My daughter took a fairy art class today. I guess the teacher told them if they hang up their pictures that fairies will come visit. Now my daughter thinks fairies are going to show up tonight. I want to play along but want to leave her something to show the fairies came. What can I do, other than sprinkle glitter/fairy dust, all over her bedroom. I have quite a bit of craft supplies. I am not able to get to the store without children tonight. Any ideas???

Thanks!
PS I will be thanking this teacher personally :-)--lol

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank you so much for all the WONDERFUL ideas!!! I went with Cheerful M's suggestion-that was the stuf I had in the house. I wish i could post pictures on here, because it turned out so cute, and my daughter is sooooo excited this morning.
I made a box (i had a red sparkly box from some old jewelry) I made a little wand out of a toothpick and star shaped paper. In the box, i wrote a note " a lucky penny for you" and put a super shiny penny in it.
Thanks again for all the ideas--you mommas are great!

Maybe you could sprinkle glitter/fairy dust in her room then leave a jar of it and a note for her from the fairies. And if you have the stuff maybe some kind of 'gift' from them.

Fairy footprints in the fairy dust?
Maybe leave behind a tiny wand or something?

I would make a little glitter trail from the window. You could make a very tiny wand out of a toothpick with a star on the end.

You could also make a very tiny present and put a quarter in it or something. How fun! I wish we had fairies in our house!

How about doing the fairy dust and then leaving her a little paper flower?

My 2nd grade teacher used to have a "ghost" in the wall of our classroom. "Herbie" would leave us messages on a dry erase board, sometimes leave footprints, and move our furniture/books around.
~~~~~
Or maybe a fairy could leave a bunch of clues to a scavenger hunt around the house to find something silly. You could glitter up the heck out of the messages.
~~~~~
Or maybe make up some "fairy snacks." Tiny little cookies or something.
~~~~~
Better than cleaning up glitter from the house...sprinkle your snowy front yard with it...Or make a snow fairy or something in the snow for her to find in the morning.
~~~~~~
Also...sneak in some fairy messages into her backpack or lunch...again all glittered and prettied up.
~~~~~~
Maybe a "fairy garden" could be made with your daughter. You both could craft a little diorama using foil, glitter, plastic stones, silk flowers, ribbon...to invite the fairies...
