Η Καμηλοπάρδαλη που ήθελε να πετάξει

Όλοι είχαμε σαν όνειρο κάποια στιγμή να πετάξουμε και να δούμε τον κόσμο από ψηλά. Μια καμηλοπάρδαλη λοιπόν είχε ακριβώς το ίδιο, ήθελε να πετάξει.

Δείτε μια μουσική παράσταση που θα σας ταξιδέψει και θα σας κάνει να ξανά βρείτε τον παιδικό εαυτό σας.

Messy Play

Ελάτε να σας δείξουμε πώς μπορείτε να δημιουργήσετε υπέροχες ζωγραφιές μόνο με τα χέρια και την φαντασία σας.
