### 5/5 — Magique !!!

*2024-07-16*

Avant mon fils de 4 ans criait dès que je l’appelais pour se brosser les dents. Maintenant c’est lui qui vient me chercher et me presse de lui brosser les 3 fois par jour.
J’aurais néanmoins une question : avez-vous prévu de developper les étapes avec Sam le chat ? Mon fils a peur du koala et il ne veut que Sam le chat.
Merci
