Le Jardin du Moulin - Botanist Transfers

There is something almost unreasonably satisfying about rubbing a pencil across a transfer sheet and watching a beautiful illustration appear as if from nowhere, and children feel this just as keenly as adults do. This set from Moulin Roty's "Le Jardin du Moulin" collection is full of botanical flora and fauna illustrations to transfer onto the two included backgrounds, or onto notebooks, tins, folders, whatever they'd like to make their own. The results look genuinely lovely, which means they'll want to put them on absolutely everything. You have been gently warned.

We love it because:

• The botanical illustrations are beautiful in the distinctive "Le Jardin du Moulin" style, so the results look really special
• Two backgrounds included, but the transfers work on all sorts of surfaces, notebooks, folders, tins, making personalising things a whole new project
• The rubbing technique is simple enough for ages 4 and up but satisfying enough to hold attention properly
• One of those activities where the process is as enjoyable as the result, which is always a good sign
• Makes a lovely addition to an art or stationery gift, or a brilliant standalone treat
• Small and light enough to tuck into a holiday bag or take anywhere

What's in the box:

• Transfer sheets with botanical flora and fauna illustrations
• 2 backgrounds

Great for:

• Ages 4 and up
• Quiet independent play, rainy afternoons, or a calm creative activity after school

• Fine motor skills, creativity and the deeply satisfying magic of watching something appear
