I have an almost 5 year old boy and 2 year old dtr and am wondering what days/trips out we could do over the summer. The holidays are suddenly starting to look very long and I'm worried I will struggle to keep both kiddies entertained. Planning on booking my boy into Dulwich Hamlets holiday club for a few alternate weeks but really want to have some nice days out with both kids. We can travel by car or public transport but am at a loss as to what's doable so would really appreciate any tips from Forumites as to what is out there.


Thanks in advance!

There is so much on in London, a good place to start is with all the museums as they run programmes, the V and A have quite a bit on, as well as locally the Horniman.

Southbank usually does festivals etc

You can also go to ChildrenscMuseum in Bethnal Green, easy by overland, as well as Jeffrye Museum. (All have a childrens programme)

Dulwich Picture Gallery and park a good combo.

Artastic, who advertise on here do art days at Jags

dish and spoon (visit there facebook page) hold regular stuff including crafty cooks for pop in sessions


Good option to pick up the free families magazine as well as some of the local newspapers who will also advertise.


The what's on thread on this forum also advertises what is happening regularly.

    • @PenguinYou will have to explain this to me bearing in mind your and others outrage at a possible new scheme on Ryedale, and the use by many on this forum of Southwark News to support their reaction. I don't know what precautionary mindset means.  The precautionary principle is that we need to act now for example in tackling climate change rather than wait twenty years for conclusive evidence (that was the situation in 2006 when Stern published his report) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stern_Review
    • Yes, and their sister (?) company Inigo has some interesting Not Modern properties as well! Interesting as in marvelling at people's very varied  tastes 🤣
    • Is it possible for someone to change the heading, because it is not clear that this "fatality" has not just happened. I'm not sure that the OP still posts on here. Admin?
    • A couple of updates to this terrible event:   1) In 2021, two cousins (one from Penge and one from Streatham) were convicted of murder and sentenced to a minimum of 23 years in prison. The Southwark News has a summary of the awful day. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/dulwich/donnell-rhule-dulwich-knife-murderer-cousins-sentenced-to-life-for-killing-18-year-old/    2) Last week, a female prison officer from Forest Hill was sentenced to eight months in prison for pursuing a relationship with one of the two murderers while at HMP Brixton. https://metro.co.uk/2025/12/15/probation-officer-admits-relationship-prisoner-hmp-belmarsh-25501445/ https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/38203627/probation-officer-jailed-illicit-relationship-murderer-secure-prison/
