The Unicorn Theatre opened in December 2005, and is the first ever purpose built professional theatre for children in the UK.

Charles Dickens created some of the best-known and most loved figures in English literature, from Oliver Twist and David Copperfield to Pip, Miss Havisham and Magwitch.

But of all the characters he wrote about, none played as important a role in his work as that of London itself: its hustle and bustle, its glittering promise and grimy streets and the extremes of poverty and wealth experienced by those who lived there.

Harry Potter is the worlds' most loved story. Join the fairy tale with your kids, after all it is just around the corner!

Take the kids on a thrilling outdoor adventure at one of London's playgrounds, including Captain Hook's pirate ship in Kensington Gardens.

Finding an indoor pool where your baby can experience the joys of swimming for the first time will take a little research. 

We have some fantastic cycle trails right across London. Forget weaving through traffic and instead imagine the joy of the open road with no cars! You can breathe in the fresh autumn air on purpose built cycle paths, with your children cheering you on as you pedal away the stresses of daily life. If you have older kids who like to cycle on their own bikes (with or without stabilisers!) then all of our chosen routes are ideal as they are all on excellent paths with no traffic in sight. Pop on a helmet and get cycling!
