Though MANY more plants and fairies are mentioned in the books, the 13 books mainly feature…

Chickweed, violet, lemon balm, plantain, chamomile, calendula, marshmallow, burdock, elder, pine, rose, cinnamon and finally, dandelion.

These are not only fun and kid friendly herbs to learn about, but are also the most used herbs for children’s herbal remedies. In other words, you and your kids will be learning the most important children’s remedy herbs throughout the adventure.

You will not only know all about the plants, you’ll know how to use them for remedies if your child needs simple care for those everyday first aid situations. So, they are learning about the plants and YOU are learning how to use those very same plants to help them.

These books are targeted to children between the ages of 5 and 12, but like most good stories, they can be enjoyed at any age. In a survey we gave to Herb Fairies owners, 60% were purchased for kids 5 to 12, 20% bought it read to kids under 5, and 20% were adults buying it for themselves.

Herb Fairies includes audio books. And, of course, you can read to your kids. So, even younger is fine. Many parents have told us they used the books and audio books together to help their kids learn to read.

Because of the extra features, it works for a wide variety of ages. My four year old liked the pictures and coloring pages, my 9/10 year old LOVED the books, and my 11/12 year old could still dig into meatier information in the activity books…when some of the other components of the program seems beneath his grown-up-ness. :-)

Boys LOVE Herb Fairies. Here are a few testimonials from book club members…

I have a 5 year old girl and a 13 year old boy, and the Herb Fairies materials are broad enough to capture both of their imaginations. My daughter is enraptured by the stories, and identifies with all of the characters. My son enjoys learning about how the herbs can be used in culinary and medicinal preparations. These books have been a means through which both of my kids have been able to connect more deeply and meaningfully with nature. These materials are highly, highly recommended.

Some families dig in and complete the entire learning system and go back to it year after year. Other families simply read the books. Most families, however, will read the books and work on what inspires them. A recipe here, some journal pages and activities there… maybe listen to the audiobooks as well.

We actually designed Herb Fairies for parents JUST like you. The idea is to learn and experience the magic of herbs with your kids. It’s actually more fun to learn this way. We include a private Facebook support group for parents, as well as The Herb Fairies Parent Guide.

Over the years, we’ve heard from lots of adults who purchased Herb Fairies for themselves. They find it to be the simple solution they’ve been looking for. Others have purchased it to use with their grandkids, nieces, nephews, outdoor programs, classrooms, or even their friend’s kids.

The Herb Fairies box set is very heavy, thus postage is very expensive to ship outside the U.S.
