'Travel With Kids: Paris' DVD Highly Recommended by Video Librarian

The Janson Media DVD Travel With Kids: Paris was highly recommended in a recent review by Video Librarian. This edition of the Travel With Kids series joins the Roberts family as they navigate and experience the incredible French capital city. From where to stay, how to get around, money saving tips and where to eat with the kids, this is an essential traveling tool for a family vacation to Paris. Full of beautiful scenery and goofy mis-adventures that come to be expected from this fun family, everyone is sure to enjoy Travel With Kids Paris.

Continuing to follow the Roberts family (mom, dad, two kids) on their European jaunt (see Travel with Kids: England and Travel with Kids: London, reviewed in VL-9/09), this guide for families visiting the City of Lights picks up where London left off, with the family taking the &'Chunnel&' (the tunnel train under the channel from London to Paris), where check-in security rivals that of an international airport. Instead of staying at a hotel, the Roberts" rent an apartment in Paris District 9 (the art district), from which they set out to explore kid-friendly sights such as the Louvre (home to the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, and other masterpieces). To make the museum visit more compelling, the parents create a scavenger hunt for the kids—giving them cards for each art piece to match up with the real deal. The Roberts" also visit Notre Dame cathedral, underground Paris (including a tour of the city"s famous sewer system), Disneyland Paris (which, after a shaky opening, is now said to be one of the biggest tourist attractions in Europe) and, of course, the Eiffel Tower. As with the earlier installments in the series, kid-friendly history lessons are served up alongside the advice for parents. DVD extras include a trip planner, family travel tips, and a bloopers reel. Highly recommended. - Video Librarian
