In reply to Tif. Thanks Tif! Another favourite villain is Quilp from Charles Dickens' Olde Curiosity Shoppe. I wouldn't recommend that for kids under 13, though. Do you still have the Fairy Tale Challenge? I just noticed it on your site. Looks like fun!

I absolutely adore this post!!!! Nothing beats the classic fairy tale villians, though there are many that come close. You’ve got me thinking now which one would be my favorites!

Thanks Rachelle. That’s a pretty sophisticated kind of conversation to be having with a 3 year old, I’m impressed! Just hopped on to TinkerLab. I really like your creative projects! I will definitely be visiting regularly for some inspiration.

What a fun post! My 3 year old and I like to talk about how every good story has a “problem” that needs to be resolved, and the villan is often at the heart of the matter. Ruth, thanks for doing all this research and pulling all these dark characters out of the woodwork for us to enjoy (and hate).
