London with kiddie winks?

*Funky*, 25 October, 2013 at 11:13 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 11

Nooooo! I have no plans to adventure into fatherhood ever.

My niece (4) and nephew (7) are coming to visit next month and it will be my nepthews birthday a couple of days after their visit so would like to take them out for a treat.

But where is the question?

The majority of places I can think of are outside based but if the weather is bad it is not ideal.

We can take a boat from our place (in Greenwich) into central or we have the cutty sark and museums etc in Greenwich but think they might find that a bit boring at their age?

The Southbank usually have lots on but if the weather is bad its not really ideal to be wondering around.

London Dungeons -Too young?

London Aquarium- they have been to sealife centres before, seen one seen them all?

London Zoo- Weather dependent

Taking them to a park - Weather dependent

Madame Taussauds (Sp) - Too young to recognise most 'celebs'?

They have done the science museum before any other museums interesting at that age?

Rainforest cafe for lunch/dinner could be an idea?

Any other suggestions?

    What about the Museum of Childhood, it's quite interactive. I reckon they'd love a boat ride too. London Eye? quite expensive though.

    Boat ride - Natural history museum - Olympic park (weather permitting ) for the adventure playground - maybe see if you can get tickets for a show? Charlie and Chocolate factory?

    My kids loved the Natural History Museum and the Tower of London. They also enjoyed the open top bus tours and Hamley's!

    The outdoor skating rink comes back to the Hatural History Museum this Thursday.

    And if they are crafty "kiddie winks" the art trolleys at the National Gallery or Tate Britain are great (plus the free workshops at NG)
