Fairy fun for ages 4+: Delightful screen-free entertainment for
fairy lovers everywhere
Discover enchanting fairies from all around the world with this
stunningly illustrated matching game.
Based on the popular book from the Folklore Field Guides series A
Natural History of Fairies, the cards feature naturalist illustrations
of fairy species from different regions of the world, from the Alpine
Sprite to the Savannah Fairy, and the Rainforest Nymph to the Polar
Wanderer.
The booklet, in addition to explaining how to play the game, serves as a
field guide to the fairy species on the cards, with details on their
habitats, dwellings, distinctive features and habits. For instance,
learn how the Firefly Sprite (Nympha scintilla) uses bioluminescence
to make their way through the bamboo forests of China and how the
Himalayan Oread (Nympha nipalensis) hibernates in a snowy burrow
through the winter, but descends to mountain meadows to feed on flower
nectar in the summer. You'll also find out where and when to look for
fairies, and signs of their presence.
To play the game, arrange the cards face down on a table, then flip two
over - do they show the same fairy species? If they do, you collect the
pair. If not, try to remember where the different fairy species are
located so you can make a match on your next turn.
Put your memory skills to the test and learn about the diverse fairies
of the world while you play. Gather more pairs than your opponent to
win!
The Folklore Field Guides series is a charming collection of
beautifully illustrated handbooks on topics of lore and legend.
Fascinating facts are accompanied by breathtaking illustrations, all
presented in an engaging narrative form.
Also available from the series: A Natural History of Fairies, A
Natural History of Magical Beasts, A Natural History of Mermaids and
A Natural History of Magick.
