Creative workshops for kids: paint your own pottery or decorate cookies
For a calmer outing, nothing beats a creative workshop: kids paint a mug or a figurine, or decorate their own cookies, and leave with a keepsake they made themselves. Here are six spots.
In short: for a homemade gift, the pottery-painting cafés; for a tasty activity, cookie decorating at Café La Chouette.

Frequently asked questions
How long before you can pick up your pottery?
The piece has to be fired after the workshop, so you usually pick it up a few days later. Ask about the timing on site.
From what age?
Toddlers can paint with a parent's help; check each place's minimum age for workshops on its website.
Is it a good kids' party idea?
Yes: several of these workshops offer party packages.
