What makes a fairy tell is the same generic story such as a villian and a hero and mystic creatures that are in it to make up the fairy tale aspect of it

Ryan Morgan

A fairy tale I would say is something fake and a lot of stuff going on

Fantasy is what makes a fairy tale a fairy tale. At the end of fairy tales everyone lives happily ever after. I think that fairy tales are still relevant today, in some cases.

Ryan Morgan

Yes

Tyler Hilton

I think that a fairy tale is a story with mystical characteristics but the characters usually still have human like emotions so the audience has something to relate too.

Michael Petroni

Yes, that is very true.

Raven

I agree

What makes it a fairy tale is when something mystical happens. Whether it’s with princesses or monsters. Most the things that happen in fairy tales wouldn’t happen in real life. Yes they are relevant today because fairy tales are still being made.

Mason Lamont

Yes princesses and monsters are important.

I feel like a fairy tale is a fairy tale when it is beyond what could ever be reality. These types of worlds have heroes as well as dragons and other beasts that could only be imagined. Though fairy tales are old, they still hold just as much relevance as they had hundreds of years prior.

How do you think fairy tales were thought of?

I think what makes a fairytale is when shrek is in the story. Fairytales end with happy endings. Always gotta have a villain that gets caught. Always has a hero. They are still relevant.

Mason LaMont

3/3/2022 12:27:22 pm

Yes shrek is the best fairy tale.

Garrett Rich

3/3/2022 12:29:00 pm

I love shrek

A fairy tale is an old wise tale that is usually told to kids to learn a lesson. Happy endings. Love. Yes they are still relevant today.

Fairy tales show love and mental animation, doesn't always have to be cartoons to say. But can be actors with a very bright animated story line for love.

Garrett Rich

A fairy tale requires a happy ending and a tragic problem. Yes they are relevent today they still teach important lessons.

Eliza Fisher

That is true.

I think that a fairy tale is a story that is too good to be true. They also have unrealistic aspects to them.

Raven

3/3/2022 12:34:38 pm

A fairy tale is usually a made up story that usually involves love or a happy ending. They sometimes have mythical creatures.

Eliza Fisher

I agree with you.
