially when we are very young — we can. Each week in So Many Fairies, children will enter the magic of the natural world, encounter fairy folk, and meet questions of ecology and sustainability with their imaginations.

Sparkle Craft: How to Knit a Fairy Poke
We’ve created an easy-to-follow tutorial for making your own Fairy Poke! Simple knitting crafts like this help children develop fine motor skills, build confidence through play, and teach patience as well as creativity.

Sparkle Kitchen: Raspberry Friands
Made in a mini-muffin tin, these raspberry friands are both the perfect size and have just the right amount of whimsy to travel along on a good fairy quest.

Nature School Project: Rock Stacking
This project accompanies the second story in the Martin & Sylvia: Nature School Audio Book – “The Deer Mice”.

Sparkle Crafts: Go to Sleep Fairy Pillow
It seems Martin and my Oliver both need a “Go to Sleep” fairy this week. Unlike Sylvia, I didn’t find one, but I do have a few tricks up my sleeve for encouraging restful sleep.

Sparkle Craft: Quick, Low-Sew Wings
These wings take just the tiniest bit of very basic sewing — hence the “low-sew” designation — and most of the heavy lifting is done by the one big knot you'll tie in the center of the fabric. If you can tie your shoes, you can do this!

Our Newest Collection!Sparkle Sleepytime - en español
Ya sea durante los largos y activos días del verano o los más cortos y ajetreados días del invierno, a veces nuestros pequeños necesitan ayuda para bajar el ritmo. Las historias de Sparkle Sleepytime son sencillas, suaves y lentas, contadas con el objetivo de dar la bienvenida a los pequeños y mayores a un momento de descanso o de sueño. Cada cuento presenta a un adorable animalito en una dulce aventura, y todos terminan con los animales acurrucándose en sus madrigueras, nidos o camas de plumas, listos para cerrar los ojos y quedarse dormidos. Esta serie es perfecta para la hora de la siesta, los ratos de tranquilidad y la hora de dormir, o para cualquier momento en el que desees una historia particularmente tranquila y relajante para tus pequeños.
