5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it!!, May 6, 2009

By	M. Ekstrand - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Recently returned from a weekend trip to Paris with my husband and 3 year old. It was our first trip. While researching where to go for our short visit, I purchased a book called "City Walks with Kids. Paris." It was not a book, but was the size of small book with 50 small cards with ideas of where to go and what to do. The cards covered all the main tourist attractions and also gave recommendations for things nearby that were child friendly, including food. It helped me get organized for for my trip. Also, my three year old loved looking and talking about the pictures on the map on the back of each card. Didn't have to pack as many travel toys. He is a huge fan of the Eiffel tower now.

The maps on the back of the cards are nice, but I recommend getting a more detailed map of Paris at any newspaper stand when you arrive in Paris.

I highly recommend this book if you are traveling with children to Paris. Paris really is child friendly. I can't wait to return and will be bringing my "City Walks with Kids" with me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great and easy to take along, August 14, 2008

By	Leanne Edwards - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I travelled to Paris for two months this last spring with my friend and her two girls 4yrs & 2 yrs old. These cards were Great, we would show the girls what the picture on the front was, discuss what was there. Then we would plot our metro travel or walk and take the card along. They were great and accurate.
Of the 50 cards we covered 44 of the destinations... the sewers we didn't think would be of interest. The local people we met in the parks would suggest different things to do with the girls and there was always a card that covered that praticular suggestion.
I would Highly recommend these for all ages....

4.0 out of 5 stars A great "cards" information, April 20, 2008

By	Sheyla Werebe "SW" (Sao Paulo, Brazil) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It has great information! Fun to look for kids, very useful for adults, but remember it's not a book type material it's "cards" and I reframe that, because if you are subjected to custmons clereance in your country , you will have to pay "extras", because it's not considered a book.
