About Pixies

A pixie, or pixy, is said to be a fairy or an elf. Everybody knows that both of those are mischievous sprites.

According to folklore, pixies originated in England.

They are good looking little people with pointed ears.

This is an artistic pixie, painting nature to while away some time.

Pixies are commonly seen in green outfits with a pointed hat.

They don't have wings like fairies do, so they can't fly but they skip and flit about quickly.

They love to dance in the shadows and ride on insects.

Pixies are said to leave a pixie dust in their wake.

In the drawing below, can you see the dust falling to the ground? When he jumps down, he'll no doubt leave footprints behind.

And pixies can lead you astray so never follow one even if they beckon you!

If you do follow one and you do get lost, turn a piece of your clothing inside out and that will break the spell.

Like fairies, pixies can perform good or bad deeds.

If you are worried about upsetting them you can leave out small bowls of milk to gain their respect. (and stay in their good books!)

This pixie looks big compared to the mushroom.

Oops, maybe I've made a mistake there. The pixie would really be leaning on the trunk of the mushroom if I was to portray him correctly.

Let's pretend it's a very small mushroom!
