Fait avec une enfant de 6 ans (sauf les mains)
Activité faite avec des enfants de 4 ans. Un peu difficile pour couper les pailles. Besoin d'aide mais rendu très sympa. Attention pas de paille en plastique
Dommage que je ne puisse pas partager le rendu car vraiment très sympa ce squelette !
Activité réussie proposée lors des vacances de la toussaint (Halloween)
