Lovely if you fancy taking your little one somewhere a bit nicer than all the usual slightly skeggy kids’ haunts.
Parents
Kids of all ages will be spoilt for choice when it comes to keeping busy this summer. From immersive exhibitions and family days to urban beaches and museum sleepovers, we’ve rounded up the coolest activities for not-so-tiny Londoners.
The cats were of course all absolute babes, with favourites including Maine Coon brothers Jack and Jasper, and a Devon Rex called Trixie, who I’m obsessed with.
I really enjoyed the way the adults were utilised, be it as horses or glorified skateboards for the kids to glide around on.
This month’s picks include Kinska’s ceramic universe, Olafur Eliasson’s immersive world and a colourful family day at the Barbican.

Our waitress was adorable and even offered to cut up Babu’s croissant when I was busy feeding the baby.
Sticking three under-fours in an open-top boat with no one but ourselves to save them when we inevitably hit something felt like an empowering life choice.
I’d had some weird DMs from dodgy accounts asking if I “liked” newborn photography, as if it was something you just ‘liked’, like cats or ping pong.
Circus Dreams Families takes place in the same setting as most of my nightmares: a school gym.
