I adore mermaids but I can honestly say that I am not one.. I know I am a faery - you can tell by the shoes I wear.Mermaids are water-dwelling females with long-hair. Woman to the waist and a fish tail below. She is musical. Often sings or plays the harp. They normally inhabits the sea, but may also be found in lakes, rivers, wells and other watery places. Mermaids may sometimes adopt land-dwelling children, making them their protector. Mermaids may also marry a land-dweller, or draw men to under the sea with them, either allowing them to live-in bliss or to be drowned, depending on her whim. Nixes are similar to mermaids, but are able to assume totally human form, but they always retain some mark of being non-human.
here are a few colouring pages to keep you busy
mermaid and sea-horse * two mermaids * dancing mermaid * moon mermaid 
She sells sea shells by the sea shore.
The shells she sells are surely seashells.
So if she sells shells on the seashore,
I'm sure she sells seashore shells.

Mermaid magic - just the thing to lighten up a dreary, dark,cold January! I will be printing the coloring pages as soon as I get some ink for my printer.
Have fun at the seaside. Wish I could go with you!
Love,

Robyn, I've learnt something new here..Id never heard of a nixe before and went to look them up...so thanks for that. I love the sea as you know...being a cancerian. I've been to the beach sevearl times this year and theres nothing like it to revitalise the spirit! enjoy!
where i live, which is about as far away as you can get from the sea in this country, there is a pool, about 3 miles away from me, called the the Mermaid pool. It's high up in the hills and is said to lure men to their deaths in the dark days of winter.
Have a wonderful time at the sea and come back to faeryland soon,it is such a magical place.
love

Robyn I love the seaside and I hope you find lots of treasures in the rock pools and along the beach,I wish we could have all been there with you ,what a party that would be!Lots of love Kathyann
I hope you had a wonderful time!
That's very weird - the picture of the two mermaids riding the sea horses are just like a scene that I describe in my children's book `The Island that Wasn't There'(Due out later this year!)
=^..^=
Hummmm.
I do love the seaside ... The tidepools best. I like the smooth rocks and tiny sea creatures. Seastars rock!
I tend to even collect shells in little niches here and there (most often near water in my cottage) ...
I have quite long hair (red) ... very long.
But I have always been told I was of the Fae and I do feel most at home in the woodlands ... Of course, I have had my many familars pointed out often as they are always at my side no matter where I turn ... Alas, more food for thought.
I am now more confused! ::sigh::
