Today we are making a laurel wreath like the ancient Greeks gave to the winners of the Olympic Games or with which Julius Caesar is often depicted. We draw a bay leaf on a thick piece of cardboard and cut it out. Now all we have to do is trace this leaf. Easy Peasy say the mini monsters ;))

Let the glue dry thoroughly before putting the wreath on your head.

The wreath fits perfectly!
