Autumn in Paris is a wonderful season. The trees take on warm colors, temperatures drop slightly, and the atmosphere takes on a special softness. If you have a little one, it's the perfect time, not to spend time in front of the screens, but to explore the city as a family and enjoy the special activities this season has to offer. Here are a few ideas for outings with your little one in Paris this autumn:
Public gardens
The parks and gardens of Paris are transformed into an array of colors in autumn. Take your little one to one of the city's many green spaces, such as the Jardin des TuileriesJardin du Luxembourg or Parc des Buttes-Chaumont. Your child will love strolling around and picking up a few autumn leaves as a souvenir.
Visiting museums
Paris is home to many child-friendly museums, where children can discover art, science and history in a playful way. The Musée en Herbe, Little Villette and the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie regularly offer interactive exhibitions and activities specially designed for little explorers.
The Paris educational farm
La ferme de Paris, located in the Bois de Vincennes, is the perfect place to introduce your little one to the world of farm animals. Your children can feed the animals, observe the chickens and sheep, and even take part in educational workshops on nature and biodiversity.
