Does anyone know if there are any activities available for toddlers ( under two ) over the summer holidays ?

I can only find lots of things for children 4+ years and all the usual paying classes for toddlers seems to be unavailable during the holidays .

Thanks in advance.

Some local children's centres are running summer activities such as stay and plays. You can find summer timetables for Ivydale (including one o clock club) and Bessemer on their websites. The programme for the libraries summer reading challenge also sounds fantastic, you can get a leaflet there or find details on the Southwark council website. More or less all free stuff.

Camberwell tiny gym is running, all summer except for last two weeks of August. So Thursdays at 10 or 11 and Saturdays 10.15 or 11.15


Also southwark let's go guides have their summer leaflets on line http://www.southwark.gov.uk/info/200246/activities_and_things_to_do/768/activities_for_under_fives

Hi


Thought I'd jump on this to let you know that The Creation Station is running throughout the summer holidays, as a mum of two myself it does seem that a lot 'shuts down' over the summer so thought I'd keep going......


We are at:

DKH Adventure Playground, Dog Kennel Hill, SE22 8AA on Mondays 10 - 10:50, from 28th July (tomorrow is the normal time of 10:30 - 11:20)

The Scout Hut, 212 Bellenden Road, SE15 4BY on Fridays at 9:40 - 10:30


I am welcoming children up to the age of 8 during the school holidays, don't worry about the little ones though as I will set out different areas for them to create.


Its ?8 a session, siblings ?6.50. I hope to meet some of you soon.

Hi,


I thought I'd also let you know that Rosie and Mae's Messy Play will be holding a Arts, Crafts & Messy Play morning 10am - 11.30am on Wednesday 23rd July at the Rockbourne Youth Centre, 41a Rockbourne Road, SE23 2DA. We'll be helping the children make animal party masks, sparkly bracelets and watches, having fun with jelly, foam, ice, sand, water & gelli baff. Along with lots of painting, colouring and sticking. Perfect for ages 18mths - 6 years. IF you'd like more information or to book a place contact rosieandmae@outlook.com

?6.50 plus ?3 per sibling

    • Gone to the better hunting grounds during this local ongoing dry spell.
    • The Dreamliner has an impeccable service history, you are more likely to get mugged on the way to the airport than having any issue with your flight, that's how safe it is!  Have a great trip.
    • Maybe. Does that kill grass? If so, possibly the same dog that has left its poo outside my house - pretty sure it's not fox poo.
    • Here you are, intexasatthemoment (you seem to have been in Texas for a very long time!) We went to three of the recommended places yesterday,  as they were all in the same road (just near Wallington)  and I needed to give the car a run to avoid another slap on the wrist from my garage (and another new battery). Here's my findings. BARNES Parking We thought we would go here first as it was the earliest to close on a Sunday (3pm). There was no apparent entrance or anywhere to park. One notice said do not park on grass verge, and another one said staff cars only! Flittons was opposite but I'd already passed the entrance, so I had to drive down the road, turn round at the next available place (covered in signs saying do not park here) and park in Flittons car park! Plants Barnes  specialise in hardy perennials, so that was basically what they had, but an excellent selection, and many more unusual plants (or at least, plants you probably wouldn't find in a garden centre), eg Corydalis,  lots of different varieties of Epimediums, Trollius, some lovely Phygelius, lots of different ferns). The plants were divided into sections according to whether they needed sun or shade or could cope with both. They had a particularly good selection of  shade loving plants. There was really useful information above  each group of plants, which meant you didn't have to look at individual labels. All the plants looked in good health and  very well cared for. They don't produce a printed catalogue, but they  said their plant list was online (I haven't looked yet). I assume most of  the plants they have at any one time are when it's their flowering season (if they flower). I wasn't intending to buy anything, though was very tempted, but I'd definitely go here again once I've sorted out my overgrown garden. Other Stuff Don't think they sell pots, compost, etc. No cafe/tea room and I didn't see a loo, but Flittons is just over the road. FLITTONS  Parking Easy to park Plants Sorry, but mostly terrible. There was one section with vegetables and the rest was flowering plants. There was a general feeling of delapidation. Some of what was on display was actually dead (surely it would only take a minute to remove dead plants) and a lot of the rest was very poorly maintained, eg gone to seed, weedy, apparently unwatered, or with a lot of dead leaves. There was a notice asking for volunteers to work there, so I can only assume they can't afford to pay staff. Other stuff There was a notice to a play barn (?) saying invited people only, so I think they must host kids' parties or something. They redeemed themselves with a cosy little cafe with savoury stuff, nice cakes, iced chai and oat milk, and a loo. Also a selection of books and CDs on sale for charity. If you want an Andrews Sisters CD, you can find one here. There is a small shop with gift shop type stuff and a display of the history of Flittons, which apparently is family owned since the sixties (I think it was). I suspect that the arrival of Dobbies down the road must have greatly affected Flittons' fortunes, which is sad. DOBBIES  Parking Easy in theory once you had navigated a rather narrow entrance, but it was very busy so it took a while to find a space. Plants  Lots of plants, well maintained but I imagine their turnover is high. Lots of nice bedding plants for hanging baskets, window boxes etc  to cater for all tastes (ie some of it wasn't mine, but fine if you like those horrid little begonias (my opinion only) but they did have some nice (in my opinion) stuff as well. I was tempted but decided to buy from North Cross Road market. Fair selection of climbers, various different Clematis etc. I'd be happy to buy plants from here. The prices seemed reasonable and they were in good condition. Other stuff  It's a big garden centre with all that entails these days, so a large area selling garden furniture and storage, tools, animal collars, pots, all the usual stuff you would expect. Very helpful staff. There's a cafe which we didn't check out, charging points for electric cars, a Waitrose (no idea how big, we didn't look). Only on our way out did we see that there was a drive through "express section" for compost etc, which was annoying as I wanted compost and hadn't seen any anywhere,  but I was getting tired by that time. Just Down the Road A ten minute drive away is Wilderness Island, a nature reserve in Carshalton, which is well worth a visit. We heard eleven different kinds of bird (according to Merlin) and saw a Kingfisher flying down the tiny river!
