Tips

  • Baby singing, open kindergartens and many courses take a break in the school holidays – check before you go.
  • Museums and play centres are busiest in the middle of the day. Arrive early, especially with a pram.
  • Many museums are free or cheap for the youngest – check prices for children under 2–4.
  • Check opening hours on the public holidays (Maundy Thursday to Easter Monday) – they often differ from normal days.
