Some have even gone one step further, pushing the idea of making restaurants kid-friendly to the limit. Nowadays, it's not uncommon to find a play area for older children, usually with a library, a small play area for toddlers, or - the ultimate in kid-friendly restaurants - on-site entertainment, with coloring, a party, balloon sculptures, group games... Depending on the brand, your little ones may also be able to take part in drawing or cooking workshops at certain locations! In some programs and during the vacations, Parisian restaurants even organize spectacular events, bringing in magicians, clowns, storytellers...to keep young and old entertained all afternoon.
