Travelling down from oop north to SE London just now to pick up some car parts and brought the missus and 2 year old girl for an "afternoon in London!" Not being from "tut Smoke" what's worth doing or seeing on a Sunday, not too far off beaten track, M25 southern probabaly and into SE London?

Help a fellow PHer to not get grief off his missus and currently sleeping little girl!

Lil one likes parks, animals, cars, bikes, pretty much anything is exciting to her if it's a bit different!!

Not much really in that neck of the woods! (for the family)

For you though, you could visit Caterham cars, (Caterham) just north of the M25 junction 6/7. (one of the two)

Oh just thought..... Chessington world of adventures. (Epsom way)
Lego land (M3)
Bushy Park
Richmond Park (both have deers)

Feed the squirrels in Greenwich Park (they are that bold they'll come right up to you), or watch the kite-flying on Blackheath. There's also a duck pond there.

ETA: Greenwich Market is good for a poke around too. Some good wooden kids' toys to be had there and not expensive either. Also plenty of cheap(ish) cafes.

Having seen the other London with a 2 year old thread here, we went to Hamleys. It was 3 miles from where I was picking bits up from, so was spot on. We thought of chessington etc, but had only a couple of hours spare, so Hamlesy was spot on!

Hamley's is bloody awful.

The Zoo is great for kids.
