If you’re looking to let curious minds blossom while also letting little legs run off some energy, the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew are a great option. Founded in 1840, it is now London’s largest UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to a large range of plants, trees and fungi. Covering 132 hectares, you would need days, if not weeks, to explore all they have to offer. Put aside a full day, however, and you will certainly enjoy Kew’s main highlights.
MFM reviewer Anna says: “My kids love running around, so the wide open spaces and differently arranged gardens were heaven for them. We liked that there are so many different areas that you can explore, where you can get away from the main crowds and let the kids roam.” For younger ones there’s the magical children’s garden as well as the brilliant Treetop Walkway that travels through the tree canopy at a height of 18 metres. Other must-sees include the historic Palm House with its exotic rainforest; Kew Palace, the former summer residence of King George III, and The Hive, a multi-sensory experience designed to highlight the extraordinary life of bees.
Regular family events take place at Kew Gardens, particularly during the school holidays. Don't miss the fantastical light trail at Christmas. Some 75% of almost 9,000 reviews on TripAdvisor rate it very good or excellent, with one saying: “We recently visited with our adult children, our 3-year-old granddaughter and long-time friends. The children's play area is wonderful! There is an indoor and an outdoor section, with plenty of creative, plant-themed play structures.
