3 days in Paris for kids, a program
3 days in Paris for kids might be a tiring experience. But only if you go there unprepared! That is why I love to propose many schedules to enjoy Paris with all the family at its fullest!
3 days in Paris for kids, day 1
A very dreamy place to go to Paris with kids is the Opera. It is a fascinating and sumptuous building in the very center of Paris. It is one of the most loved museums in Paris from people of all ages. After that, I would go straight to the Tuileries to immediately live like Parisians. Tuileries is one of my favorite parks in Paris. There you can enjoy on the merry-go-rounds or you can have lunch en Plein air. I also love watching the crows and seagulls that are always flying around the park!
In the afternoon, I would go to take a walk along l’Avenue de Champs Elysees. You will reach the Arc de Triomphe, one of the most famous attractions in Paris to see in 3 days. After this long walk, you can go to the next stage: the Eiffel Tower. By getting off at Trocadero metro station, you will admire the Tour Eiffel from most perspectives.
Once you are close to the Seine, you are ready to conclude the first of your 3 days in Paris for kids. Before going back to your accommodation, you can admire Paris from the Seine by taking a Bateau Mouche. Seeing Paris from its river is an experience to do because you see and learn a lot by crossing the city!
3 days in Paris for kids, day 2
A 3-days in Paris for kids program can’t exclude a walk-in Le Marais and around the Ile Saint Louis! That is where you can find many landmarks in Paris. You can see the world-famous cathedral Notre-Dame de Paris. And, you can visit the Pompidou Center, one of the most beautiful contemporary art museums. You are very close to the Louvre too but I don’t recommend that museum for kids.
In the late afternoon of a day like this, I would go to Montmartre. You can take Montmartre funicular or you can reach Montmartre by metro and then going on the hill crossing little Parisian streets. On Montmartre, you can visit another of the most important attractions in Paris to see: Sacre-Coeur cathedral!
And, the plus experience you will join is seeing one of the most famous views in Paris!
3 days in Paris for kids, day 3
On the third day of your 3 days in Paris with kids experience, I recommend going to Parc de la Villette. It is a huge space where you can find many attractions for kids. The Cité de la musique is the biggest museum about music you can find in Paris. It is the place to be if you would like to know musical instruments’ history.
Close to the Cité de la musique there is the Cinema of Parc de la Villette. If you are lucky, you can go to some events in this place! Another attraction in Parc de la Villette is the City of Science: an interactive museum that always fascinates people of all ages.
After spending the morning in Parc de la Villette, I would go back to the city center, to take a last glance at the Eiffel Tower. Once you are in Trocadero, you can visit another fascinating museum in Paris for kids: le Musée de l’Homme. It is a museum about all cultures evolution. Two floors rich in objects of all eras will amaze everyone!
In the evening, I would go to the Latin Quarter. It is one of the most Parisians areas of the city. There, you will surely find a place where you can taste something traditional. And, it is very lively too! Just pay attention since it is very crowded but don’t miss the chance to visit such a beauty!
