My 4 and a half yo son is not starting reception till we move to Devon at the end of the year, so I have him every day all day (as well as his sister who is 21 months). I am struggling to keep him happy during the week while all the other kids his age are at school.

I thought football might be an option but can't find any classes during the week.

Also any other suggestion for activities would be very welcome!

Thank you

could you not get involved in one of the forest schools or the home schooling network?


I had a similar situation with my son as I didn't want him to start until he really had to, ie age 5, and it was very difficult to find things to do. We ended up going to loads of museums - Greenwich maritime, horniman etc etc and making our own activities.

We go to this quite regularly and my son (almost 3) really enjoys it. The coach (from Millwall) is great and the games are lots of fun. From the Southwark Let's Go guide...

coffeelover - thank you. What day is it? Sounds perfect!

canela - yes, I am postponing the beginning of institutionalisation as long as possible and also would not want him to settle into a new school onto to move to another one after two months! And it is quite nice to have him to myself (although I feel I am going mad at times!)

    • https://www.letslinkuk.net/ I'm interested to know why the OP didn't find this sort of scheme to work, as I would have thought it was much harder to find someone to do a direct exchange with? Does anybody else have experience of a scheme like this? Happy to be persuaded! 
    • I personally think is a great idea Bobbly and would love if there was a section for it. I wouldn't offer free gardening under the "for sale" section as I would expect something in exchange and wouldn't expect our cat being looked after for free under the "wanted" section, as an example.
    • Looking for used decking boards. Should be hardwood
    • I have fond memories of Govinda's I used to go there  back in the 90's (maybe earlier) for an affordable tasty lunch..I was wondering if its still around. Now I have to make a point of going there. Does anyone else remember a really affordable basement cafe run by the church in a street off of Golden Square? parallel to Regent Street? I also used to love the Vegetarian cafe on Neal Street in the basement (Neal Street Cafe?) and there was an inczredible inexpensive authentic Japanese resturant I use to go to with my Japanese friends (who introduced me to it) tucked away behind Long Acre where that brown brick modern building ('modern' I think it went up in the 90's!) now stands that fronts Long Acre and Neal Street..I think it was called Asakasa or something?
