To the sound of the Caterpillar, Baby Shark or even some Walt Disney cartoon soundtracks, it's undeniably the equivalent of our adult dance (and party) nights, but this time designed especially for pitchounes: if the boum was fashionable when we (adults) were younger, it's still the case, with the same ambition that persists: to have fun.
Often free of charge, sometimes offered as a children's entertainment alongside a brunch or a big event, boums are all the rage in the capital! Over the course of an afternoon, young and old alike get together to dance the night away, and take part in some great games to set the dance floor on fire. Every time, the boums offer sweets, drinks and snacks, with the most original including circus initiations and magic tricks. In short, it's an outing that's perfect for kids, and even more so for parents: so here's a list of our favorite family parties in Paris and the Ile-de-France region!
