It's our last summer in London before we move overseas and I want to make it a great one! My boys are 3 1/2 and 6 months, so they won't remember it but I'd still like to give them some fun experiences in our home town, and some nice photos to look back on when they get older. I am from London so we'll do things like going to see where I grew up etc. So far we have thought of:


Corams Fields

Museum of London

London Zoo

Southbank

London Eye

Science Museum

Natural History Museum (the 3 year old LOVES dinosaurs)

London Transport Museum


I am wondering if there are too many museums on the list for a 3 year old...


My experience of London from a child's perspective is a bit limited to our area, so I'd love some ideas of other stuff to do. I do want to keep it London-focussed as we already have trips to Bournemouth, Cambridge and Norfolk organised.


Thanks x

    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant. 
    • Still, I guess it could be a lot worse than water being thrown at you by these numpty youths during these warmer times? thankfully it wasn't the more dangerous mugging type youths that crossed your path waving knifes and guns in your face!  just a thought? hopefully these muppets will get sorted by plod soon, but don't hold your breath. 
    • Another dramatic spike the previous May 24 -  both crimes around the car park -  could this be related to the massively increased numbers of people around Gala time?
