In reply to Michelle Ferrell.

It’s just a water play activity, Michelle. There isn’t an end result. It’s not a craft, but an activity. The children simply scoop and pour and stir the water, and add bits and bobs from the garden, along with shells and stones that I’ve set out as “ingredients”. It’s a bit like making mud pies, only their making “fairy soup”. I hope that explanation helps.

I guess I don’t understand… it is making a glaze on the rocks to attack the flower petals and glitter to the rocks and shells?? I guess I don’t understand what it does? I am a girly girl and I think I am missing the point… help me understand what the craft is doing? thank you so much!!! <3

This website is awesome. My wife and I can’t wait to start doing some of these things with our daughter. I found this site by accident… happy, happy accident.

I loved this idea so much. We don’t have a garden so we did an out and about version. I just posted about it. Thank you so much for such a great idea

My daughter would love this fairy soup! It gets the kids outside and keeps the “mess” out there too! 🙂

Oh how fun!
Mine are always picking the flowers… Never thought of getting out the water and letting them make soup!

We may need to try this one!

What gorgeous fun! My children did an activity very similar to this all off their own back the other day, involving their Ikea cooking set and almost all the daisies in the garden. It was butterfly soup, though, designed to attract more butterflies to the garden! By the way, Nurture Store has just finished a really sweet fairy week worth checking out. I’ll try and send the link in a bit… Thanks again for your blog, I love watching what a great time your hooligans have!
