Grano x Habitare Kids
Draw on the table! AAPA furniture, made from Grano honeycomb cardboard, decorates the Habitare Kids area. Children can draw on the tables and together create collective art on the furniture.
Decorate a doll’s house! In Grano’s delightful doll houses, children can get into the decorating spirit by colouring rugs, curtains and other household objects. But who might live in the doll house?
Postcard workshop – Step into the Good Spirit Christmas Cottage, write a Christmas greeting and bring to life the language-savvy Hilda or the keen little drawer Tuike!
The Good Spirit Christmas Card is Korttipiste’s charity campaign to keep alive the culture of card writing and the importance of a handwritten message to its recipient
Finally, grab a photo to remember on the Habitare Kids x Grano photo wall.
