Under the cobblestones, life

- To discover the falcons of Notre-Dame or the hedgehogs of the gardens, for example, children play with an animated cupboard, a virtual magnifying glass, a musical memory?
Freshwater sailors
- Analysis of an alluvial plain crossed by the Seine
- The river, in the form of a transparent table, hosts naturalized specimens and animations

Around the world

Cogitate, cogitons
