Things to do in Paris with a toddler

I am soon going to Paris for a few days with my 2.5yo. What would you recommend we do that is toddler friendly? I have been many times and don't need to do any of the adult stuff. Thank you.

The area around the Eiffel Tower, Champs de Mars are nice to run around.

There is a playground in the Jardin de Luxembourg, you need to pay entry fee but it kept DD amused for 45 minutes until the rain drove us out, she could have spend a great deal longer there.

Bois de Boulonge?

Day trip to Disneyland or Parc Asterix?

Great ideas, thanks! That should keep us entertained :-)

We've been to Paris twice in the last year with a 5-6 year old and a 2-3 year-old. They enjoyed:

Batobus on the Seine
The lovely parks and playgrounds, of which there are many (Parc Monceau, Jardin d'Atlantique on top of the Gare Montparnasse, Champ de Mars and many others)
Going up the Tour Montparnasse (the queues are much shorter than for the Eiffel Tower)
Riding in a taxi and on the metro
The Jardin d'Acclimatation in the Bois de Boulogne (there is a little train from the Porte Maillot to the Jardin, which is an amusement park with lots of rides suitable for toddlers)
Spotting windmills, riding the funicular up to the Sacre Coeur, and people watching on the streets of Montmartre
