How can we create a (magical) forest inside the classroom?
In this atelier the forest as a natural environment is explored and its magically interpreted. First children are accompanied to an exploration in nature to observe and explore a forest, a park, a garden. Trees, leaves, branches, gathering fruit, leaves or pine cones will ignite curiosity, and become the starting point for a creative experience at home with the family. At school, children create a magical forest through a collaborative immersive set-up. The forest is composed of natural elements, children’s drawings that become luminescent in the dark, projections and a personalized forest soundtrack that they create with a composition app.
