To add a touch of sweetness to these intellectual exchanges, homemade cakes are served to all attendees. This event is specifically designed for children aged 6 to 10 years old, with ticket prices starting from 5€.

Our take on this event
Journalist Charlotte Cousin invites young minds to the heart of the Communale Saint-Ouen for weekly philosophy workshops. Taking place every Wednesday from 15:30 to 16:30, these sessions aim to teach children aged 6 to 10 the fundamentals of debating and critical thinking. By fostering an atmosphere where all ideas can be shared and challenged, the workshop encourages participants to develop their own voice while respecting the opinions of others.
There are no right or wrong answers in these discussions; instead, the focus remains on the joy of exploring complex topics together. To keep the energy high, the session includes a snack break featuring homemade cakes. The program runs from October 7, 2026, through December 30, 2026. Parents should plan for a participation fee starting at 5€ per child to secure a spot for these educational afternoons.
