    Hi
    Spending four days in SW5 next month and wondering where to try to see with two young kids (6 and 8)?
    The Shakespeare Globe is on our list.
    Any good museums to recommend?
    Or anything else?
    Are the sightseeing buses worth it?
    Thanks

    Natural History and the Science museum are both free and should have plenty for your kids to see. Next door to each other.

    V&A Museum of Childhood is a great museum too, that's in Bethnal Green.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    If you're going to the natural history museum at the weekend make sure you're there early as the queue's can be huge.

    Can you still feed pigeons on Trafalgar Square? I loved that as a kid.

    Ah dont do that. Pigeons are the worst.

    If you want to feed some birds go to the pond in hyde park. Plenty of ducks around. Usually plenty of squirrels around too who will happily take some nuts out of your hand.
