france Travel for Kids

Travel for Kids: France fun things to do with kids in France France, famous for painters, food, medieval cathedrals and much more. You may have been to Paris before, but exploring Paris with your kids will be new and exciting, as they uncover unexpected delights like a boulangerie with the Eiffel tower as bread sculpture. (It was delicious!) As you travel into into the countryside, kids can see for themselves the landscapes immortalized by the Impressionists, and let your children soak up the French joie de vivre. Tip: Don't miss our top picks for children's books on France, recommended by the staff of Travel for Kids, see below. Paris Central Ile-de-France The Loire – Orleans, Amboise, Loire chateaux North Normandy West Brittany Southwest The Dordogne – Lascaux, Rocamadour Languedoc-Roussillon – Carcassonne Southeast Provence Marseilles Cote D'Azur Nice The Cat Who Walked Across France Kate Banks, Georg Hallensleben Irresistible journey of a cat through France, past chateaux and shaded canals, dodging cars in Paris, roaming across lavender fields, to return to his home – a stone house by the edge of the sea. Fabulous double-page illustrations. (Picture book) Katie's Sunday Afternoon James Mayhew Little Katie gets in the picture when she climbs into a Pointillist painting, and joins the swimmers in the cool river. When water pours back into the gallery, Katie fetches a rowboat from another painting to rescue the elegant people in Sunday clothes. A delightful book for summer and fun for little kids. (Picture book) Katie's other adventures with French paintings: Katie Meets the Impressionists Paris Renzo Rossi Illustrated history of Paris, from Roman times when it was called Lutetita Parisiorum, down through Middle Ages with its glorious Gothic cathedrals, 17th century reign of Louis XIV, revolutionary times, Napoleon and the transformation of Paris into the one of the most beautiful cities in the world. (Picture book, fun facts) Eleanor: Crown Jewel of Aquitaine, France, 1136 Kristiana Gregory Fictional diary of 13 year old Eleanor – in just one year, she became Duchess of Aquitaine, then she married Louis Capet, and one week later she was Queen of France! (Chapter book) The Three Musketeers Alexandre Dumas, Deborah Felder Classic swashbuckling, swords-flashing adventure of d'Artagnan and the musketeers, sworn to protect King Louis. The musketeers uncover a plot by the scheming Milady de Winter and Cardinal Richelieu to betray the queen. Fun for new readers. (Easy reader) Kids will also enjoy reading the illustrated abridged version for themselves and listening to the audio CD . Or read the complete version out loud (fun for everyone in the family). The Orange Trees of Versailles Annie Pietri A fabulous tale of intrigue at Versailles. Marion Dutilleul, the gardener's daughter, makes exquisite perfumes for the Marquise de Montespan, favorite of Louis XIV, but Marion discovers the beautiful marquise harbors a dark secret. (Chapter book) Stone Soup Marcia Brown Coming into a French village, three hungry soldiers, returning from the wars, cleverly trick the stingy peasants into sharing their food in a delicious "stone soup." (Picture book) Betsy and the Emperor Staton Rabin Captivating novel of Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, in exile on St. Helena. Now a prisoner, living with a local family, Boney finds a kindred spirit in teenage Betsy Balcombe, an uncommon young lady, who plots his escape from the remote island. (Chapter book) The Magical Garden of Claude Monet Laurence Anholt Endearing story of a girl who thinks Monet is the gardener. Anholt's illustrations are seamlessly interwoven with Monet's paintings – you feel as if you're in the water garden, "where lilies sparkle bright as stars." (Picture book) The Impressionist Art Game Wenda O'Reilly Before you go to the museums, "Go Fish" for the Impressionists. The game is simple, but you really look at the paintings on the cards. The accompanying book is a readable, fun introduction to Manet, Pissarro, Degas, Morisot, Monet, Renoir, Cassatt and Caillebotte. Or, you can buy The Impressionist Art Book separately. Fun for all ages. (Activity pack) Sunday with Seurat Julie Merberg, Suzanne Bober "On a sunny Sunday in the park, families play until it's dark." Toddlers can touch Seurat's paintings in this charming board book, French family fun from the seaside to the circus. (Board book) And there's more in this delightful series: Sharing with Renoir , Dancing with Degas , A Picnic with Monet , A Magical Day with Matisse . The Truffle Hunter Inga Moore Adorable story of Martine, a truffle hunting pig who can't find truffles (a French delicacy), until she meets a wild boar in the forest. Charming illustrations. (Picture book) Monsieur Saguette and his Baguette Frank Asch Monsieur Saguette's trip to the bakery is full of adventure, in this whimsical tale of a delicious baguette. With the baguette, Monsieur rescues at cat in a tree, wedges it into an alligator's jaws, disarms a robber and saves himself from a flooding sewer. Playfully illustrated. (Picture book) Hot Air Marjorie Priceman It's September, 1783, and everyone's gathered at Versailles to see a new hot-air balloon with three passengers on board – a duck, a sheep, and a rooster. Hilarious and unexpected adventures of the animals on their flight over the French countryside. Exuberant illustrations, a delight for little ones. (Picture book) The House from Morning to Night Daniele Bour Peek inside a French apartment building, like a doll house. Each page is a different time of day – the baker bakes bread early in the morning, the family comes home for lunch, in the afternoon the concierge sweeps the sidewalk, the mother puts the baby to bed at night. (Picture book, reinforced pages) Let's Learn French Coloring Book Anne-Francoise Pattis Loads of fun pictures to color – from les animaux to le bateau (boat), le chat (cat), la fleu r (flower), seasons of the year, days of the week, animals and food.

FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Warm Weather, Vacation Attitude are Key Aspects August is normally a great vacation month, but in France (and especially in the north) it can be problematic. Most people get the month of August off in France, meaning you may find some shops are closed. Still, attractions are usually open and it can be a bit quieter than the rest of the year. The South of France tends to be quite packed this year, as many northerners head to the beaches. There is a festive, summer-vacation spirit here, and there are many festivals. Depending on your destination, the weather can be a bit too balmy, but it is surprisingly moderate in most of France. Weather The weather can be a bit extreme in August. There are major variations in climate depending on where you are in France, but here are some major cities: Paris : Average high temperature is 24 degrees celsius/75 degrees farenheit, and the average low is 13.9 celcius, 57 farenheit. Average rainfall is 55.2 millimeters, or 2.2 inches. Nice : Average high temperature is 26.7 degrees celsius/80 degrees farenheit, with the average low at 20 degrees celcius/68 degrees farenheit. Average rainfall is 31.6 millimeters, or 1.2 inches. Bordeaux : Average high temperature is 26.1 degrees celsius, 79 degrees farenheit, and the average low is 15 celcius/59 farenheit. Average rainfall is 59.1 millimeters, or 2.3 inches. Strasbourg : Average high temperature is 24 degrees celsius, or 75 degrees farenheit, and the average low is 14 celcius/55 farenheit. Average rainfall is 70.4 millimeters, or 2.8 inches. What to pack It can be challenging to pack for France, particularly if you will visit multiple cities. For the most part, this is a mild time of year. Be prepared for either hot days or cool nights, however. Your packing list should include: Sun screen Light clothes Flip flops Good walking shoes A bathing suit Get more ideas with my Packing Tips . Why to go in August Enjoy summer vacation the way the locals do The weather is warm All museums and attractions are open, usually with extended summertime hours There is a great vacation atmosphere Why not to visit France in August The closings! It can be a real letdown to find things shut down for vacations Airfare and lodging is expensive There can be some really hot days Events and festivals Bayonne Festival , which features bullfights, cow racing, dancing and a general festive atmosphere in this lovely Basque city near the Spanish border. Musique in Perigord , in Audrix, features young, up and coming musicians performing in the lovely Aquitaine countryside. Buzet Wine Festival Festival on the Champagne Route Cooking Festival in Pointe-à-Pitre Monte Carlo Internation Fireworks Festival
