The Paris Brain Institute podcast answers children’s questions

Why do I dream? Why do I prefer pizza and not zucchini? How do I learn to read?

The Brain Institute has decided to devote a brand new podcast to the questions that children ask themselves and that call neuroscience into question. In about 4 minutes, researchers from Paris Brain Institute provide a simple, playful answer. What a family to share!

“Dans le coin du ciboulot!”, the smart podcast that explores the powers of your brain!

Talking, feeling, reading, writing, learning, walking, dreaming… None of this would be possible without our brains. It is thanks to him that we are aware of the world around us, of ourselves and of our friends with whom we can interact. He still controls and controls our feelings. But how does it work? What happens when we play? When do we sleep? Or when we learn a mathematics course? Even if the brain contains the greatest mysteries, we know today, thanks to the researchers, to identify most of its components and how they work together; this is what we propose to discover in these 2 booklets to download. Enjoy your reading!

Tout au long de l'année, l'Institut du Cerveau ouvre ses portes pour accueillir tous les publics. Lors de ces manifestations, nous prenons soin de proposer des activités adaptées aux tous petits.

La semaine du Cerveau

La Semaine du Cerveau, organisée chaque année en mars depuis 1999, est un événement international se déroulant simultanément dans une centaine de pays et plus de 120 villes en France. Elle vise à sensibiliser le grand public à l’importance de la recherche sur le cerveau.

Durant cet événement, les enfants et les ados pourront participer à des ateliers spécialement conçus pour eux (extraction d'ADN, tests de cognition, etc.).

Et pour les plus petits, un espace créatif dédié sera mis à disposition avec un accès libre à des coloriages, découpages et autres jeux de construction.
