My 3 grandchildren loved it: choosing and carving their pumpkin, the mask, the make-up, the little tattoo and of course the snack. Mathieu's welcome - his availability to the children and his patience. Perhaps some Halloween music and costumes for the animators would be a plus.

We had a great time with our children. Just one small point, we would need a little more time, 2.45pm to 4.30pm would be better for the various activities on offer. Thank you for this experience
