My son is now 1 but acts like a toddler, he walks, runs, climbs talks and is absolutely wild. Anyway for his birthday we took him to GODSTONE farm and they had an amazing soft play area for toddlers I was wondering if anyone had tried any in the area? I've heard of Brixton Wreck but I wanted reviews, can someone please point me in the right direction?


Thanks :)

We live softplay - we've been going since Baby belle was about a year.

Museum of London Docklands is our favourite - it's usually quiet, it's free, and it has a height restriction which means it is usually only open to those under three - other soft centres can be overrun with older children (probably more scary for mum than baby!)


We also like softplay at The National Army Museum in Chelsea - ?2.50 but you have to book in advance (tickets on sale a week before) and sessions sell out fast!


And the Science Museum is not softplay but has some brilliant areas - we love the garden in the basement, which has textured walls, great for babies to feel as they walk, a water area (bring spare clothes) giant soft lego area, and playmats. We spent three hours there this week.


All of the above are easy to get to with a buggy on public transport.we always make a day of it!

We like the one at Brixton Rec. During school hours it's nice and quiet and you can go in it with your kids so don't have to worry about them. Big enough to keep bigger kids happy too. There is a ramp for buggies to get to the main 1st floor entrance to the building (which looks a bit weird from the street, like a tunnel to nowhere.) We go there lots.
Cafe at little rascals seems to be closed for the foreseeable future - the sports centre management is changing & seems to be taking longer to handover than was anticipated. Go there for Bugglet's gymnastics & seems to be a feeling of apathy - the car park ticket machines are all out of order, so have to go & buy ticket @ reception which is a pain when towing a toddler in & out!

    • Genuine question- are wild flowers/weeds better for wildlife than cultivated flowers? My cultivated flowers and their seeds attract birds, bees and all kinds of insects, maybe more so than wild flowers.
    • Sue. It's a long journey trying to change the long established mindset that many of us grew up with, namely cultivated flowers are good and wild flowers anywhere other than in the wild are bad. My job as a child was to go round pulling up all the dandelions that dared to invade my Dad's pride and joy of a garden. I still battle with my Mum, trying in vain to convince her of the benefits of so called weeds in her garden. Her neighbours, all of a certain age, are the same. Anyone who doesn't attack any weed with gusto is the subject of Mum's disapproving neighbours. We can only keep trying to convince others of the benefits of these much maligned flowers.  
    • You might leave copies of this post on the windscreens of any cars that you think may have been issued with parking tickets before you saw the suspension notices being put up.  Include some contact details -- at least your forum username -- so that the owners can contact you if they wish to dispute the tickets on the ground of unlawfulness. Eventual feedback here -- presumably this would be evidence of a cancellation of any such tickets  -- would be very welcome.  
    • I've got more problems with people paving over their gardens, plastic grass and the like.  Perhaps see what Southwark say on line about managing their pavements.
