child naturalist drawing workshop

In small groups of 5, your children will leave with an art-science facilitator to choose a place in the garden and stop where the flowers have called out to them.

Each one takes his or her pencil in hand, his or her drawing book, and stroke by stroke, will learn more about plants, botany and environmental sciences, while doing a usual manual activity...

During this time, you parents can also discover the garden and pick up your children before the guided tour at 4pm.
