Paris for the day on a budget

Going to Disneyland for 4 nights on the 27th April, hoping to spend a day in Paris for a bit of sight seeing, can anyone recommend things to do apart from the obvious Eiffel Tower and Notre damme, not really into art galleries and will be travelling with a 4 year old. Is there any reasonably priced places for lunch in the City?

Thanks

Andy:)

    Take a boat trip along the Seine to see most sights without walking miles. Villettes Pont Neuf on the left bank have smaller boats rather than huge glass topped ones opposite. Metro/Bus Carnet of 10 tickets cost 14 euros, cover all of centre if you want to visit Eiffel Tower than go back to Notre Dame. Best stop is Trocadero short walk but you see fountains etc en route.
    Lunch could be baguettes from supermarket or store eaten in Tuillerie or Luxembourg Gardens. Cheap restaurant called Flunch close to Pompidou Centre also good creperie opposite fun fountains at the side. BHV department store cafeteria good opposite Hotel De Ville. Other places Sacre Couer/Montmarte to see street artists. Parc Andre Citroen have water jet fountains kids run through and get soaked, lots of small garden squares have kids play equipment.
    Pet shops near Pont Neuf have puppies etc for sale, don't suggest you buy one but will amuse 4 year old,
  • Thanks for your post gwynlas, very useful information, sounds great.
