Wenn du alles richtig gemacht hast, kannst du das Bändchen nun auf der Vorderseite der Meerjungfrauflosse binden.
So verhinderst du das die angezogene Meerjungfrauflosse wieder vom Körper des Püppchen rutscht.
Gratulation! Du hast es geschafft!
Hast du das Ribbelmonster schon in den sozialen Netzwerken getroffen?
