Sculpture Garden Tour

Children are invited to explore Rodin’s works in the lush surroundings of the sculpture garden. During a guided walk, the artworks are discovered in natural light, while the stories of the garden and the creations it houses are revealed.

Hands-on Fun at The Atelier Rodin

After the tour, it’s time to get creative! Guided by a facilitator, children can make their own sculptures from modeling clay, pose like The Thinker, and experiment with Rodin’s signature assembly techniques.

Birthday Treat at L’Augustine

End the festive afternoon in style at the museum’s garden café-restaurant, L’Augustine. Pre-order your cake + drink package to have a ready-to-serve birthday treat upon arrival, with table service included. 

Surprise Gifts from the Museum Shop!

Because a successful birthday continues even after the party, give your child’s little guests a lovely “budding artist” goodie bag.

And for a truly unique birthday, you can also create a custom-made bag—so each guest leaves with a wonderful memory of this special day.
