In order to make the best honey, bees gather pollen from all kinds of flowers and plants.
To help them, the children must find the plant nectars that will make their production as delicious as it is abundant.
In each round, players will all smell the same odor and must be the first to place the bee on the recognized element, illustrated on the board. Only the first bee to arrive will be able to stay there!
A smell-image recognition system that allows children, from 3 years old, to awaken their sense of smell and in all simplicity! This game offers two rules of the game, one of which does not involve smells.
Educational method
Our range of sensory games, based on the Montessori method, explores a learning method that allows each child to discover their environment, by themselves, through their different senses. This game allows them to awaken their sense of smell by discovering different smells of fruits, vegetables and plants.
Manufacturing secrets
The scents were developed by Véronique Debroise, a perfumer, with a high demand for quality in order to educate the younger generations to have an olfactory culture with the most beautiful raw materials of perfumery and thus make them discover the scents of nature.
A game created and manufactured 100% in France.
Directions for use
Our scent capsules are guaranteed for a minimum of 2 years of olfaction and can last much longer if they are closed after each game with the right cap. Keep the game away from a heat source.
You can't recognize a smell? Don't panic, smell is a sense that can be trained! Someone who is not used to recognizing smells without the help of a written support may find it a difficult exercise, but we guarantee that with a little practice, it will become child's play.
Our first tip is to learn to categorize the smell you are smelling: is it sweet? fruity? woody? floral? etc.
Our second tip is to know what this smell evokes for you. Indeed, the sense of smell is the sense that has the most memory! A smell can therefore evoke a season (summer strawberries), a person (the smell of lavender in your grandmother's cupboard), a dish, a shampoo, a place, etc. Automatically, this can help you make the connection and put a word on your olfactory sensation.
Finally, smells are like colors. They are full of nuances. In the same way that there are shades of green, there are multiple shades of apple: Green apple, Golden, Granny Smith, Apple juice, Apple sauce... The smells proposed in our games are therefore one of the many nuances of the smell that we have tried to make as realistic and qualitative as possible.
Having difficulty naming a smell does not mean that we do not have a sense of smell, but simply that we do not yet have the plasticity of the brain to make a link between the perceived sensation that arrives in the center of perception, the hypothalamus and the center of language. This is acquired over time, as perfumers and oenologists can do.
