What to do this weekend: Check out Kids Etc.
The weekend is here (already) and the kids need to be entertained. Keep their little hands and minds busy with a visit to Kids Etc., a two-day festival focused on creators and crafts. Kids Etc. was dreamt up by Clémentine Marchal, the blogger behind Madame C, in an effort to bring together 40 + artisans and lovers of beautiful “things” for kids under one roof.
The event is open to the public Saturday, October 15 from 10 AM to 6:30 PM and Sunday, October 16 from 10 AM until 5:30.
Entrance is 5€ if you purchase tickets in advance or 6€ at the door. There will be snacks, a model casting by Kids Magazine and ateliers all hosted in a beautiful space in the 11th. If you want to do more than waltz around to check out and shop from the various artisans, there are three workshops each afternoon for les enfants and a weaving class for les adultes. Space is limited, price varies by atelier and there are minimum age restrictions so we recommend reserving a spot online asap. Keep those little kids busy this weekend crafting because you know what they say about idle hands…
