Stimulating learning for the very young
In spring, nature awakens and provides the perfect setting to stimulate learning in the youngest children. Whether discovering new landscapes, meeting animals in their natural habitat, or exploring interactive museums, every activity becomes a chance to awaken children's curiosity and imagination.

Vacations in France, with its many interesting and beautiful destinations, are ideal for introducing young minds to our rich cultural and natural heritage.

For example, a hike in the Calanques of the Var or a bike ride along the beaches of Brittany allows you to reconnect with nature while creating unforgettable moments.

A well-deserved break from screens

Between online homework, video games and social networking, it's becoming essential for young people to disconnect regularly in order to grow up with balance and curiosity. The spring vacations are a particularly popular time for families to take a break from screens and enjoy enriching and stimulating outdoor activities. In the spring, numerous exhibitions on a region's heritage, or visits to museums, are offered by Tourist Offices in tourist areas.
