THE CITY OF SCIENCE
This family's experience:

Activities: We visited the Cité des sciences! We started with the Cité des enfants, which is divided in two parts, one for 2-7 years old and another for 5-12 years old. Then, we went to the library and finally to the souvenir shop

Highlights: The Cité des enfants was great. "There is a lot for everyone." The kids loved the workshops in the Cité des enfants. Also, the section of the water was great, it was very well done. My daughter loved it. The shop had "gift ideas to lose your mind." ✨
