What options are there around ED for kids parties - I mean places that you go to and actually do something, like All Fired Up (daughter is not keen) or Colour Makes People Happy (absolutely brilliant but we were only there for a party a couple of weeks ago).


Not keen on soft play or outside adventure stuff.


Any tips?

Only thing with swimming pool is that (generally) if kids under 8 then you need one adult in the pool for every 2 kids - we had to do some serious begging favours last year to do this - this year have advised daughter that her birthday party will be after her birthday rather than the weekend before as then she and her birthday twin (in same class) will be 8 rather than 7! If you do fancy this, the Bridge in Sydenham does them and are good fun!

I've been to a bunch of 5th bday parties in the past few months and I think the most popular one was very simple - church hall with a hired bouncy castle and some organised games.


Rhubarb & Custard is also nice, I haven't been to a party there but have been for crafts sessions.

Vik - pop in and have a look. They've got this huge spinning thing that you put a large piece of paper on and then drip paint on it when it's spinning fast. Makes really great designs. The kids loved it and the guy that runs it is really nice. Great for adults too - I want to do one myself! The shop is amazing - it goes much further back than you expect. The kids loved running around the place and they had a long table out at the end for food etc. Worked really well.


My daughter is insisting on a pyjama party now so I'm working on that idea and will probably do it at home. Thanks for all your advice - very useful.

    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude. 
    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.   
    • I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.
