Before leading his PSG teammates for the pre-match handshakes, Silva stopped to take off his training top and rap it round the little boy to help him keep warm.
For all Silva's kindness before the match, Lyon took the lead after half an hour before PSG salvaged a point through a Zlatan Ibrahimovic spot kick in the second half.
Laurent Blanc's side remain just two points behind leaders Lyon and level on points and goal difference with Marseille as they get into the second half of the season.
