We’re having all 3 of them (8, 7, 3.5) for a few days in the summer hols.

We’re in outer SW London. One must is Bockett’s Farm Park - a great success with the 2 elder last year - any other suggestions that aren’t too far?

Not Chessington (too crowded, queues too long) and not the Nat Hist/Science museums/Sea Life - have done all of those in the past year, ditto London Zoo.

Would be grateful for any other ideas.

There are quite a few treasure hunts around London which are suitable for families and look great fun. They are also available in other towns as well.
