Has anyone found anything fun to do in and around London for Feb half term? There doesn’t appear to be much going on when I google. The imagine festival at the south bank comes up a lot but it looks a little young. My dc are 5 and 7 and we live in Herts/ Essex area

There's a jolly postman exhibit opening at the postal museum

Anything on at Audley End?

I think that would be a bit young for the 7 year old. I looked at shows and Cirque du Soleil would be great but its mega bucks. I might just take them up on the train and go round like tourists on an open top bus, if the weathers not like this!

My parents are taking my 6 year old to the Pompeii exhibition at the Excel this half term.

The Pompeii exhibit is amazing. Have you been to Willows Farm, in St Albans? We were there a lot when mine were small.

Ooh both the Pompei exhibit and Vikings look fab! Thank you

Yes we have done many a day out at Willows and Audley End over the years. Both fab places

If they like Wallace and Gromit, the Young V and A has an exhibition opening - Bethnal Green
