Free Family Days Out in London
|
Looking for a fun family day out without spending a fortune? Here are some of our favourite free attractions in the capital city. London has some wonderful green spaces where the kids can run around and let off steam. Get some fresh air and visit the deer in Richmond Park, feed the ducks in Hyde Park, play on the Pirate Galleon in Kensington Gardens, go to Battersea and admire the beautiful flower gardens, or take the children to Hackney City Farm, for a day on the farm without leaving the city. If the weather is bad, you can get hands on at the Science Museum, or learn about our environment in the Natural History Museum. Older children would enjoy a visit to the Imperial War Museum or the National Gallery, and The Museum of Childhood in Bethnal Green would make a fascinating day out for the whole family. Check out our list of fabulous free days out for the family.
