Why choose Chêne-Bougeries for a family outing?

The Maison de la Créativité is worth the trip on its own. Located in a beautiful house surrounded by a garden, it invites children aged 0 to 8 to explore, manipulate, play, and imagine freely: sensory workshops, symbolic play areas, artistic discoveries… Here, there is no imposed program — we follow the child's rhythm, and adults accompany.

It's the kind of place that leaves you with ideas in your head and calm children. Families love it for winter mornings when they need to get out of the four walls without facing the weather, and the garden extends the experience as soon as the nice days arrive.

Easily accessible by tram from the center of Geneva, Chêne-Bougeries pairs well with a stroll in the parks of Trois-Chêne. A gentle, creative, and pressure-free outing: exactly what little ones — and their parents — need.
