Am I bonkers for going central London tomorrow?

Debating taking DD 3.5 to the London transport musuem tomorrow but I’m worried it’s going to be absolutely heaving with families.
Would I be better doing something Christmas themed like the Christmas fair thing at the excel as lots of people seem to not like doing Christmas stuff after the big day?
DD has noise sensitivity and whinging toddlers is a massive trigger for her…

We're thinking of going up to see the lights and have a wander. Hoping that the engineering works on a lot of the train lines will put people off

If she has noise sensitivity I'd give both of those a miss tbh

The weather is causing havoc with the trains, check tomorrow morning.

Yes, London will be busy but normally not better or worse than any other holiday week.

If she is noise sensitive I would go during the week during term time to minimise the amount of people and be there when it opens.

If your daughter is sensitive to noise make sure you don't take the Central line between Liverpool St and Mile End....it's enough to perforate the ear drums!

We went a few months back during term time to the transport museum and was very busy!

The transport Museum is always heaving, and very loud.

Go to the Postal Museum. Brilliant for that age group and it will be much quieter
