Our outreach and library teams invite you to an afternoon of activities blending science and literature, inspired by [Jean-Jacques Rousseau's herbarium.](https://www.jardinbotaniquegeneve.ch/expositions/jamais-nature-ne-nous-trompe) For science: you can observe the cellular structure of plants under a binocular microscope and learn how to mount herbarium sheets, just as Jean-Jacques Rousseau did. For literature: join us for two storytelling sessions at 2:30 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. Throughout the afternoon, enjoy games and colouring activities about biodiversity and the plants in Jean-Jacques Rousseau's herbarium.
