We're thinking of taking a 4-5 day trip to Montreal (or possibly 3 days in Montreal and then head up for 2 days in Quebec City?). It would be in April, so I assume it will still be pretty cold.

Any suggestions for things to do with young kids? Any neighborhood/activity/playground/restaurant recommendations?

Also, I've been to Montreal, but it was about 8 years ago and I don't remember--how much French is required to get around, order in restaurants,etc? Because I don't speak French. =)
