This
little bottled fairy represents a danger I see with our youth. I believe
our children have less imagination today than in the past. They spend
too much time in front of computer games and the TV. They need to get
outside more ... climb trees, to build forts, and to hunt for fairy
rings. Too much time is spent
on the information highway.
My little fairy can still breath. Air can still get inside her bottle.
Imagination is not yet dead just endangered ... but the bottle could
easily be plugged up. If we are not careful that could happen to our
children's innocent ability to imagine all sorts of marvelous make-believe
things. Like other endangered species, it is
our responsibility to see that imagination survives to the next generation.
The
triangular jar is about 9 inches tall and 4 inches wide. The fairy is
4 inches tall.
