CO-ED

Have some fun with both guys and dolls. The menu of things to see and do in the City of Light with kids in tow is endless. Here are a few of our top picks: Take to the skies with hot air Balloon and Helicopter rides; discover Paris by bicycle; Listen to Gospel music;  Ride all the Carousels in town and stoke the imagination of kids in Cité des Enfants, (Children’s City) Parc de la Villette, Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie, Pony Club de la Villette, La Géode, Musée Grévin, Musée de la Magie (Museum of Magic) and Double Fond.

Urban Crayon Paris is a recommended
"Read Before You Go" on the Family Travel Forum Web site.

The first of an upcoming series of hip city guides, Urban Crayon Paris offers families a city guide that highlights sights, sleeps, eats, and shopping, while remaining budget conscious. There are 12 categories, such as Playground Paradise, Mother and Baby Pampering, and If You Have To Be a Tourist. For kids, there are the Dudes, Divas, and Co-Ed sections.

For boys, activities such as Napolean's Tomb or Break Dancers in Les Halles are recommended, while the Doll Museum and Museum of Fashion are suggested for girls. The co-ed section is really for the entire family, suggesting activities such as a hot air balloon ride and the Museum of Magic, while the Bonjour Baby introductory section gives general, but essential information for families, such as opening and closing times of some attractions, 24-hour facilities, and even
information on babysitting, in case parents need a romantic night out.
