Created in 2005, Cap Enfants is a network of inter-company crèches that develops a multi-sensory pedagogy that is unique in the world, notably through music, but also thanks to an innovative tool, La Bulle Musicale®/ The musical Igloo®. This pedagogy is made available in Cap Enfants crèches and encourages the cognitive, motor and social development of the child by awakening the 5 senses.
Created in 1988, the “Société des Neurosciences” is a non-profit scientific association (under the 1901 law). It promotes the development of research in all areas of neuroscience (fundamental, clinical and applied research) and encourages interaction between researchers from all backgrounds. It is composed of French and foreign members.
Created in 2017 (under the 1901 law), the “Nez en Herbe” association aims to integrate olfactory awareness into educational programmes . The sense of smell allows us to discover the world, to know ourselves and therefore to exercise our curiosity. The members of this association are professionals and experts such as perfumers, researchers, artists or even philosophers.
Founded in 2010, the “Eveil’O’Goût” association aims to help adults and children rediscover the act of eating as a social moment of pleasure and conviviality. Through a sensory-based approach to food education, it supports children through taste workshops and adults through training courses (parents, health, education, school catering, entertainment and food professionals). Eveil’O’goût is based on the use of the five senses in tasting. Everyone can benefit from their own sensory abilities. Each individual becomes more attuned to his or her own senses, sharing them with others, while respecting individual and cultural differences.

The association “La Semaine du Son” was founded by Christian Hugonnet, an acoustics engineer, with the aim of introducing the public, elected representatives and all players in society to a better understanding of sound and the importance of the quality of the sound environment, which must not only be preserved but in many cases restored. Since 2004, it has organized an annual week of events in January, focusing on sound-related issues from a cross-disciplinary perspective: cultural, medical, industrial, educational and economic.
In 2006, this unique event was awarded a “Décibel d’Or” by the Conseil National du Bruit, a consultative body under the patronage of the French Ministry of Ecology and Sustainable Development.

Created in 2019, the company “Musical Igloo” introduces us to the “Bulle Musicale®”. It is innovative, patented and certified educational equipment that has been deployed for more than 20 years. Through music, the Musical Bubble® allows children from 10 weeks to 6 years to be active in their sensory discoveries, to develop their vocabulary as well as their ability to listen, memorize and concentrate, but also to open up to the diverse cultures of the world. An action research carried out in 2016 in conjunction with INSERM and the results of which were published in 2022 in a scientific journal attests to the cognitive, motor, social and emotional benefits of La Bulle Musicale® on young children.
Created in 2008, “Orchestre à l’École” is a non-profit association under the 1901 law, recognized as being of public utility and under a framework agreement with three ministries (Culture, National Education and Territorial Cohesion). An essential cog and National Resource Center, the association pilots the development of the system by financing 50% of the instrumental fleet, supports project leaders on a daily basis, works to promote the system (production of exceptional events, training, etc.).
