Hôtel de Caumont

Between courtyard and garden

From January to December 2023

"Between courtyard and garden" is conceived as a sensory journey through the fauna and flora of the French gardens of the Hôtel de Caumont: a playful and interactive visit to help children discover the Gardens Art through their senses, to connect them to their emotions and to allow them a moment of escape from their daily lives.

This tour is based on the story of Jean-Baptiste de Bruny, the historic owner of the Hôtel particulier. The children, like amateur botanists, explore the gardens and discover the place through their senses: smell, touch, hearing and sight. They evolve at the rhythm of their senses and, in contact with the various species of trees and plants, discover the codes of landscaping: plan, aesthetics, choice and maintenance of plants... With this journey rich in multi-sensory and sensitive experiences, the neurotransmitters of the child are activated and rebalanced in order to stimulate pleasure, calmness and relaxation but also memory with the pedagogy around biodiversity.
