BellendenBear Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Can anyone recommend any play groups or activities to take a 2.5 year old to on Thursday mornings? Ideally I would like to tire her out ready for a good nap post-lunch. Needs to be somewhere where I can also bring new baby.I have been trying to find the link from the Southwark website for their activities leaflets (called 'What's On' or something like that?) but have failed. Can anyone help?Thanks Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/17380-things-to-do-with-a-toddler-on-thursday-mornings/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
flowermum Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Free activities or classes? Tumbletots is on at red post hill on Thursday mornings. You can bring a baby there (I do - either in a sling or sitting watching from the side in her pram) I like Little Bubbles classes too - http://www.littlebubbles.com/ There is bound to be a Bookstart session on a Thursday http://www.southwark.gov.uk/events/event/904/One O'Clock clubs are always an option too.Good luck tiring your 2.5 year old out!!

oldnewromantic Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 The soft play at Peckham Rye is good for tiring them out although a bit frustrating if they can't climb up to the top. Worth a try though. If you go at 9.30am you get until 10.50 for ?2. It's not too manic at that time either and the cafe's not bad.

BellendenBear Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 Anyone know if Bookstart at Albrighton is still running and whether they have re-started after the holidays?

akc74 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 There is a page on the Southwark site of Bookstart sessions (looks like the one above is on) - however those "Let's Go" guides aren't available/haven't been updated. Have emailed the council to ask about them...

Ruth_Baldock Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 BB, I'm hoping it's on tomorrow as me and my toddler and newborn are intending on going!

akc74 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 May try this too. Is it easy to find the Albrighton Centre? On the map it looks like you approach from Albrighton Rd, but just checking in case it's tucked away in the estate somewhere?

BellendenBear Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 Yes, it's really easy to find. On Albrighton Road, round building.

akc74 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Great, thanks.Also interested to know if anyone's been to one at Rye Oak school as that's slightly nearer us and I think they have one on Fridays. I don't really know what's involved (my 14 month old may be a bit young?) but am just checking everything out as the Autumn stretches out in front of us!

Inkmaiden Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 We've tried to go to the Rye Oak one a couple of times but it was full. The lady at reception said you need to arrive early as it's always very busy. There's also a playgroup at Goose Green Centre from 10-11:30am on Thursday, think it's ?1.50 entry.

anna_r Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I do tumble tots 9.30 with my 1 year old and 10.30 with my 2.5 year old...have often wondered if any of the other people there are on the EDF. I'm usually frantically trying to stop them going round the wrong way raher than chat but it would be nice to put some names to faces! :) were any other edf mums there today?

Ruth_Baldock Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Bookstart yesterday at the albrighton centre was really lovely- loads of toys, books, big soft toys. It's in a clean and safe space and the two ladies running it were really friendly. I'd recommend, will definitely be going again; seb got a lot out of it and even newborn Lex lay happily on a mat listening to stories/songs at the end. They've also got a big room at the back as a designated buggy park :) everyone was really laid back about sebs anarchistic tendencies, like running off to retrieve some kind of toy truck during the stories.
