Monthly Competition: Magical Nature Potions

We were absolutely blown away by the creativity, care and imagination that poured into our 'Tusk Titans' issue's Magical Nature Potions competition! From glowing flower brews and shapeshifting elixirs to potions that whisper with trees or help save endangered animals, your ideas were bursting with wild wonder. We received a record-breaking number of entries from across the UK and beyond, and every single one made us proud to have such inspiring, nature-loving readers. 

Congrats to our four winners!

Henry, age 8, South Cave – Animal Whisperer Potion 3000

Lucy, age 11, Poulton – Nature's Herbal Honey

Mira, age 10, Derry – Grow Potion

Esme, age 9, Oxford – Avian Avatar

 

More enchanting entries... Too magical not to share!

Theo, age 9, Aberystwyth – Lambspeak Potion

After reading this month's magazine my 9 year old son, Theo, was inspired to make this potion that allows a person to communicate with the lambs that surround our home. He calls it lambspeak, and it has spring flowers and a touch of sheep's wool in it.

Alice, age 8, Picklescot – Fantastic Forrest Potion

My potion is called Fantastic Forest. It is inspired by the beauty of the newly planted forest in the fields outside our village. The forest looks like small branches sticking out of the ground right now but in the future there will be a lot of towering trees making shadows for small animals to live in. My potion is to make sure that all the trees grow peacefully and happily and make lots of homes for animals. Make sure you use a REAL four leaf clover for the magic to work.

Isla, age 7, Cullompton – Talk to Plants Potion

Kaia, age 8, Whitland – Butterfly Understanding Potion

Lainee, age 10, Aviemore – Magic Nature Potions

Ellis, age 7, Storrington – My Magical Spring Potion

Seren, age 12, Powys

Romilly, age 8, Sevenoaks

Alphin, age 11, Hatfield 

Alys, age 12, Swindon

My potion is called Animalentaria and it makes you able to transform into any animal and  you can also speak that animal's language (but be careful when choosing a prey animal that you don't get eaten!)

I thought it would be amazing to truly learn the secrets of the wild and finally  understand animal behaviour.

Flora, age 9, Bath – Ye Olde Potion To Hear the Whisper of the Trees

Freya, age 8, Taverham – Disappearing Rubish

You've been designing brilliant new contenders for the Astonishing Amazon Animal Showdown – piranhas with jaws that regrow in whole quarters, a hoatzin that ferments its dinner in a throat pouch, a tailless whip scorpion that senses danger through its legs, and a jaguar with one of the most powerful bites of any mammal. Thank you to every reader who did the research and made the case for their champion.
