Grow and Care for Your Own Magical Fairy Garden with PlayMonster's Tree Hollow

Lily: I gifted this for my 4 year old niece and she loved it. After the plants died she still enjoyed it. Definitely worth the money!

YanaZ: Overall i think it's a very nice experience that definitely has added value. The idea works - the plant grew really fast and big. It was relatively easy to assemble and my 4 year old enjoyed the process. She and her sister loved playing with the fairy, though it can be a little messy if you play with it in the garden itself.
She lost interest when the plant was fully grown and it died eventually but I do like the idea and happy we had this experience.

DrbanakinsDrbanakins: I agree with some of the other reviews, there are some design flaws. When you set it up, put a mat under because some water and dirt will seep through the middle. The fairy arms also fall off very easily (but you can also easily pop them back in). And I don’t see how you could plant in the bottom because it’s shallow. But that wasn’t a problem because we collected rocks to put down there and my kid enjoyed that!
All that being said, my 5 year old kid LOVES this set! She checks and water her fairy garden every day and loves visiting Willow, the fairy. Also, we don’t have green thumbs at all, and this pic shows what our garden looks like after a week. My kid and I are thrilled with the results and will be buying more sets from this company! A great project that teaches them about maintaining a garden and caring for plants, while also growing her imagination with playing with her fairy friend.

jkrider01jkrider01: This ended up being pretty awesome after buying it on a whim on sale. I gave it to my flower enthusiast 3yo for Christmas and she spend the next six weeks playing with all the pieces and NOT wanting help, lol. Amazingly, nothing critical got lost and she managed to put it together herself when she was finally ready to plant seeds (For safekeeping, I had snagged the dirt and seeds on day one, obviously). It has a bridge that I think is designed to go between this set and other fairy garden sets, and a fairy that is attached by a wire and appears to be “flying” over the garden. Both are charming to my kid, but kind of annoying to me because they make it harder to move around. The bridge does not seem to attach anywhere, and takes up precious windowsill space, and the fairy has hit me in the face a couple times when I was trying to check on the sprouts. Haha. Kid loves them both 🤷🏼‍♀️
I helped her put the dirt in each of three sections, and then divided up all the seeds between them. She waters them daily and they all seem to have sprouted! Would buy again... unless I could find a non-plastic version. Great gift!

Stacy S.Stacy S.: If you are looking for a gift for a little girl that isn’t just another toy this is a fantastic option. You’ll make the kido happy and the parents will be elated it’s not another toy with loud sounds or a bunch of tiny pieces that their kids will use to construct an accessory minefield across the living room floor with the purpose of inflicting horrific pain in the feet of their parental units.

As far as my personal experience with this goes I can say that my 5 year old loves it and has enjoyed planting and caring for her little fairy garden. I like that she has something to care for and be responsible for that she can see the fruit of her labor. The little kit has seeds and instructions that are easy to follow and quick to setup. She did it with my help and even with minimal winter sunlight we have see quick growth. We planted these on Christmas Day and this is a few days after planting them! Crazy fast growth. Now we are almost 4 weeks out from when they were originally planted and they are still doing great. We’ve had a few times where the soil got dry and they wilted but within a day of watering they perked right back up, so they must be good seeds and soil....
