fiogf49gjkf0d With its vibrant street atmosphere, buskers and lively pavement cafAŠs, Paris holds an immediate appeal for many
children
. The most popular tourist attractions such as the Eiffel Tower and boat trips on the Seine are also sure to delight the young. Don't necessarily rule out museums - some, such as the MusAŠe des Arts et MAŠtiers, Pompidou Centre and Parc de la Villette, have interactive displays and hands-on activities, designed to appeal to all ages. When your children get fed up of trawling the streets you can recharge batteries in one of the city's many parks and gardens. And if you really want to give the kiddies a treat, Disneyland Paris is just outside the city, and there's also the home-grown theme park to the north, Parc AstAŠrix.
The French are extremely welcoming to children on the whole. Many
restaurants
and cafAŠs offer a special menu
enfant
or are willing to cook simpler food on request.
Hotels
tack on only a small supplement to the regular room rate for an additional bed or cot.
