About the exhibition

The Inventomobiles collection is a unique educational initiative that brings the museum into schools. These educational kits travel in vans and are led and moderated by teachers.

Each educational kit includes a small exhibition, workshop materials, and a resource centre. Depending on the school size, the Inventomobile stays for a week or two and involves teachers, their pupils and even their families, making learning an interactive and fun experience for all.

The Invontomobiles collection includes several themes, such as :

• Seeing with other eyes

• In search of the past

• Around the written word

• The five senses
