“A Little Lair” Captures Imaginations

Invite a little magic into your customers’ lives by showing them an intriguing bit of wall décor that comes with a book to help them welcome a fairy, elf or gnome into their homes. Fantasy takes us where we might not otherwise go. Kids love fantasy and will thrill to the opportunity when they get A Little Lair. Each of these “lairs” is a whimsical door that is accompanied by a read-along page book that explores the many ways to make magic happen. Mac, an elf, introduces himself and guides kids and their families on the journey, explaining how, by placing a Lair on the wall, the little people can enter, making good dreams happen and diminishing night terrors.

The thirty-two page book was written by Megan Ward, a former school teacher, and lavishly illustrated by Nicholas Jackson, a fresh talent in the art world, whose work has been featured in publications including National Geographic, Sullivan Learning Systems and Learning A-Z.

Megan Ward and her sister, Erin McGinley, both mothers of young children, developed the Little Lair concept when Megan was putting away her holiday decorations and wishing there was a way to keep the holiday magic alive year ‘round. The book and door combo is the way into the magical world of little people and allows the recipient to decide how often they want to let the magic happen. It’s entirely up to the younger set, some who want to spend time with an enchanted visitor every night and others who prefer only an occasional visit. Once the door is on the wall and a child invites the spirits in, anyone could enter: it could be the tooth fairy, a leprechaun or another visitor from the world of dreams.

The Fairy, Elf and Gnome door, available in pink, blue or red, can be attached to any wall space with removable adhesive strips (not sold with the product.), or placed on a shelf. Each door has a high-quality finish so it will look fresh and new for many years of magic. For families who want more than one door, offer the Family Set that includes any two doors and the books so that several youngsters can each welcome their personal visitor from the world of elves and gnomes.

Families can accessorize their Lair doors with wee rope ladders to help visitors from other places get in and out with ease. Other ideas and many creative downloads are available on the company’s blogspot, full of ways to bring fairy land into the homes of little ones. The story, explaining how to release the special magic, deserves reading over and over to make the most of what can bring delight and entertainment to young believers.
