A journey through the castle rooms that turns Halloween into an opportunity to discover nature from an unusual perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:48px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1\" style=\"font-size:30px\"><strong>The format: independence, darkness, and discovery<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The tour is designed for children aged 6 to 12 and takes place without parents present: participants explore the museum rooms independently alongside museum staff. This is a intentional educational choice: children face the experience without the safety net of their parents or guardians, helping them develop independence and observational skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Every participant must bring a flashlight or headlamp: darkness is an integral part of the experience, and some of the most interesting things in the animal world are best revealed when the main light comes from where you are looking, not from above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-default has-dark-1-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2\" style=\"font-size:30px\"><strong>Practical information<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The tour takes place on Friday, October 31, from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM, meeting at the Museum ticket office at 5:15 PM. Duration is approximately one hour and a half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">There are 15 spots available for children aged 6 to 12. The cost is \u20ac5 per child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Reservations are mandatory by 2:30 PM on Thursday, October 30, at museoscienze@regione.vda.it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The activity is conducted in Italian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:48px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday, October 31, from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM, the Efisio Noussan Museum offers a special guided tour for children aged 6 to 12 through the rooms of Saint-Pierre Castle.
