[quote=Anonymous]i think you will have a better time if you spent the entire time in either London or Paris with day trips from a home base apartment.   First, an apartment will be much more comfortable for your family than a hotel and you won't have to eat out for every meal. Second, there is easily enough to do in Paris and London to spend 10 days in each.  If you stick to one place, you'll be able to see more than just the main tourist attractions but also experience the city a bit.

For Paris -- My kids did not like Versailles and frankly we didn't like it much either - I don't think it's worth wasting a day on it.  Didn't think my kids were that into art museums but Paris really has some of the best - I think it's worth going to the Louvre or the Musee D'Orsay.  Other things for kids in Paris:  Catacombs tour, sewer tour, shopping at a street market, Bois de Boulogne (sort of like Central Park), Disneyland Paris day trip, Sacre Couer, Notre Dame (climb the stairs to see the gargoyles up close), Eiffel Tower (you can also walk up to avoid the line and for bragging rights later).  Just walking around the city is really nice and the whole city is very walkable. The Metro is super easy and convenient too.

For London - harry potter tour,  see Les Miserables or another musical, tower of london, British Museum is amazing, Tate Modern, Hyde Park, shopping at one of their big department stores, walking around notting hill.

Now I want to go with you!
