cashewnut Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Can anyone recommend places to visit with very little children/toddlers that you can get to easily from East Dulwich (preferably by public transport)? Ideally these would be things that you can do in a half-day - before or after a lunchtime nap.We don't seem to last more than half an hour at home before we get bored, and we can't go to the Horniman every weekend!

lenster Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 185 bus to Vauxhall City Farm is a fab option. Small, but fun and about all my toddler could manage with the midday nap timings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmacnew Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Second for vauxhall city farm. Really easy on the 185. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeylover10 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Soft play at the National Army Museum - train from Nunhead, Peckham Rye or Denmark Hill to Victoria, then either walk from Victoria to the museum (approx 15-20 mins) or catch the 170 bus. Book tickets for the Kids Zone online - ?2.50. Can't go wrong! Bus from East Dulwich to Burgess Park to visit the 1st Place Children's Centre - they have a sensory room there that can be booked for an hour for free which is great for babies / young toddlers, a nice cafe and the park itself is brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cashewnut Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Thanks for these, some great suggestions. There must also be some places near the line through Blackfriars from Peckham Rye... ? The Wellcome Collection near King's Cross? (I seem to remember they have a rather exciting collection of forceps. Maybe in a few years time...)
