Jump into a noisy, playful world where two inventors turn rusty batteries and odd objects into surprising music. Watch them build sounds, mix rhythms, and make puppets sing as clattering beats and bright tones fill the space. Children will laugh, listen closely, and be invited to imagine new instruments, follow fast movements, and feel the music with hands and feet. The show mixes theatre, puppetry, and live composition to spark curiosity and creativity.
In French. Kids ages 3 and up.
The Biopark is temporarily hosting Janus, a unique two-headed Greek tortoise, during the renovation of the Museum. Each head of this male tortoise has its own independent brain, which sometimes makes its movements challenging. In captivity, Janus receives attentive care, resulting in an impressive lifespan of 26 years.

The session encourages listening, creativity and confidence with music technology.
