Honeybee the duck and I would like to welcome you to a very merry Fairy Wren Cottage Christmas. Our take on this seasonal celebration might be very different to the traditional, but times have changed since our own childhoods. Some aspects still look very familiar, there is a Christmas tree, presents, wrapping, spending time together, playing games, eating a lovely meal, seasonal fruits take centre stage, and of course playing in the sprinkler when it gets too hot – Honeybee does join us with that one!
