The Enchanted Woodland Walk is open at the Chattahoochee Nature Center through February 29. The following is a sample of the buildings that are tucked away along the trail. My favorite structures are those built from natural materials. I can just imagine small woodland creatures exploring this community of buildings.

Such an engaging family project that teaches engineering concepts and skills, as well as fostering creativity and problem solving. Take this project through the Design Process – Identify the Problem, Research, Brainstorm (Imagine), Design, Build (Redesign), and Share. Building a fairy community would also be a fun project-based learning experience to enhance a fairy or folk tale unit.

Go here to see last year’s fairy buildings and for some literature connections.
