Picotage Apparitions

Discover the enchanting world of Apparitions, a playful activity that invites children to explore the wonders of light and shadows while cultivating precision and mastery of their small gestures. Inspired by the famous Montessori pedagogy, this kit offers a captivating and educational experience that combines fun and learning in every detail.

With Apparitions, each child becomes a budding magician: they start by choosing a background from the 16 colorful illustrations provided. They then select an animal pattern, which they overlay on the background. The real art begins! Using a tool designed to be both simple and safe, the child delicately dots along the predefined points. This step is not only fun—it teaches the delicacy of the gesture and the importance of gauging their strength, essential skills for many everyday tasks.

But the highlight of the show comes when the child places a light source behind their work: as if by magic, the chosen animal appears in all its glory, illuminated by a soft light. This revelation is not only spectacular, it is also a valuable lesson on the properties of light and shadows.

The foam and thick cardboard support included in the kit is specially designed to keep the sheets in place while the child works, ensuring that even the most enthusiastic can participate without disturbing their creation. The kit also includes an explanatory booklet, fully illustrated in color and without text, which guides children through the process in an intuitive and engaging way.

Environmentally friendly, all materials used in Apparitions are FSC® certified, ensuring that your purchase supports the sustainable management of the world's forests.

Offer your child not only a moment of entertainment, but also a window open to active and creative learning. Apparitions is not just a game, it’s a gateway to curiosity and knowledge, packaged in an experience that will amaze both young and old. Dive into this adventure where each dotting is a step further towards discovery!
