LAVORETTI PER NATALE – stella di carta trasparente – modello 8. Tutorial per realizzare una stella di carta trasparente a otto punte con la tecnica del paperfolding (o piegatura della carta).

E’ un’attività che consiglio, da proporre ai bambini dai 6 anni in su. Oltre ad essere un esercizio importante per sostenere lo sviluppo di una sana coordinazione occhio-mano, ha elementi rilassanti e meditativi.
