Day by day
Day 1: Arrival in Rome. The Trevi Fountain is especially beautiful in the evening, when marble figures and water gleam in the light. The square is narrow and crowded, so hold the children firmly by the hand. Throwing a coin over your shoulder is part of the ritual and children enjoy it. Afterwards a gelateria in the lanes does you good.
Day 2: Colosseum. The Colosseum is the highlight for many children: gladiators once fought here, and you can feel the size of the walls. A guided tour helps if it is child-friendly, but an audio guide is also enough. Hats, water bottles and sun cream are a must, because there is little shade inside. Afterwards an ice cream in the nearby park.
Day 3: Pantheon. The Pantheon surprises with its dome and the round opening through which light and sometimes rain falls. Children tip their heads back and marvel. The visit takes only a short while, so it suits the morning well. On the square in front, pigeons splash about and street musicians provide entertainment.
Day 4: Roman Forum. In the Roman Forum, columns, temples and arches stand in the middle of meadows. There is hardly any shade, so go early. Tell children about Caesar and the senators, and the stones come alive. Paths are partly uneven, and a pushchair is impractical. A drinks break at the fountain near the exit helps everyone.
Day 5: Spanish Steps. The Spanish Steps invite you to sit and watch, even though sitting there is not always permitted. Children count steps and wave to passers-by. Afterwards you stroll through the lanes with shops to Piazza del Popolo. Plan little on the programme, because the day is hot and the distances long.
Day 6: Castel Sant'Angelo. Castel Sant'Angelo is a round fortress on the Tiber with ramps, passages and a roof with a view over Rome. Children love the castle feeling. Later a walk takes you to the Villa Borghese, a large park in the city with a lake and rowing boats. Here everyone can run and rest briefly.
Day 7: Farewell to Rome. The Janiculum is a hill above Trastevere with a wide view of Rome. Apart from the climb, the place is quiet, with shade and benches. Children ride the carousel or watch puppets when a show is on. For the farewell, take in the rooftops and domes once more before the cases are packed.
