| Whether the children came from
Denver or Saponé, this environmental education twinning allowed
exchanges to take place between both children and animators. It allowed
them to use ideas, concepts of nature, and games, making them their own
using scientific and pleasurable methods. Internet permitted this and was
well worth while for everybody.
The games, exchanges, and discussions generated by this short meeting in Brest will certainly leave worthwhile traces. This is guaranteed by the smiles, bursts of laughter, and expressions of wide-eyed wonder. The association Jardins d'enfants (Children's gardens) has passed on this new network of relations to the twinning association Brest-jumelages. In a planetary epoch it is a good thing to keep your friends, your twin cities: tutors, references. Today, the Internet site http://jardinsdenfants.free.fr and the oak planted by these ambassadors right in the centre of Brest bear witness to these wonderful exchanges and the ethnographic, cultural and scientific material that they offered us. We would like this fresh and spontaneous
seedbed to inspire new initiatives and, beyond gardens, urge us to
meet together and discover more and more…
