Paris with kids
 

kids 5 & 7 . .. what would be the 10 things that you would recommend to do with them?

A friend who took her daughter to Paris purchased the Fodors book Around Paris with Kids, which lists a bunch of activities to do with your kids. My friend gave the book to her daughter to pick her own top 10 list. It was a good way to get the girl involved in the trip. Maybe the book will help you out also.

Ype in "paris with kids" (without quotes) in the search field above and you will find many previous posts on the subject.

That should be "type".

Here goes - in no particular order and it's also a bit animal-heavy:

Quai de la Megisserie pet stores;
Marche aux Oiseaux (weekends behind Notre Dame);
Jardin des Plantes / Zoo (we went three times in 10 days...);
Parc de la Villette and Science museum;
Bring leftover baguette in a plastic bag as you walk around the city to feed birds;
Public parks and sandboxes are all over the place - fun way to interact with local kids;
The Ferris Wheel and arcades in the Jardin des Tuileries, if you can stand it - our daughter will never forget the cotton candy there that was almost as big as she was!;
Parc des Buttes Chaumont (maybe);
Bateaux Mouches (maybe);
That's 9...bonne chance!-msm4
