Recently, we were at lunch at a lovely old restaurant in the 16th and our group of four adults and five kids took up an entire wall of booth and four tables. The waiter brought each of the children a madeleine, but our youngest (age 6) happened to be away from the table. When the waiter discovered our guy missed out on the treat, he took him by the hand and together they set off to get another cake. Wyatt didn't know a word of French at the time, but they managed just fine.

I live in a area of the country that is also very child-centric, so I take it for granted that there will be lots of activities for kids. Does anyone know how much the "family allowance" is for French families? Paris and San Francisco are certainly comparable in living costs.<br />Jeannie<br />365 Dresseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05370083544324974912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-10384532261631869862013-06-18T09:37:23.805-04:002013-06-18T09:37:23.805-04:00I think many of us are kids at heart--Joe is.

Huge maternity leave benefits, direct payments for third/fourth child. The population growth was stagnant, with immigrant population growing at a faster rate than home-growns. Gawd, as you would say, can't have that.<br />The culture is very child-positive, with all the programs you showed, and Creches for infants, pre-schools with professinal teachers, and children welcome everywhereAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-19027132867155708082013-06-17T15:09:33.159-04:002013-06-17T15:09:33.159-04:00Surprised and delighted that Paris is so kid frien...Surprised and delighted that Paris is so kid friendly.
