Its our first day as a family (all 3 of us together at once) tomorrow in what seems like ages...has anyone got any suggestions for what to do with a one year old who is nearly walking but not quite i.e. wants to get out pram all the time but can't quite toddle on his own yet?


Thought London Aquarium might be nice but its nearly ?35 for the 3 of us!! Has anyone been, is it worth it? Seem to have exhausted all the local playgrounds recently.


Any other suggestions appreciated as really looking forward to some quality family time OUT of the house!

The Horniman and the aquarium there is probably just as good at that age as the one up town.....unless you've seen enough of it already and want to go further afield. If it's just the 3 of you and you don't get that so often, maybe try not to do too much or you'll spend so much time getting there and back etc that you won't have time to enjoy being together.

Thanks for that link I've had a look and we might do Gambado in Beckenham...

Yes you are right nunheadmum about going too far, nap time is 12.30-3 so doesn't leave much time for travelling...just selfishly want to make the most of this lovely autumnn sunshine before it goes!

London aquarium is fab and our boy loved it at that age. We went back again in the summer when he was 2 and it still held him mesmerised! Plus the stroll along the river is lovely with boats being a huge attraction as well as the entertainers, which is all free of course. Plus there is a playground there if you wanted to take a picnic. Understand the nap bit but we would go with the flow on days like that when it was rare for us all to have a day out. Nap in pushchair?? Or no nap at all and have some fresh air?? Have a lovely day out!!
thanks everyone, really useful. went to gambado in the end in the morning (chucking it down) and then nice stroll through dulwich village autumn leaves this afternoon. cheap n cheerful. those links look really good for future esp 2 4 1....will bear in mind for next family sunday ;-)

    • If weeds are allowed to grow for too long they lift pavements and create obvious tripping hazards. Obviously removing them from your wall and/or garden is unacceptable. 
    • This is NEXT WEDNESDAY 11 June! Just turn up if you prefer not to give prior notice! The Palmerston from  7pm, turn left as you come in! (If you have been hiding under a rock, The Palmerston is the pub on Lordship Lane on the corner of North Cross Road).
    • Yes, at first I assumed that the bin men had taken flowering plants from my front garden while getting at my brown food bin, instead of reaching over the wall. I was very confused as I couldn't see any obvious gaps. Surely taking Toadflax from a resident's wall is not part of the council's remit? What next, are they going to come round and trim hedges in front gardens? 🤬
    • Oh, so that was the council.  Someone ripped some lovely flowering Toadflax from our wall and threw it in the gutter.  I assumed that a child had done it.  How strange?
