  1. I’ve always loved combining toys with storybooks. Love the Fairy Tale ideas you have here. BTW, did you know that the “Puff the Magic Dragon” song was originally written by Peter Yarrow of the folk singing group ‘Peter, Paul and Mary’ and is over 50 years old? And still popular with children (and their parents AND grandparents) today!

    • Yes, Elf, I do know that, but I very much appreciate you sharing it here. Some of our readers may not know the origin of the song and dragon. I grew up hearing and loving that song. I think it is the main reason I love Peter, Paul & Mary so much, although the do have a lot of great songs.
