This is a ways away from all the major attractions, but so worth our time. The first time we went, the children's museum was closed for the annual maintenance. But when we went back a week and a half later, my son had a blast running through the maze or dressing up in a hard and building a city or being a car mechanic. You don't have to speak French to have a good time. Be aware that there are two sessions and once time is up, you have to exit.
