Eh? I'm not sure whose post you are responding to, but if it was mine, you "clearly do not know how much it costs"?
I have two granddaughters who have frequently stayed with my partner and myself in London, since the younger one was four.
I wasn't commenting on the cost of taking children out in London.
I was asking exactly what a holiday science club was doing with the children to warrant charging £242 for five hours!
You "clearly" did not read my post!
You don't have to take children on expensive outings. As you say, there are plenty of free/cheap things for children to do in London, and children enjoy choosing things to go in their packed lunch which they can carry themselves in a little backpack.
As for buying toys etc, you can give them pocket money at the start of their stay, to spend how they want, and if they make poor choices and then run out of money, it's a learning experience, isn't it.
And I suspect I am at least as old as you, and quite possibly older!
But in any case, Pugwash was not asking for general comments, s/he was asking for specific suggestions for a specific boy with specific interests.
