BABY PARK

The Baby Park or initiation to carriage driving for 3-7 year olds is a unique concept in Switzerland and a real hit with children!

Thanks to adapted equipment and a rigorously tested and implemented educational concept, as well as dogs selected for the activity, your child will be able to take his first steps and evolve in driving with pleasure and in complete safety through the following 5 levels:

Level I: acquiring the basic skills
Level II : to drive with ease
Level III : to become autonomous
Level IV : use your skills to help others
Level V : acquire additional skills and know the peripheral elements

LEVEL I: The first hour is reserved for learning the 5 key skills (without a dog) in the form of games; the second hour is reserved for meeting the dogs, as well as a lap. Parents are welcome to support their children in their learning.

There are 7 Baby Parks in France and 1 in Switzerland. The pedagogical concept is identical and your child will be able to move from one to the other. It is the object of a franchise created by Expérience Montagne (Frédéric and Elsa Borgey).

Fun and good humor will be the order of the day!
The technical test and the medal are included in the reservation.

Practical information: the activity takes place at 1984 Les Haudères, parking at the Tennis. The list of equipment will follow in the confirmation email.
