The tree is a very precious element for our planet. But what is it for and how is it used by man? We will discover it through direct experience with educational-entertainment activities in the forest, the observation of a craftsman at work, a visit to the water sawmill and the exhibition spaces of the MAV. At the end of the day, the children will create their own object in the Educational Carpentry: a real journey “from the forest to the object”.

Min. 10 and max. 25 participants per group ; possibility of dividing larger groups into subgroups.
