Paris with Kids - What Parents Should Know

[@masonhancock5350]

Wolter, all due respect, but I think we all learned from Clark Griswold that getting everyone personalized berets for an Eiffel run is the way to go.

[@WoltersWorldShorts]

True. Very true.

[@AN-jw2oe]

😂

[@cmolodiets]

you should try "la cité des sciences" in Paris. It's a museum about sciences and it's kid friendly

[@benjieleogardo]

For kids (and adults too!) there's Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie, the largest science park in Europe, at Parc de la Villette that's very interactive. It even has a real submarine! You can also take the kids to Musée des Arts et Métiers, the Musée de la Magie (Museum of Magic), the Aquarium de Paris, Jardin Des Plantes, the amusement park (in summer) by rue de Rivoli beside the Louvre, and of course, just as a last resort, Disneyland Paris

[@wingedhussar1117]

My personal tip for visiting Paris with children: Check out the aquarium near the Eiffel tower!! There is plenty of jellyfish, sharks etc., children love that :)

[@BronzeBellaBria]

Whoa. I didn't even know that there was one!

[@킹콩육아]

I am also planning to visit Paris with my daughter in February, and your information has been very helpful. Thank you.

[@Elina1011]

Oh now I can tell Marc something! When you come from the Les Invalides side and walk toward the Eiffel Tower on your right side behind the Busch is a rather big playground. The perfect place to enjoy the view as a parent and let your 1 to probably 6 years old also enjoy. 😀

[@daheikkinen]

I recommend they start reading Proust at age 4

[@georginafinalen9176]

My biggest questions are: 1. can I walk to all places and take the subway with a stroller??? 2. Is open and safe the subway during the early night to go with kids? 3 is easy to take a taxi? (All in Christmas time)

[@Rapid-the-therian]

Thank you for all of your short and to the point videos!! You give fantastic highlights and great tips! I've used your videos for traveling all over europe. Thanks again!

[@ashutoshdwivedi6654]

Appreciate your hardwork👏 ❣️

[@MacTravellers]

Good tip on the cartoons! This works for many places.

[@LadyAuston]

I really like this! We have a baby and are figuring out how to travel with a child in general. Thanks for the tips!

[@brianboyd1239]

Paris with ones kids looks fun!

[@woltersworld]

It is

[@georgiancrossroads]

Mark something I highly recommend for children (ages 5 - 10) in Paris is a puppet show, featuring the little rascally character Guingol (pro: Geen-yol). There are several in Paris (and Lyon). My favorite is Théâtre Guignol Anatole at the Parc Butte de Chaumont. And it's a great park for strolling. Everyone will be happy there. And parents will enjoy the show too. Especially the reactions of French children to the show! Oh and please don't show the 'lovelocks'. They have already ruined one bridge in Paris. See the Honest Guides on lovelocks. They are not an old tradition. And they are also a tourist scam (being sold to tourists) and are a waste of resources and money. They weigh tons! No exaggeration. And they destroy the beauty of cities.

Great video! I just got back from a Eurotrip including Paris with my little one (18 months!) Can’t wait to bring him back when he’s a bit older. I loved that at some museums they had a dedicated special assistance line for disabled people and people with strollers etc! We got to skip a horrendous queue at The Louvre 🙊 I would say that timing museum visits for nap times, when that worked out it was happy days! And changing my mindset like I’m not going to get to spend too long here that helped me. Also the buses you can wheel your stroller right on instead of dealing with the metro steps. The Pompidou centre was really fun with their special kid area. Such a fabulous city!

[@graced_by_ebeauty]

Do you think 18 months was too young? My daughter will be 20 months when we visit Paris.

[@Charlotte-bc7vj]

@@graced_by_ebeauty I think 20 months will be great! he had a great time - I was exhausted trying to keep up with him. Definitely worth it!

[@graced_by_ebeauty]

@Charlotte 87 thank you! I hope my daughter does too.

[@AlittlebitofMari]

Thank you for this information

[@BronzeBellaBria]

[@lexcruise]

[@chosenone1242]

2:14 a man who has truely traveled with children.

[@Rachel-rs7jn]

That clip of the woman looking disdainfully at your son in the metro tho! 😂😂

[@Bodybeautiful]

Thanks for this video Wolter! I went to Paris this year but wondered if I should bring my daughters next year. Thanks for answering some of my questions!

[@andrewbennett6089]

Best tip: don't leave any kids behind or they'll be Home Alone.

[@AnthonyCasabar]

Thank you for this

[@LeoFtravels]

Thanks for sharing 👍, I'll be there next month

[@woltersworld]

Awesome! Have fun

[@vinceau808]

Any recommendations for Paris apartments for rent during our stay? Where to look? Safer Arrondissements? Many thanks in advance.

[@Foodieshub11]

Very good work mind-blowing presentation ❤️ Love from INDIA 👍

[@liewpg2266]

Do you think it is safe to travel around paris with kids using public transport ie metro and buses?

[@georginafinalen9176]

My same question!!!!!!!!!!

[@pratik954]

Thanks for the video Wolters, do you know if they have storage facility for folding umbrella stroller at the bottom of Eiffel Tower ?

[@danielmubima2991]

Great video. What hotel would you recommend for a family of 4 with a 9 and a 7 year old.

[@irenematranga]

Hi, I loved your video and I had already seen a more general video on travelling with children made by Jocelyn. Inspiring! But...I don't understand where I can find the activities you talk about such as the painting class or children's tours...

[@woltersworld]

we just search online and they pop up. There are pages that "collect" them like Viator or Airbnb experiences.

[@lauranglover521]

Are the kids free in museums? I'm going with my 14 yo in a couple of weeks. Love your videos- awesome info!

[@CliffLee-z7z]

Hello, I have recently found your channel and I am thinking why it took so long to find me your outstanding videos? You guys are awesome and had great content. Love to see some suggestions for kids friendly places in France. We are traveling to France in late May with our 2 kids (2 and 5 year) and just wanted your opinion if that can be doable? We saw your video about mistake to avoid and we wanted to spend more days in Paris. Day-1-5: Paris Day-6-7: Versailles and Lyon Day-8-9: Nice, Cannes Day-10: Monaco day trip Day-11: Return back Please advise because we have 2 small kids and suggest if we can omit some city but we like to go Nice, Cannes and Monaco for sure. Thanks a lot in advance

[@andreww9202]

Is it acceptable to ask for items like butter pasta in restaurants in Paris?

[@mdcoolcat]

Hi, do you have restaurant recommendation that's kids friendly and also French cuisine? All I got from kids-friendly-restaurants search are Italian / burgers...

[@josephusanthonybumaat9690]

Give kids a drop of champagne so they would stay still 😂

[@D4rthDuck]

Some advice, dont Wear italy branded cloth in the Capital of France when You do a Video about it

[@dunnyodonovan3947]

Why?

[@graadlon]

yeah why ? we love Italy here, they are great neighbours...

[@Indianinhelsinki]

Should we take stroller for my 4.5 years old son too???

[@woltersworld]

It's a lot of walking but kids love the metro. Our 4 year old would hop in occasionally when his little brother was in the baby bjorn

[@philrose7716]

How old are you kidd now?

[@user-ys4og2vv8k]

WALKING... hahaha. Americans and walking - two different concepts. Well, we Europeans are used to walking around our cities, but unlike Americans, this is a completely everyday task for us and we even enjoy it. 😅

[@woltersworld]

US cities had space so suburbs grew up around them and you have to drive to the store or work. It's a completely different set up. Like how Americans laugh at Europeans when Europeans get scared about a 2 hour drive and Americans drive 7 hours without even thinking it's even that long... and we are still in our same state 😀

[@sheilam9141]

Any hotel suggestions? We are a family of 4.

[@cillianwhelton5963]

From the recent champions league shitshow event most people think that paris is rough and dangerous now

[@woltersworld]

I was there a couple days before the game and the locals were not too happy

[@timglennon6814]

What Walter hasn’t said is that it’s expensive in Paris.

[@pat2562]

He has, it's not his only video about Paris.

[@danielleeming1027]

Why would that be something that needs included in this video?

[@aaronclift]

Paris is expensive, but there are a lot of things you can do there for free or low cost if you’re on a budget. His first name is Mark, BTW. Wolters is his last name.

[@joehoe222]

"With children." That hurt 😞

[@austinlance7206]

CHILDREN IN PARIS 😱
