Discover story garden/trail - Stratford, E. London

[Pinotmum]

I can't praise this place enough. I visited it yesterday for the first time and the four children I was with (ranged from 2.6 yo to 7 yo) all loved it. If you're looking for somewhere to take the children have a look at the website www.discover(dot)org and it'll tell you everything you need to know. The staff are fab as well and so helpful to the children - I wish there were more places like this around.

agree - my 5 year old loved it. Would have been too baybish for my 11 year old though. I combined discovery with a trip to spitalfields market - something for ds and something for me - a perfect day out.

looks like fun. how long could you spend there and is there a cafe/restaurant there?

We spent 2 hours there and could easily have spent more time there but wanted to avoid the rush hour getting home. There isn't a cafe/restaurant but you can buy some refreshments. Alot of families brought snacks with them and sat outside as the weather was pretty good yesterday. Next time I go I'd allow at least 3 hours.

thanks pinotmum. will keep this one in mind for a possible day out soon
