Winter 2017 Advent Calendar

Now that Thanksgiving is over, it's time to get ready for Christmas. Here's an advent calendar craft.

What you'll need:

  • Poster board 
  • Construction paper
  • Tape
  • Glue
  • Marker
Steps:

  1. Cut approximately 3 by 4  inch squares out of the construction paper. The calendar in the picture has 31 squares but you can just do 24. 
  2. Fold 2 inches of the square up. Tape the sides to secure them.
  3. Write the numbers on the pockets
  4. Glue the pockets to the poster board  
Now, it's time to add stuff to the pockets. I have a special gift for your calendar; 24 badges!

 
You can also add slips of fun activities to do each day. You can even add candy!

 Well, that's all folks! The next post will be next week!

Snowflake's Pixie Postings-March 2019

Before I proceed with this thing, I have an announcement to make! At around the dawn of the new year, I posted that I'd no longer be doing event posts here, only monthly horoscopes. So for the second half of 2017 and all of 2018, I did event related posts here in an inconsistent pattern, but for a few months I posted every week.

But I realized that life needs more excitement and festivity. I've loved holidays as a child, and I still celebrate most of them even as a teenager. But some have faded away from excitement like Valentine's Day. At school I've overheard a few people complaining about how many holidays aren't as fun anymore. This got me thinking on how to bring them back. I started my event blog in the first place to bring back the joy of Pixie Hollow's events, because they used to be the highl

  The holiday season has begun with November! Events Week 1-The Pixie Hollow Games -Inspired by the mainland Olympics, the Pixie Hollow Games is held every four years. Each year, two members from each talent (not all participate every year) represent their guild in a series of events. The last place team after each event is eliminated. The overall standings are determined by a butterfly leaderboard.  Here are some of the sports: Leapfrogging-Fairies race on frogs that leap over each other Dragonfly water skiing-The team that makes it the fastest around a series of obstacles in the water wins Twig Spheres-One teammate is on top of the sphere moving it while the other is inside guiding the one on top. Teams race to make it to the middle and back first. Mouse polo-It's basically like mainland lacrosse but on mice. Two teams compete at a time and the judging is tournament style. Teacup Challenge-It's a high speed race inside clumsy teacups

Monthly Horoscope March 2020

Hi! Sorry I'm so behind on my monthly! Things have been crazy! Aries-Not too much will happen this month, but there will be an emphases on practicality, caution and long term goals. It’s a good time to focus on these things. You may also experience a powerful new beginning. Taurus-Be careful when dealing with authority and long term goals for the first part of the month as there may be communication issues. Fortunately, communication should be stronger later and things should be harmonious for most of this month. Others should be attracted to you. Action should be used for your benefit. The earlier part of the month is also a great time for learning new things. Gemini-The earlier part of this month will be okay for learning but better for not publishing discoveries. Eventually, the imagination from last month should return. You may even find a new social group. Cancer-The Mercury retrograde issues will continue taking place. You may encounter blockages when doing research.
