Hi Firsttime, Geordie's tracked me down at last - I used to live in Queen's Park - now a bit further out at Burnside. Where are you?

There's a soft play called Whale of a Time up behind Shawlands arcade - I've never actually been, but I've heard that it's OK. I was also talking to some grandparents at the Glasshouse the other day who said there's a new place called 'Sporty Kids' down in Thornliebank - do you know the roundabout between Rouken Glen and Darnley Mains? Apparently it's in the Industrial Estate (sounds lovely...) on the rhs coming from Rouken Glen, next to the tyre place. Anyway, they reckoned it was good, perhaps more for older kids though (mine are 3 and 2). A few quid for a couple of hours, and there's a cafe.
I think they do Bounce and Rhyme in the library at Battlefield (Sinclair Drive, opposite the Vicky Hospital) - it used to be on Monday mornings.
I also used to go to a good playgroup in the Queen's Park church - the one right next to the park near the swings, called Playbreak. it's on Tues and Thurs mornings, 10-11.30 I think. The idea is to give mums a break, so they have 'aunties' who look after the wee ones while the mums have a coffee in the next room.
I like the Tramway gardens too - on Albert Drive. The cafe is good - it was shut for a while while they did the building not sure if it's finished yet. I also used to take DS1 to a music thing there on a Saturday morning when he was about the same age as your DS. It was only an hour or so - Colourstrings, songs and rhymes and stuff. I noticed that they were advertising a similar thing at the glasshouse the other day and I've been meaning to call the woman to find out about it but haven't got round to it yet.
We haven't done much organised swimming with ours, but I know the Gorbals pool does classes.
Can't think of anything else right now but will post again if I think of anything.
HTH.
