Efteling Hansel and Gretel papercraft giveaway! (deadline July 14th, 2023)


The Efteling is the biggest amusement park in the Netherlands, and probably most dutch people will have visited it at least once in their lifetime with their parents or on a school trip. 😀

For older kids and adults, there are exciting story-themed rollercoasters 🎢 and other attractions, but once upon a time, the Efteling started as just a Fairytale Forest 🍂🍄 with a few attractions about the old fairy tales written down by famous writers like Hans Christian Andersen, Charles Perrault, and the Brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm.

One of the fairytales featured there is of course the famous story of Hansel and Gretel, who find a strange house made of delicious candy after being left in the forest by their parents who could not take care of them anymore...


In the Efteling, the witch that turns out to live there is on her guard (having just captured Hansel and Gretel as you can see...) and whenever her black cat spots any new visitors at the garden fence, she checks at the door to ask "who's knibbling on her home!"

So maybe it's better to leave her alone and continue on to the next fairytale if you don't want to end up like poor Hansel and Gretel... (spoiler: they do escape in the end 😉)


The Fairytale Forest 🍂🍄 is the original heart of the Efteling and the visual style was created by the artist Anton Pieck. Basically, because of the Efteling, for dutch children this is what houses and castles in fairytale forests look like!


The Giveaway

I'm giving away the official Efteling papercraft of the Hansel and Gretel house from 2008 (there were a few others in this official papercraft series, but I couldn't find them so easily, sorry!)

If you want a chance to make your own piece of the Efteling's Fairytale Forest
  • Simply enter your emailadress in the Google Form below before 23:59 CET (Central European Time) July 14th, 2023. That's all. 😊
  1. After the deadline I will randomly draw a winner and contact them through the emailadress they left (so make sure it's correct!)
  2. This is a physical papercraft (I will NOT scan it!) so make sure you're okay with telling me a physical address where I can send your prize if you're the lucky winner (if you're underage, ask your guardians if it's okay first!)
  3. Anybody can enter this no matter where you live! 🌎📬
  4. This is a free giveaway just for fun: I will pay the shipping costs myself (if there are any custom fees or anything like that, let me know and I will take care of those as well 👍)
NOTE: Unfortunately, the coupons on the papercraft for entering the Efteling are not valid anymore - but go visit anyway if you get the chance! 😉

Have fun and good luck!
