Even though the skies will stay mostly cloudy this week, temperatures will remain comfortably above 10°C - perfect for little adventures with your family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦. On Wednesday, young manga fans can dive into the world of Japanese spirits at Les Yokai de Shibuya at Bib Josse in Saint-Josse 📚🎌 - a fun reading club for kids aged 10 and up (17h–18h30). And for the tiniest ones, Thursday morning brings the cozy Babycafé in Wezembeek-Oppem ☕👶, where parents and grandparents can chat and play while little ones explore.

The weekend is bursting with excitement! From Friday to Sunday, science takes over Tour & Taxis for the I Love Science Festival 🔬🤖 - with robots, coding, and interactive experiments for curious minds of all ages. On Saturday morning, head to Ganshoren for Les Racontines 🦉, where Astrid enchants children aged 4–7 with magical stories. And if your kids love art, Sunday’s Street Art Tour 🎨🚶‍♀️ through Brussels is a colorful way to discover the city together!
