What to do with a 7 Year Old in Quebec City

My wife and I will be travelling over the new year to Quebec City with our 7 year old son. We have travelled to Quebec City numerous times before but never with a child. Any suggestions on what to do with him would be great. We hope to ski a day or two at Mount Saint Anne if the weather permits. Thanks for your help.

How about the Museum of Civilization? This is an eclectic, hands on science and history museum by the waterfront that will entertain him (and probably his parents too!) for several hours. There's also an observatory at the top of the Hotel du Parlament, that overlooks the entire old city.

Our daughter was enchanted at a similar age with the decoration of the Chateau Frontenac at Christmas and I understand they do a huge Winter Carnevale thing as well.

He'll love the funicular that goes up to the higher level. You'll probably have to ride up and down a billion times.

Another alternative is Valcartier Village Vacances an amazing Winter Playground http://www.valcartier.com

Also a tour of La Citadelle, a national historical site in winter, bilingual guides
