Hi moms!

I'm visiting from the US and staying in the Clapham Junction area. I have a toddler and I'd like some local advice on what to do for the next two weeks.

I'm especially interested in pony riding (for him), anything active or sports related, meeting local moms, and anything animal related or outdoorsy.

Thank you all in advance!

Mariah

Will you have a car? If so, go visit Deen City Farm, a short drive south, it's free. They do pony rides but I think kids have to be older (3+ maybe).

Also Battersea Park Zoo, pricey but good, easy to reach from CJ. And Vauxhall City Farm, I believe they have horses too.

Softplay at Eddie Katz (Earlsfield) or Bertie and Boo (Balham/Tooting).

Bertie and Boo cafe on Northcote Road has an indoor playroom - good for a rainy day.

Ducks on Wandsworth common (buy duck food at the very child friendly Skylark Cafe in the middle of the common).

Playgrounds on Wandsworth common, there are 3. And there's one on Clapham Common.

There is a drop in playgroup with craft and toys (indoor and outdoor) just off Chivalry road - afternoons and Saturday mornings.

Plenty of other playgroups around, usually in church halls. Try the one at St Marks, but it's very popular so get there early.

Various music classes, some run termly which wouldn't suit you but some offer drop in. Try Amandas Action Club which does drop in.

Have fun!

Wow thank you so much! I need to print this list because you gave so much great information! I'm excited!

I won't rent a car but will probably figure my way out on public transport. Looking to visit other areas of London too of course but figured it would be easier to plan kid activities in this area. Thanks again!!
