The Popincourt municipal nursery welcomes local families every Saturday morning from October 10, 2026, to July 3, 2027. Between 09:30 and 12:00, parents and children under 6 years old are invited to engage in a variety of recreational activities, including free play, music, arts and crafts, yoga, and parent-child dance. Located in the 11th arrondissement, this initiative provides a friendly space to bond and play. Participation is completely free and operates on a walk-in basis, subject to capacity limits at the facility, making it a flexible option for your weekend mornings in Paris.
Located at 13 bis rue Popincourt, the Popincourt municipal nursery is part of the citywide Les Samedis en Famille program. This initiative creates a dedicated environment for children under 6 and their guardians to participate in creative and physical activities together. The weekly sessions run from 09:30 to 12:00 and focus on developmental play, offering everything from musical exploration and plastic arts to yoga and dance.
Entry to the nursery is free of charge and no reservation is required. Visitors are welcomed on a first-come, first-served basis, meaning access is granted depending on the number of spaces currently available. This setup offers a convenient way for neighborhood families to access local facilities while enjoying structured, high-quality time with their little ones in a safe and supportive setting.
