Of course, we know going in that it's actually Tinker Bell's sister, Periwinkle, who lives in the Winter Woods, and when they finally meet, both their worlds change forever. The Winter Woods, where it stays winter year-round, is a world completely detached from Tinker Bell and her friends, and they are forbidden to go there because it's simply too cold for their wings, which can't be repaired if broken. Tinker Bell just knows that there's something drawing her into the Winter Woods, and she's determined to find out why her wings sparkled the day she helped Fawn bring the animals to the border for hibernation. In Secret of the Wings, we learn that winter is not really a season, but a place- completely separate from Pixie Hollow. If you've been following the Tinkerbell films, this installment is played out in winter - For reference, Tinker Bell was set in spring, Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure was set in fall, and Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue was set in summer. It's hard to believe that we're now onto the fourth Tinker Bell movie, Secret of the Wings. I remember a few years ago, when the first Tinkerbell movie debuted- we were both super excited that Tinker Bell was finally getting her chance to shine.

As I type this, she's in the next room gluing fairy wings on all of her Littlest Pet Shop pets. Having a young daughter who adores fairies will open you to a world full of pixie dust.

I'm no stranger to the Tinker Bell movies.
