Of course fairies exist. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. They must exist because there is a World Fairy Day. It’s on June the 24th. This is the official day for us to celebrate the little fairies that bring some magic to our lives. We can also celebrate the big fairies too. Fairy lovers around the world renew their love of these mythical beings. There are hundreds of blogs on fairies that people can leave messages on. The official Fairy Day website says: “This holiday is for everyone who believes in the magic of fairytales. It is for those imaginative souls who dare to dream impossible dreams. It is for the children of the world, who are wide-eyed and open to the magic that surrounds them.” This day is a good day to re-live your childhood.

Fairies are mythical and legendary creatures who fill children’s story books. They are usually cute, winged, small, girl-like figures who can fly. They often help small children and can even do magic. One of the most famous fairies is Tinkerbell in J.M. Barrie’s ‘Peter Pan’. Nobody knows where fairies come from. Some believe they are a forgotten race, hiding in the trees at the end of our gardens. One popular belief in Ireland, where fairies are everywhere, is that they are really dead people who have come back to Earth to protect us. Another theory is that fairies are really “fallen” angels who did not behave well enough to stay in heaven. Wherever they came from or whoever they are, make sure you are nice to them on June 24.
