I then picked up a bunch of inexpensive clay flower pots, filled them with a couple of inches of rocks, then potting soil, leaving about 2-3 inches of room at the top of the pots.
Each child got a pot and a grab bag filled with these self-adhesive jeweled flowers, little glass pebbles, some fairy garden accessories, and a craft stick fairy kit. I cut moss into fours and gave each child a patch of moss for their gardens. They picked which “fairy house” they wanted and their imaginations went wild. It was so fun to see their creations!
I used simple garden sticks from the hardware store and wrote their names on them so we could tell whose was whose.
I think out of every child’s party I’ve ever thrown, this activity was the most successful. It wasn’t nearly as messy as anticipated, each child was completely into it, each one turned out adorable, and they got to take it home to remember the party and enjoy it for the rest of the summer! Now that’s a fun party activity.
