During this session, the children will discover ants and other little mysteries of nature during a walk around the village (leisure area, fitness trail, Replein path, etc.).
How many legs does an ant have, how does a slug move? ... And here's a grasshopper spreading its hidden, carefully folded wings... What are insects good for? How do bees choose flowers to pollinate? So many intriguing questions about nature...
What could be more exciting than touching an earthworm, catching a butterfly... To understand nature, there's nothing like being outdoors with friends... and without your parents, who you can tell everything to when you get home! Did you know that a fly has six legs but a spider has eight!
A millipede doesn't have a thousand legs, but between 24 and 750 depending on its species! And the snail? They can walk 9 metres an hour, fast for weeks on end and keep their heads down thanks to the mucus they secrete. The little beasts are truly extraordinary creatures that deserve our respect.

For technical information, mountain guides are on duty at the Tourist Office from 6pm to 7pm in July and August.
