Understanding International Fairy Day in EYFS & KS1
Discover a world of magic and imagination! ✨🧚♀️🌸 International Fairy Day is a special, unofficial celebration that happens every year on June 24th. It’s a day dedicated to the whimsical world of fairies and mythical creatures. Fairies are a wonderful way for us to explore our imagination, creativity, and the beauty of nature. This day is a reminder to look for the magic in small things, whether it's a colourful flower in the garden or a tiny, sparkly stone. It’s a chance to tell stories, create and play, and believe in the wonder that makes our world so special.
For early years settings, nurseries, preschools, childminders, and Year 1 and Year 2 classrooms, this day provides a fantastic theme for exploring traditional tales, fantasy worlds, creativity, role play, and outdoor learning. It’s about encouraging children to use their imaginations, develop their storytelling skills, and find joy in the natural world. This day offers wonderful planning ideas and inspiration for engaging activities & invitations that truly resonate with young minds, making learning about narrative, creativity, and nature wonderfully fun!
Why Is a Fairy Theme Valuable for Young Children?
Integrating International Fairy Day and themes of fairies and imagination into your practice with young children (aged 0-7) is a fun way to build emotional development and a connection to the natural world.
Fosters Imagination and Creativity: Encourages children to create their own stories, characters, and worlds.
Enhances Storytelling and Language: Provides a rich context for developing vocabulary and narrative skills.
Builds a Connection to Nature: Inspires children to explore the outdoors in a new and exciting way.
Supports Emotional Expression: Allows children to explore different feelings and scenarios through the magical world of fairies.
Promotes Cooperative Play: Encourages children to work together to build fairy homes or act out fairy-themed stories.
Engaging Fairy & Magic Activities for International Fairy Day (EYFS & KS1)
Time to enter the enchanted world of fairies for International Fairy Day with these planning ideas and activities perfect for EYFS and KS1 children. The focus is on imagination, storytelling, and connecting with nature! Many of these early years and year 1 activities can be supported by our dedicated ‘Fairies’, ‘Forest School’, ‘Gardening’, and ‘Traditional/Fairy Tales’ resources.
Here's some inspiration for celebrating International Fairy Day in your setting. The following ideas may be adapted for various EYFS and KS1 settings. In EYFS, these ideas are best viewed as invitations to explore, investigate and engage in meaningful play rather than activities every child is expected to complete. Practitioners may choose to follow children's interests. In KS1, some ideas may also be used within more structured learning opportunities where appropriate.
Printable resources to support the following ideas may be found further down this page.
(Please use your own discretion and knowledge of your children to ensure appropriateness of each activity and safety concerning any materials given and activity undertaken.)
Creative & Imaginative Play
Building a Fairy House: Take children outside to build a fairy house using natural materials like sticks, leaves, flowers, and stones. This is a wonderful hands-on activity that encourages creativity and fine motor skills.
Fairy Role Play: Use our 'Fairies - Role-Play Masks - Colouring' and our 'Fairies - Lollipop Puppets' to act out a fairy tale or create a brand-new one.
Fairy Potions: Gather natural items like flowers, leaves, water, and glitter to make 'fairy potions'. Encourage children to mix them and invent what each potion does.
Designing Fairies: Use our 'Fairies - Design a Fairy' and 'Fairies - Draw a Fairy' sheets to create your own unique fairy characters.
Outdoor & Nature-Based Fun
Fairy Scavenger Hunt: Give children a basket and challenge them to find natural items for the fairies, such as a smooth stone for a bed or a leaf for a blanket.
Following Fairy Trails: Use our 'Fairies - Find a Fairy Cards' to set up a trail of fairy-themed pictures or challenges around the garden or park.
Magical Movement: Use our 'Fairies - Activity/Movement Challenge Cards' to get children moving and acting like fairies—fluttering their wings, tiptoeing quietly, or dancing in a circle.
Creating a Fairy Garden: Find a small space to create a permanent fairy garden using a planter, some soil, small plants, and other natural items.
Art & Storytelling
Drawing a Fairy Home: Use the 'Fairies - Draw a Fairy Home' sheets to get children to think about what a fairy home would look like and draw it.
Writing a Fairy Story: Use our 'Fairies - Writing/Drawing/Mark Making Sheets' to encourage children to write or draw their own stories about fairies.
Mindful Colouring: Use our 'Fairies - Colouring Sheets (Mindfulness)' for a calm, creative activity.
Reading Fairy Tales: Read a traditional fairy tale, such as "Little Red Riding Hood" or "The Gingerbread Man," and discuss the magical elements in the story.
Literacy & Social Skills
Friendship Fairies: Use our 'Fairies - Friendship Fairy' award sheets to celebrate children who have shown kindness and friendship to others.
Fairy Puzzles: Use our 'Fairies - 2-Piece Puzzles' or the 'Fairies - Picture Snap' cards to develop concentration and matching skills.
Fairy Dice Game: Use the 'Fairies - Dice Game' for a fun, cooperative learning activity.
Explore More: To explore our extensive catalogue of resources on these themes, please visit our ‘Fairies’, ‘Traditional/Fairy Tales’, ‘Forest School’, ‘Gardening’, and ‘Spring’ pages.
These activities offer great inspiration for making International Fairy Day a memorable and impactful experience in your early years and Key Stage One setting, fostering imagination, creativity, and a lifelong love for nature and storytelling.

Have great fun with your children whilst all pretending to be fairies with this set of 6 Fairy Activity Challenge cards.
Perhaps children could stand in a circle around the pile of cards and take turns to pick one for everyone to do. Cards could equally be shrunk down and placed on a key ring to take out on adventures or featured on an indoor or outdoor display board and referred to with everyone carrying out the activity on floor space in front.
Once the children get to know the cards they will be able to relate the action to the picture without necessarily needing the card read to them...For example an adult may be able to simply hold up a card and everyone will be able to do the activity together!
Great for physical development, descriptive language, imagination, understanding the world and turn taking.

Fun scavenger hunt game for in or outdoors!
Fairy cards (Minibeast Fairy, Water Fairy, Tree Fairy, Fruit Fairy, Flower Fairy & Earth Fairy) are designed to be hidden for children to find.
You may like to simply encourage your children to search until they find all six fairies.
Alternatively (or after), for an additional challenge, you may like to draw children’s attention to the colours, shapes and numbers on each card. Why not challenge your children to find the card with a specific shape on it? We have also included sets of cards with the relevant numbers, shapes and colours on within the pack, in order that you may select a card to give you a particular child or they may self select a challenge for themselves. These cards are ideal for children who require picture aids for non-verbal communication.
The cards also allow plenty of opportunity for communication and language development and observation skills looking at the key similarities and differences between each fairy.

These Friendship Fairy sheets are designed for children to fill out and give to a friend when they recognise that their friend has said or done something special or ‘magic’! (For younger children you may like to encourage them to let you know when they think their friend has been extra kind, thoughtful or caring towards them in order for you to fill out the sheet for them.)
Award sheets can then be given to children for their ‘magic’ acts of friendship to take home and share with their families.
