When R U Going 2 Grow Up?

 With all the controversy surrounding the book, Bringing Up Bebe, I realized my favorite pics in Paris are of French kids.

 Bien-elevee o mal-elevee/well-brought or badly brought-up, there's something very appealing.

 And I like to go to kid places like Choco Story-Paris - Musee Gourmand du Chocolat 28, bvd de Bonne Nouvelle 75010
 

 And shoot pictures of French children's clothes.
 

 This trip I'm def going inside Bonton 5 bvd des Filles du Calvaire

 When I do shoot 'grown-up' clothes, mostly they're childish, not sophisticated couture. Hanging out on Avenue Montaigne is not my cup of chocolat chaud.
 

 Before there were macarons in my life, my fav Paris sweet was big tooth-breaking meringues. I've yet to try a Chupa-Chups lollipop - well-loved by many 'grownup' Parisians.

 I love shooting goofy French kid stuff like at Patchi chocolat 1, rue du Passy 75016

 I was thrilled to learn of a big exhibition of Babar at the musee des arts decoratifs - my fav musem.
 

 This trip I will NOT miss out on the musee de la Chasse et de la Nature 62, rue des Archives, another kid-friendly museum.
 

 I'm a huge fan of French kids books so I'll visit Salon du Livre 2012 (kids get in free).

My mom did not want me to grow up She never forgave me for not staying 11,12  😕 Maybe that’s why I ❤️ childish things…

 I haven't been to Le Bac a Glaces 109,rue du Bac but it's top of the to-do list. Have you?

All my life my father and mother used to ask,

"When are you going to grow up?"

I still haven't.
Got any fun Paris suggestions for the immature? Plenty ☺️

Paris Moms

 ALLO PB Moms!Are you out there? Do you want to know what Paris Moms are wearing?

And what Paris Bébés are wearing?

Les gosse/kids?

 Definitely les jeans.

Just like in NYC, Paris Moms push those pousettes/strollers every which way and you better keep your eyes peeled and feet out of the way or else.

Rather stylish too.

You can spot them a mile a way.

Paris dads know a thing or two about ice cream.

Some dads are famous pastry chefs.

Paris babes go early to the Salon du chocolat btw...

So many lecons to learn for Paris Bébés.

Life can be tough for the Parisien child - choices, choices.

Some French kidlets ride right into Patisserie Pierre Herme on their tricycles.
There are certainment some lecons to learn from these Paris Moms and Dads.

BONJOUR PARIS MOMS!
