+ spending the day at the
Pompidou center area.
a large area without cars starts at the 'Jardin du Forum des Halles', A big medieval church with a big head sculpture in the front that the kids like to climb, and green grass with water canals.
good falafel stands in a walking distance [Tilal - 4 euro].
good Italian ice cream [3 euro] in front of the Forum Des Halles Fountain.
lots of pigeon to scare and to feed.
in front of the museum itself many music and theater street shows, and the kids of all ages just love putting the money in the hats.
next to the museum there is a nice shallow pool with turning sculptures, very colorful and not far from the seine.
+
bateauxparisiens is just one of the companies that gives a one hour tour in the seine, all my children enjoyed it [11 euro per person 6 per child] and even I found it interesting and very relaxing. the starting point is under the
Eiffel Tower which is always a great hit, even if you don't climb it, it also has a nice garden for picnics under it.
+ many days were spent at the
jardin_des_tuileries, except for good ice cream and coffee, you can rent a small wooden boat to sail at the fountain water [ 2 euro for half an hour], there are nice sculpture to climb and the children's playground is absolutly original and amusing, behind it there is a classical 'mary go round' and a large trampolina facility, other then that you can always feed the ducks or check if the Obelisk is at the center of the Victory gate.
