This is not a list of child-friendly restaurants with crayons on the table. This is a guide for families who refuse to accept that travel gets worse once you have children.

I'm a destination wedding planner who has spent the last six years working inside Paris's most iconic Palace hotels — always with my boys in tow (now 2 and 6). We've experienced Paris across every season, and everything I've learned is distilled into 30 pages.

Inside: where to stay (including hidden gems that aren't just the obvious Palace hotels), how to navigate Paris by neighborhood, where to eat with picky kids, a five-day itinerary that works with little ones, the best parks and playgrounds, and everything worth knowing before you land.

Includes a Google Maps link with every recommendation pinned. Delivered as a PDF.
