Your prehistoric birthday awaits!
Celebrating a birthday with friends at the Prehistoric Park of the Grottes du Cerdon near Lyon in the Ain region is possible! Your children can visit the caves and participate in fun activities related to prehistory in a natural setting. Birthday activities… a natural setting to blow out the candles… a gift for the birthday child… a ready-made invitation!
Birthday activities at the Prehistoric Park:
- Master fire-making techniques like prehistoric humans,
- Hunting with a prehistoric spear-thrower,
- Creating an ornament,
- Making prehistoric paintings: using ochre to leave your mark,
- Shaping pottery like in the Neolithic period…
“Tailor-made” birthdays in the form of a competition between clans or simply to practice ancient skills with friends, but also… why not simply offer a gift certificate for a family birthday at the Grottes du Cerdon?
Depending on the availability of our bilingual entertainers, we offer birthday activities in English only.
