Things to do in London with ASD teen

6 replies

mum2three48 · 31/10/2024 21:15

We are in London at the moment staying near Waterloo station. We have around 4 hours on Saturday 11-3pm to kill. We had planned to go to the dungeons but ASD DD14 has decided she doesn't want to go. We've done the Tower of London, Covent Garden, boat on the river and seen a musical. We have another show tomorrow and plan to visit liberty's and hamleys before that. We visited Buckingham palace Westminster and houses of parliament last time we came so not looking to revisit them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Depends what she is into, we have just come back ad DD (11) loved wandering around Levenhall Market (used in Hatrry Potter films) there is lots to see in terms of Lloys of London Building, Bank of England, Royal Exchange, St Paul's etc and it will be relatively quiet on Saturday. You could also try and get tickets for the Sky Garden but I suspect that will be fully booked (it's free) but they do offer walk ins if space.

If she likes art how about the Tate Modern?

Depending on budget, London aquarium is great fun but a bit pricey

London zoo and the arcade escape room were a hit with my asd teen

My asd adult (with learning difficulty) loved up the Shard.

Carer ticket is free. Book ahead online but you will need dwp proof for carer.

After Shard, we went to nearby Southwalk Cathedral in search of Hodge the cat. A stray moggy that has made his home in the cathedral and the shop has Hodge merchandise.

We did find Hodge himself! If your dd likes cats, she might like to look for Hodge too.

And Borough Market is right there too.

Thank you all for your suggestions. We decided on St Paul's cathedral. She really enjoyed it as they gave out headsets to listen to and it wasn't too busy. We climbed to the top of the dome which was exhausting but definitely worth the views. Sat in airport lounge waiting for our flight home.
