All thing fairy from Usborne Books
New here? Then you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
I hope you have gone over to Mom is Teaching and signed up to win The Fairy Chronicles books (see my post about it below). In the meanwhile, let’s discuss fairies.
First, if you have a daughter, granddaughter or niece who’s really into the whole fairy thing, check out Usborne Books fairy offerings. There’s everything to fairy cooking and craft books to fairy tales. One favorite of Lucie’s has been the That’s Not My Fairy board book.
But now that she’s getting older, she’s really been enjoying Usborne’s sticker doll books. She already has Sticker Dolly Dressing Dolls and I plan to get her Sticker Dolly Dressing Fairies soon. The books feature removable stickers and are great to bring to a restaurant, on a car trip, or anywhere else your daughter needs to be quietly entertained.
(Warning: the books are "roll your eyes" super girly to the point of making a feminist leaning mom wonder if they could show a few doctors and police women getting dressed for work, too. Sigh. And how about some sticker doll dressing pirates and knights for boys?)
But did you know that in the U.K. they call cupcakes fairy cakes? I love that! Here are some sample British fairy cake recipes:
- The perfect fairy cake recipe from iVillage UK (with six different flavors of toppings)
- A ‘Fairy’ Easy Fairy Cake Recipe from Becks & Posh
- Nigella’s Fairy Cake recipe
