DreamWorks Animation and KidsGardening are launching Gabby’s Dollhouse Fairylandia Tour, a three-month program intertwining the wonder of the new Fairylandia setting featured in the hit Netflix series and the hands-on enrichment opportunities found at botanical gardens across the country. Gabby is stepping out of her dollhouse, and into the great outdoors!
With a mission to help young minds grow and inspire natural curiosity, the Gabby’s Dollhouse Fairylandia activations will offer character meet and greets with Gabby* in her all-new, Fairylandia-themed attire and garden-themed craft activities at each tour stop. Featured crafts include a sunflower seed planting activity, and each child will be gifted an activity booklet including temporary tattoos, watercolor sheet, and button to commemorate their visit. The partnership kicks off at Dallas Arboretum on April 11, and will traverse 12 cities from April to June, each featuring a two-day stop.
*Gabby meet and greets to feature costume character
Sign up for your meet and greet with Gabby and enjoy a craft on gardening!
