Flower Fairy Camp
This summer, come away with the fairies.
Flower Fairy Camp is infused with magic, stories, and creative projects to ignite your child’s imagination.
Flower Fairy Camp will deepen your child’s connection to the Fairy Way which involves:
Seeing the magic everywhere by recognizing the beauty and wonder of the natural world
Taking care of the Earth, each other, and ourselves
Practicing everyday acts of kindness & gratitude
Expressing and celebrating our unique sparkle
There will be lots of time for free, imaginative play and exploration.
Flower Fairy Camp is held at my home - called the Red Nest - in the neighbourhood of Renfrew in Calgary.
There is a maximum of six children at the camp.
A Love Note
“My daughters absolutely LOVED Flower Fairy Camp. Every detail was evident from the moment the camp began. Every craft was curated with love and made with gorgeous natural ingredients. Shelagh's energy and creative touches are the most thoughtful I have experienced in a children's program over the last 7 years raising my children. Both girls came home bubbling with excitement every day after camp, sharing details they had learned about nature and caring for the environment. The hardest part about Flower Fairy Camp was that it had to come to an end.”
-Pippa Blair, Co-founder Routine Beauty

Meet Shelagh,
Flower Fairy Godmother
Welcome Fairy Friends! Thank you for stopping by.
I have been offering Fairy Camps, both in-person and online, for the past three years. I love that I get to do this in my life!
Through my fairy camps and after-school program, I have seen first hand how meaningful it is for children to connect to fairies.
I’ve been an educator for over 25 years.
I also come from a long line of fairy believers. My Irish great-grandmother believed in fairies and so do I.
I hope you’ll join me and say yes to fairies!
A Love Note
“The moment I heard about Flower Fairy Camp I was all in! My daughter experienced the magic of Shelagh and her offering from the moment we said yes with a thoughtful and beautiful letter welcoming Chloe. The moment she opened the front gate to the garden she stepped into a magical fairytale. Shelagh is a beautiful being and she offered beauty and magic at every turn. The food, the art work, the treasures; all consciously chosen with Mother Earth and the children first and foremost. My daughter came home with a full heart and so many stories to share from her day. The hand crafted treasures from the week are now sprinkled throughout our home and garden as cherished memories. Give your children this gift, they won’t forget a week with the fairy godmother Shelagh.

More love for fairy camp

Thank you so much Shelagh for bringing the fae magic into our lives! My daughter enjoyed this Winter Fairy camp so much she can't wait to return in the summer. She was absolutely enchanted by the letters from the fairies, the crafts and building the fairy homes. She came home excited to teach me all of the fairy yoga poses she learned. We can't wait for the next one!

My daughter, 5 years old, adored winter fairy camp. She came home each day and kept right on going in fairy mode with craft ideas and make-believe play flowing freely. She was giddy with excitement when she showed me the fairy houses they created and the evidence that the fairies had visited. We both look forward to the next fairy camp opportunity!

My daughter had the most wonderful time at Fairy camp! She loved going every single day and didn’t want it to end. There was so much magic and wonder that her little imagination just exploded. I would highly recommend this camp to anyone with a child who loves to use her imagination and creativity. The crafts were all so thoughtful and beautiful. They aren’t the typical crafts that come home from camps. We will have them for a very long time.
