"When March dresses up like summer, April puts on its furry clothes", say the sayings of the months. Temperatures are easing, the days are getting longer and the fine weatheris (almost) back. So it's time to alternate between warm weather outings on cooler days, and outdoor excursions as soon as there's a bit of sunshine!
So, what are the can't-miss plans for March 2027? Between Mardi Gras and Carnival, with spring officially arriving, it’s the return of outdoor outings to discover blooming gardens, hike through the Île-de-France forests reachable with a Navigo pass, and re discover the region’s castles reopening their doors as the days warm up… But it’s also a chance to keep enjoying the best family-friendly restaurants and other kid-friendly brunches, to head to a workshop at a family concept space in Paris or nearby, etc. Without further ado, here are the family-friendly and free outings to do with the kids this March 2027!
