Best Family Activities 🎉
Whether you’re looking for something indoors or outdoors, organized or not, London makes it easy to have fun with the whole family!
Springbank Park
Nestled between the river and Byron village, Springbank Park is the largest park in London and boasts prime spots for picnics, a great playground and the famous Storybook Gardens. During the winter, there’s also a fun skating trail, making the park a place to play all year ‘round.
Ivey Park
Ivey Park offers the perfect patch of green right in the heart of downtown—unless it’s spring, when the park’s cherry trees paint it pink with blossoms. As spring turns to summer, the splashpad takes centre stage as families drop in to beat the heat.
London Children’s Museum
Canada’s first Childrens’ Museum was started here in London nearly 50 years ago and is still going strong today. There’s lots of great programming and exhibits focused on dinosaurs and electricity and all sorts of other cool stuff, but ther “caves” will always be our favourite place to play!
The Factory
The Factory is home to Canada’s highest indoor ropes course, a 145 foot zipline, a trampoline park, Virtual Reality, an Arcade, a Warrior course and more! And for older family members: there’s a brewery and a distillery just next door at 100 Kellogg 🍻!
Childreach
Childreach is a non-profit dedicated to helping kids reach their potential, and aiding their parents along the way. With playgroups, parent resources and a slew of unique programming—like their WILD CHILD Outdoor playgroup and Infant Sensory Lab—there’s so much to take advantage of.
