Happy Spring month childcarers! And with the first rays of sun arrive the excitement of exploring Paris once again. Here are some suggestions of what is currently happening in the city to get your Dora the Explorer spirit back on track!
At the Movies
Spring is for afternoons out and evenings in (at the cinema!)

If however none of these strike your fancy, how about a time-traveling evening? At Fimothèque du Quartier Latin the program includes movies from all decades in case you missed the premiers, plus it changes every single day and doesn’t break the bank!

One of the perks of the city I wished I had discovered way earlier – the ClassPass app. It gives you access to most of the work out studios and all kinds of classes (Yoga, Pilates, Cycling…you name it); the first two weeks are a trial period so you can take advantage of some free credits and try it out, see if you like it! And if you do decide to renew your subscription, you’re still helping your savings account as the cost of each booking comes considerably down then if you booked each class separately directly at the studio.
💸: Free trial🙂
50€/60€ monthly (credits)
