Oxford Street goes Gatsby

Half term is looming, and it reminded me how fab London is, come rain or shine. There’s so much to do for free, and so much excitement to be found in even the most everyday places.

Take the Gatsby makeover of Oxford Circus tube station. Almost enough to make a commuter break out into a spontaneous Charleston, and definitely child-friendly (especially with goddaughters in tow on the way to TopShop).

As to more free stuff, here’s a blog post on Top 10 FREE outings for Kids in London

We’ll be back to the National Gallery this half term, and have also budgeted to splash out (no pun intended) on a trip to the fabulous Wetland Centre in Barnes.

Travelling with a family can be stressful. What country should you go to? What age is appropriate to venture on a family adventure? Is it best to go self-catered or stay at a resort? All these questions can leave parents confused about where to stay to cater to all the family’s needs.
