Build away! Twig walls? A roof of bark or one thatched with leaves? A pebble path? A pine-cone fence? The options are endless.A hidden site is usually best to keep your house safe-unless you want to put it where passers-by might spot it and smile. You can pick flowers from your own yard, if you ask first. Twigs, bark, pine cones, leaves, stones, acorns, flower petals, and many other objects make perfect building materials. A mouse house, toad abode, cricket cottage, or beetle bungalow would be just as much fun to make. Will fairies really move in? Well, build one and see! Or you could build for another kind of creature. What’s a fairy house? It’s a very small dwelling that’s big on imagination-and it’s all made from things you can find in nature. In backyards and woodlands and other out-of-the-way corners, kids and their families are busy building fairy houses.
