Useful summer fun

Snowboarder - tell me more - where in BP, is it free, did you park in BP car park etc??

Here.

It's in the Walled Garden - just next to the new water area. We parked up on the other side of the park on Brockwell Park Gardens by the top gate and walked over. It really was good (fro what could hear as was sat in shade feeding the baby for much of it!) - you start outside then go into the walled garden and move around the garden promenade style. Cannot believe Z concentrated on it and didn't belt off!! Not specially cheap (?7 ticket?) but quite an unusual thing and a treat and as enjoyable for an adult as a child!! (rare...!)

It doesnt say where but other similar things have been near the play area

I think it's suitable for quite young children .... There were lots of 2-3 yos but my 7m old wS quite taken by the instruments

Because the stuff they had was quite interesting, children tended to hang about rather than run off

Gazebo with badge making and painting

Mats, pillows, beanbags

Dressing up, instruments

All quite low key but it was perfect for a warm afternoon, we put our own blankets down and sat in the middle

Was just in Wells park, and chanced upon a sure start chuldrens centre open air session. Bit late for today, but next Monday 8th August, they'll be at Hornimans 11am-2pm.

They're calling it a community picnic. Basically they put out quite a few things for under 5s, and you just turn up with your own picnic.

Seemed nice, wish I'd known about today. They're there til 2 if anyone wanted to jump in a car with little ones.

Can vouch for Wind in the Willows in Brockwell Park. We saw it last weekend - enchanting. Ice cream and water park afterwards made it a special treat for the kids who were both (boys aged 6 and 3) entralled throughout the performance.
