Hyde Park Winterwonderland - anyone been?

[Kammy]

Thinking of going in the holidays with ds (6). Anyone been and any views?

Went with dds 3 and 2 last weekend, was good. Lots of rides (£2) per go, a visit to Santa and a huge Ferris wheel. Didn't stay long as was bitterly cold, a fairly big ice rink but you have to book that.

I'm looking at this too. Anyone else been recently?

I went today (DC 8 and 5), we enjoyed it. A selection of rides for the kids to go on which cost £2 each (you have to buy tickets there)
Some stalls to purchase goods from, we didn't buy anything ourselves but there was a range of prices. Cute little reindeer keyrings for £2 each or 3 for £5. A reindeer skin which were priced individually. The one I looked at was £60! They also had bead necklaces and bracelets (for £1 each, puppets and wooden chimes.

A few places to get food from, mostly hotdog or burger and some drinks available too.

The ice rink was very busy, as far as I know you could pay for it there but the queue was very long. We decided to just watch the others falling over

After we left there, we walked down to Harrods and played with the toys. It wasn't too cold out so it was a good day.
