The little monsters' favorite season will start soon! Skeletons, ghosts, cobwebs, Halloween is the perfect time to make their little hairs shiver. To stay in the theme, we offer you a list of 10 recipes to make with your children.

Ah Halloween aka the best of the year. Horror films, terrifying costumes, monstrous decorations, children are very fond of this period to give free rein to their imaginations.
