Playgrounds are the kid-friendly outing that always comes in handy, especially when you're out and about in Paris and the little ones are tired of walking: a quick trip to the playground and off you go again (or not necessarily). Always popular with children, who can go from one climbing track to the next, from one slide to the next, and from one agile, motorized and adventurous course to the next, and with parents, who can look forward to at least five minutes on a bench, playgrounds are the kid-friendly spots par excellence, come wind, rain or snow!
With areas for toddlers( 0-6 years ) and larger playgrounds for 6-13 year olds (or older), it's a great opportunity to enjoy a family outing that's as playful as it is sporty, and above all, an outing where your children will find it easier to walk, since play is part of it! In short, for all budding little adventurers, fans of acrobatic courses, slides, climbing walls or truly immersive spaces, Paris, and more broadly the Ile-de-France region, has no shortage of playgrounds where you can spend an entire afternoon letting off steam and having fun! And what are your favorite playgrounds for children in Paris and the Paris region?
PS: the editors accept no responsibility if your children don't want to come home after discovering these great playgrounds.
