Is Crystal Palace one o'clock club worth going to?

[Bishberro]

I always miss the one o'clock club at Peckham Rye as my son sleeps between 1 and 3pm when it's on but noticed the one at Crystal Palace does morning sessions. I noticed you have to pay and just wondered if it's worth the drive? Is the indoor area good if it's raining and also is it open over the next few weeks over the summer hols? Thanks, couldn't find that much info about it on the net.

It's brilliant. Easy parking in carpark next door, lovely facilities inc tea/coffee.. quite a big room with art activities, playhouse, baby corner. Very friendly staff. The outside is big, partly shady, nice equipment .. whole place has a very peaceful air to it.

Well worth the money.

Open over the hols but there will be u-8s there so bit noiser than usual I suspect!

What time is the morning session? And what days?

thanks

My little boy (19 months) loves this group - it's probably his favourite. They do all sorts of activities and have a 'juice and biscuit' time where they all sit down together. They've got outdoor space too. Definitely worth trying.

Is this suitable for an older child? My son is 3.5 and we did pop by it on Tuesday morning but decided not to go in as it didn't seem that suitable for a boisterous boy of that age. Any ideas as I am keen to find somewhere on Tuesdays where he can burn off energy while I do something more sedate with my 10 month old.

Thanks

I take my 4 1/2 year old and 14 month old boys and both really enjoy. Probably not great to go when it's raining because it gets busy inside, but my 4 year old loves the outside bit, lots of space to run around, vehicles to drive etc, and he enjoys making things when they have the lego/sticklebricks out, or playdough. My younger one loves the freedom, he can roam around inside and out without me chasing after him, and it's one of the few places i actually get to sit down and drink a coffee, without having to get up and chase one of them. The mums there are really nice. Also has a nice baby corner for babies who aren't on the move yet.

Does anyone know how you would get there on public transport from Lordship Lane, Northcross Road end? Thanks

Take the 363 from Barry Road

Edited to correct above, the 363 actually goes from Peckham Rye (bus stop near the intersection with Barry Road)
