Therapeutic outings are unique forms of care that take place outside the walls of the institution. Based on a clinical vignette, this article explores their psychological effects on adolescents. By mobilizing cultural spaces and third-party mediators, they offer a group setting that is temporary and transitional, conducive to subjectivation, surprise, and shared pleasure. They also allow family experiences to be revisited through a group confronted with otherness outside the institution.

Thinking of beauty as a therapeutic possibility, offering artistic and cultural spaces to children in situations of psychological vulnerability: these are some of the elements that make up the "Vibrer l'art" project. Exposure to the beauty of the world, whether artistic or natural, has restorative powers, particularly for children who have experienced multiple traumas during their childhood. An immersion project in an artistic residency, focused on two objectives -prevention and care-, is offered to a group of children in the care of child welfare services.

A partnership between a museum (musée national des Arts asiatiques-Guimet) and a child and adolescent psychiatry department (Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital) has resulted in the creation of a joint work that will be exhibited in the museum. This cultural experience has enabled children and adolescents in distress to unleash their creative potential and discover themselves in a different way, strengthened by this joint artistic project.

Chronic pain in infants remains difficult to investigate and is underestimated. It can lead to neurological and hormonal changes, impacting emotional regulation, stress response, cognitive development, and long-term health. Excessive crying can be an indicator of chronic pain. Early and appropriate management, based on reliable diagnostic criteria and a multidisciplinary approach, is essential.

Neuroscience work on our aesthetic judgment skills shows that the neurocognitive mechanisms involved are far from being as basic and automatic as one might think. Aesthetic pleasure can thus be broken down into three complementary layers: sensory, memory and analytical pleasure. In multivariate models of creativity, several components are also considered: cognitive, conative, emotional, and environmental or social. Neuroimaging studies show that there are common brain networks mobilized for aesthetic judgment and creativity tasks, which helps explain why, if we ask people to perform creativity tasks, we notice that this then stimulates their aesthetic sensitivity, and vice versa.

Beyond any initial surprise, the involvement of street artists in healthcare facilities, on commission, is helping to transform these places, particularly those dedicated to caring for children. By breaking with the classic aesthetic expected of a hospital room, medical waiting room, etc., street art, in its various forms and universes, provides valuable sensory and emotional experiences in this very special context. Without replacing medical care (which is not its purpose), this artistic expression helps to create a warmer, more positive atmosphere, that benefits young patients, their families, and caregivers alike.

From the fetal period onwards, integrated sensory perception lays the foundations for aesthetic experience. In infants, social interactions and multisensory experiences promote attentive engagement with the world, based on the body and the senses. There is currently little research on babies' aesthetic sense, but numerous scientific studies reveal the importance of their multisensory skills for learning. We can therefore hypothesize that aesthetic sense is a driver of human development.

A study evaluated the effect of using singing as an additional non-pharmacological means of preventing pain and discomfort in premature and full-term newborns. Distraction through singing reduces pain and influences the behavior of the newborn. This technique, which is little known in neonatology but appreciated by parents and caregivers, improves the quality of care. The voice appears to provide sensory support in developmental care.
