“Mommy, why is it called ‘Les Plans’?” a little girl asked, her hand tucked tightly in her mother’s. They were standing before the cheerful yellow building of École maternelle Les Plans. The mother smiled down at her daughter. “That’s a good question!

It operates on a four-day week, giving the children a well-deserved break and offering a glimpse into the rhythm of life in this charming corner of France.
