Early learning and socialisation workshop before preschool
Our Workshop: Les Comptines
We welcome children from 18 months to 4 years old who are not yet attending school in a calm and stimulating environment, through half-day sessions in Manosque. This comforting environment encourages their development, social skills and gives them a first experience of life in a group situation, while supporting parents during their children’s first separations before starting preschool.
We offer a wide range of age-appropriate activities: sensory development, motor skills, arts and crafts, nature and gardening. Our qualified professional team ensures the well-being, creativity and development of each child.
Personalised settling-in sessions are organised with families to ensure a smooth transition in safe, welcoming spaces designed to stimulate early learning and the joy of exploration.
