Fifty Kim'Play glitter scoubidous, each around 80 centimetres long, in translucent colours with glitter in the plastic. A folded leaflet comes with the strands: 'Je sais faire les scoubidous'.
That leaflet is what sets this bag apart from the plain one. Anyone who has never braided before can see where to start, how the four strands cross and how to carry on flat, round or square after that. The back shows how to make a little man and an animal. The text is in French, but the drawings speak for themselves.
Fifty strands make roughly ten keyrings, depending on how long you braid them and how many colours go into each one. Knot it to a ring, a zip or the loop of a schoolbag and it is done.
A suitable starter pack for anyone still getting the hang of the braid, and a quiet little present for a journey or for a day when it rains outside.
