National Tell a Fairy Tale Day

Gather round the fire, and make yourselves comfortable… Tell A Fairy Tale Day is all about exploring myths and stories, old and new. From grim(m) tales to urban legends, tap the dark corners of your subconscious and see what you find…

History of Tell A Fairy Tale Day

The sharing of magical, otherworldly stories is a tale as old as time. While the term ‘fairy tale’ was coined in 1697 by Madame d’Aulnoy (conte de fées in her native French), it’s likely that some fairy tales originated as early as the bronze age over 6,000 years ago. And for most of history, fairy tales have been passed on not in written form but via the oral tradition, with each generation telling and dramatizing stories to the next.

The fairy tale’s ancient roots can be traced all over the world, from Vikram-Betaal in India and Aesop’s Fables in Ancient Greece to Arabian Nights in the Middle East. It was during the late 17th to 19th centuries that fairy tale collectors emerged, most famously Charles Perrault and the Brothers Grimm. While the Brothers Grimm aimed to preserve folktales in their pure form, documenting them in the way they were told by rural peasants unable to read or write, Perrault and others reworked fairy tales for literary and artistic effect, with some writers such as Hans Christian Andersen dreaming up their own new stories.

As the fairy tale’s history emerges into the modern day, it’s clear that the genre is still as popular as ever – look no further than the success of Disney movies to see how these stories continue to capture our hearts and imaginations. In fact, the famous Disney castle is inspired by Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany, built by none other than the Märchenkönig (fairy-tale king), Ludwig II of Bavaria, himself. Perched on a rocky hill and with horse-drawn carriage rides up to the front door, Neuschwanstein and its elaborate interior abound in myths and legends – the castle is even home to an artificial grotto!

By celebrating Tell A Fairy Tale Day, you’ll be continuing the magical tradition that has ensured fairy tales are still very much part of our lives to this day.

How fairy tales change over time

Perhaps one of the most interesting aspects of fairy tales is how they change over time. Simple plot structures, motifs and archetypal characters recurring across many cultures make these stories rife for adaptation and reinterpretation.

Although nowadays we usually associate fairy tales with children’s literature, you may be surprised to learn that many of today’s beloved stories have rather dark and disturbing origins. Imagine a world in which no woodcutter comes to save Little Red Riding Hood from the wolf’s belly, or in which one of the ugly stepsisters cuts off her own toes so that her foot fits in the slipper! From the 18th century onwards, many fairy tales were toned down and reworked so that they were more suitable for children.

These stories and the genre itself have also been adapted and reinvented for different time periods and cultures. Alongside original modern-day fairy tales, there are also various retellings, for example in urban settings or different countries. One particularly common type of retelling comes from women writers. Authors such as Angela Carter and Margaret Atwood have taken what are often seen as outdated tropes about women and reinvented them – the damsel in distress becomes the plucky heroine, and the trapped bride leaves her ogre husband for her happily ever after.

Why fairy tales are important

As it is often claimed Albert Einstein once said, “If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.” We might not expect such high praise for fairy tales from a world-famous theoretical physicist, but Einstein recognized the importance of the imagination. Fairy tales are incredibly valuable for both children and adults when it comes to learning about the world in which we live and developing our capacity for creativity. Fairy tales have also been considered fertile ground by psychoanalysts. With their twists and turns, age-old themes and familiar characters, our favorite stories may reveal not only the workings of our personal subconscious but also the fundamental elements of our collective psyche.

How to celebrate Tell A Fairy Tale Day

It should be clear by now that, when it comes to celebrating Tell A Fairy Tale Day, you really can let your imagination run wild! And while it’s a day that kids will love, it’s also a great occasion for adults too.

Gather your friends and family and take it in turns to share your favorite stories with one another. Time to brush up on your acting skills, as the more dramatic enactments the better – whether you’re good at impersonating a wicked witch or excel at acting out the characters’ quest through the enchanted forest, you’ll want to really make the tale come to life for your audience. And why not sit around a bonfire toasting marshmallows or string up some fairy lights in your living room to add to the atmosphere?

Alongside sharing the stories we know and love, fairy tales are the perfect genre for getting creative and honing your writing skills. Take a well-known story and tweak it to fit a different time or setting, or have a crack at inventing your own. It may well start with ‘Once upon a time’, but it’s completely up to you whether there’s a ‘Happily ever after’! Many libraries and literary organizations will also share stories and creative resources and even hold events to help mark the occasion.

If writing’s not your thing, then there are plenty of films and programs based on fairy tales for you to enjoy. Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, Cinderella and The Little Mermaid are just some examples of the media giant’s adaptations, while movies and TV series such as Into the Woods and Tell Me a Story interweave and retell various classic fairy tales for new audiences.

And if you feel like going all out, why not host a fairy tale themed party? Encourage your guests to come in fancy dress, put on an enchanted feast of yummy snacks such as gingerbread houses and toadstool cupcakes, and throw some legendary party games like hunt the pea and castle building.

However you choose to celebrate Tell A Fairy Tale Day, it’s sure to be a magical occasion!

TRANSFER NEWS: Mason Mount personal terms agreed?

Chelsea's squad depth is abyss levels of deep so it's no surprise that they will likely want to shift half a dozen players. Mason Mount was one of those and, given their need, it seemed Liverpool would be the most probable destination.

Perhaps not. Reports from The Telegraph newspaper last night suggest that Manchester United and Mason Mount have agreed personal terms, and a transfer fee is the next step between United and Chelsea.

3 goals and 6 assists for Mount in 35 appearances isn't the best form, but this is in a scuffed Chelsea side that has utilised the midfielder intermittently. Compare that with the previous season's 13 goals, 16 assists in 53 games and you see the player that is actually there - someone aspiring to be the next Frank Lampard.

Mount probably wouldn't be my first choice of midfield signing, but he has got an engine to him - like Bruno, like Fred. He can play most attacking and central midfield positions so he's flexible, and he provides goals and assists, something all teams like.

There's no doubting Christian Eriksen's commitment, and he registered the 4th highest average distance ran in the English Premier League last season, but the Dane is in his early 30s, not known for his pace, and has a cardiac device fitted to protect his heart from arrythmia. He is a risk and we should not be pushing him as hard. A player like Mount is a suitable addition to allow more recovery time without losing out on playstyle. Fred and McTominay can't offer that, and Sabitzer's too great an injury risk. Beyond that, either of Mount/Eriksen as a sub is helpful. That's talent in depth. That's how you win trophies.

The big issue will be the fee for Mount. Chelsea want rid of him but there's talk of £70m. That's a joke fee. Anything over £40m is a pisstake, though an initial fee plus addons... less offensive.

Regardless, it's promising to see that United are hitting the market early - ahead of the summer USA tour. Perhaps more will join soon too...

Favorite couple that have solid relationships

Red and Kitty Forman, That 70’s Show

These two have the most solid relationship ever. They love each other so much it’s ridiculous. They just know each other so well that they’re just kind of like, there they go again, being themselves. Whatever. And they still have a great sex life.

Lily and Marshall, How I Met Your Mother

They are the absolute cutest and I love them so much. They take such good care of each other, and it’s like their flaws fit so well, they really just complement each other without letting the other get away with their respective bullshit.

Pacha and Chicha, The Emperor’s New Groove

Her husband comes home with a talking llama claiming to be the Emperor, then leaves her and the kids in charge of handling the woman who is Scary Beyond All Reason, and she handles it like a champ, with the help of her two children whom they have parented very well. If that’s not relationship goals I don’t know what is.

Tenzin and Pema, The Legend of Korra

Pema is exactly who Tenzin needs, and he is who she needs. Pema is the one who talks sense into Tenzin when he’s confused, and brings him back to reality. He is a loving and devoted husband who respects his wife enough to listen to her, and trusts her advice. They trust each other so much, even when they are apart.

Gilbert and Anne, Anne of Green Gables

Just them. ‘Nuff said.
