Assemble a garden pond for your dolls!

        You can make a garden pond for your doll's outdoor pleasure using all kinds of things found in the garden already. 
       But, most important of all... you will need to borrow a pie tin from the kitchen for this fun activity. Additional supplies might be: stones of any color, sand, colorful marbles, moss and tiny figures of wildlife etc... Gather cut flowers to float inside your pond too. Also look for some plastic fish or turtles to display in the pond as well.
       I'm certain that little people attending our flower camp will be exchanging the things in the "pond" on a daily basis!
       If you use water in your doll's pond, make sure to change it out every morning or after play to prevent insect eggs from coming to life inside the standing water.  It usually takes at least 24 hours for mosquito eggs to hatch from a display like this.

Our daughter made this pond using glass marbles, sand, tiny toadstools she purchased from the
 local dollar store. There was hardly any room for water by the time she finished! She
 already had a rocky artificial structure for a pond to use so she stuck that one
 inside the pie plate. It has a "floaty" for a frog or doll to relax in
 and enjoy a time in the water and sun
