The special thing about this trail is that kids from all over the neighbourhood have made fairy houses and distributed them in tree branches and the wooded area to help bring some magic to this stressful and challenging time.
Today we explored the trail together and Molly added her own house to the collection of Fairy Magic along this short urban trail in the west end of Toronto.

This is an easy trail that is off of Pasadena Gardens, just outside of the more crowded ravine adjacent paved path. You could probably even take a large wheeled stroller on this path if you wanted to. We walked the short trail about 2.5 times while looking for fairy homes, giving us a half hour walk on the trail.
The kids followed all of our rules to keep safe and germ free 1) No touching any of the fairy homes (even if the wind had knocked them over) and 2) if you pass anyone on the trail move over to one side to give them plenty of room to get by. We only saw three other families on the trail at the same time as us and everyone was behaving as they should keeping a wide distance, save for one family who decided to let their dogs off leash.
Molly brought and hung her own fairy home in a tree for other people to spot and enjoy on the trail. Spring is officially here as purple flowers had begun to pop up along the trail. We will be back in a couple of weeks to explore more, see how many other fairy homes have been added, and to add another home to the collection. Today we counted more than 40 fairy homes!
