Fairy House Day returns to Mount Pleasant Palmetto Islands County Park on Saturday, Jan. 18th. Kids of all ages are invited to join Charleston County Parks for the greatest, tiniest building project ever.
Two time slots will be available for registration: from 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. and from 12 – 2 p.m. Space is limited and the event is expected to sell out. Advance registration is required and on-site registration will not be available.
“Fairy houses” and gnome houses are made from non-living, natural items such as twigs and leaves, and the fairies and gnomes of Palmetto Islands County Park need help to build new abodes this winter. Fairy House Day celebrates fairies, gnomes, nature discovery, creative expression, and family fun.
Event highlights include the chance to build a fairy house, plus story time hosted by the Charleston County Public Library, a kids’ nature craft, face painting, and live music from The V-Tones. A “real” fairy will also be on site for photos! Children are encouraged to come dressed as a fairy or gnome for extra fun. Food truck fare will be available for purchase on site. Fairy Hair will also be available for an additional fee.
Registration is $7 per person and is available at CharlestonCountyParks.com; registration includes park admission fee. All family members must register in order to attend, and a chaperone is required to remain on site with children. Pets are permitted, but must remain on a leash. Accessible parking, restrooms, picnic tables and sensory bags will be available on site.
