Bonus: Off course Le Jardin D'Acclimatation. Impossible to resist the charm of this park on a human scale, at once old-fashioned and anchored in its time. Since 1860, it has seduced young and old with its pretty carousels, inimitable guignol theater, and new attractions for thrill-seekers alike....

Exhibition: The Louvre A must, in the crowning glory of Parisian museums. For a visit without pressure, draw a lottery beforehand to choose a collection, a theme, an era or an exhibition. This way, we'll all have the same objective, and the quality of the visit will be more important than the quantity. In any case, it's impossible to do the whole thing in a hurry, it's too big :)

Bonus: France's most chic funfair, nestled in the heart of the Tuileries between the Louvre and Place de la Concorde, with the Eiffel Tower as background. Here you'll find all the must-have rides to scream with joy or fear, depending on your taste. A little extra: a Christmas market with every imaginable sweet and even a mini ice rink! It's a guaranteed hit with the kids.
