London can be known as being an expensive city. But once you arrive and have your accommodation paid for, there are plenty of free things to do in central London with kids. And even more activities in London that are free for kids with a paying adult.

It can take a bit of planning ahead, as many free activities in London still require you to book a ticket in advance. But from museums to viewpoints, and limitless parks and playgrounds, London can be an affordable family vacation destination!

Nothing will bust the budget more than unexpected costs like... lost luggage, medical emergencies, or sick kids that need to see a doctor while you're traveling! 
That's why I always use SafetyWing for travel insurance. Plus, for every paying adult, a child is covered for free! Their coverage is incredibly affordable and their coverage is extensive.
If you're planning a trip to London with your kids, be sure to check out this article for a list of everything you need to do to plan and prepare:

Free Indoor Things to Do in London for Kids

London isn’t exactly known as having the most appealing weather in the world. In our experience, London lives up to this reputation. One time, it took four days before we finally saw the sun. I was grateful to have free indoor activities for kids in London when the weather wasn’t looking so great. 


Natural History Museum

The Natural History Museum is one of the most famous museums in London. You know the one with the image of the dinosaur in the entrance? Yep, that’s this museum. 

Whether you want to get up close with dinosaurs, experience volcanoes and earthquakes, or awe over a blue whale model, your kids will find something inspiring to learn about.

Like all the museums in London, you’ll want to book free tickets ahead of time that allows you access during a certain time slot. Also like all other museums in London, they will ask for a donation with an adult ticket. You of course can opt out, though.

Additional tips for visiting London’s Natural History Museum with kids:

  • The dinosaur area gets busy quickly. See the dinosaurs first thing in the morning.
  • You can’t bring a stroller in. They will ask you to check it for a fee at the cloak room.
  • The museum offers a self-guided family-favourites tour.
  • If you take the tube to South Kensington, there’s an underground tunnel with very clear signs that direct you to an exit point right next to the museum entrance.
  • If your kids still have excess energy, the Science Museum is right next door.


Sky Garden

The Sky Garden is a free spot to get some fantastic views of London. You do need to book tickets around 3 weeks prior, and you can do that here

Your ticket is valid for one hour, and when booking your time slot, keep in mind that children under 16 aren’t allowed after 6pm on weekdays and after 9pm on weekends.

It’s recommended that you arrive 30 minutes prior to your booking to allow time for security and for the elevator ride to the 35th floor.

At the top, enjoy views of London. And if you want, you can grab a drink or a snack at the bar. But of course, that wouldn’t be free.

For backup locations for London views, you could check out the public viewing platform on the 8th floor of OXO Tower or The Gardet at 120, or One New Change.


Science Museum 

The Science Museum has some areas that are specifically meant for young children. So if you have toddlers or preschoolers, this is the museum for you!

For Little Ones

The Pattern Pod is a five senses area for little ones. There was a projection on the ground of fish that rippled when you touched it. A computer drawing screen for making mirror image shapes, some magnetic shapes, and a few other sensory activities.

There’s also a toddler area downstairs with water play. It looked really cool and much more extensive than the Pattern Pod, but it’s closed on Mondays… and we of course were there on a Monday! Don’t make that mistake.

For Older Kids

For older kids at the Science Museum, there are exhibits all about space and transportation vehicles that could be interesting. And there are some additional exhibits for older kids that you have to pay for.

Additional Tips for Visiting the Science Museum in London With Kids

Like other London museums, you must book a ticket ahead of time, and they ask for a donation with an adult ticket. The museum was essentially empty at 10am when we arrived (at opening), but by 11am was filling in. If you want the place more to yourself, earlier seems better.

Also, like the Natural History Museum, if you take the tube to South Kensington, there is an underground walking tunnel that will lead you right to the entrance of the Science Museum. Just follow the very clear signage.

For an extended list of free museums in London that could be fun for kids, check out the list at the end of this article.


Hamleys

Okay, Hamleys most likely won’t end up being free. But it is free to enter. We went there early in our visit to London. That way, the girls could pick out a new toy and have it to play with whenever we had some hotel time.

Speaking of hotels, we loved staying at the Premier Inn Waterloo! It is incredibly affordable for being in Central London. 
I love Premier Inn Waterloo because it's clean, quiet, they were very kind and patient with my children, kids eat free with a paying adult for breakfast (which was fantastic with plenty of options for people with dietary restrictions), and it was so close to bus stops and tube stations!

Oh yeah, did I forget to mention that Hamleys is a toy store? Some sources state it as the oldest and largest toy store in the world! Whether or not that’s true, it does have 7 floors of fun. You’ll find a guide that states which sections you’ll find on each floor. 

For example, there’s a Barbie section, Disney section, Calico Critters section, London section, etc. (Check out the photo below).

Hamleys Toy Store in London is a great London activity for kids as it has seven floors (seen here) of themed sections

There are also plenty of interactive elements throughout the store. There were employees  blowing bubbles. My girls got their nails painted and my daughter got her hair colored. There’s a life-sized bus in the Calico Critters section, and plenty of Playmobil sets to play with in the Playmobil section. 

Of course, when they got their nails done there was a sales pitch at the end. But I’m glad we didn’t purchase. The nail polish came off really easily and the glitter that was supposed to glow in the dark just didn’t. But it was a fun activity for them. 

And not to worry, there are toilets on the top floor. So you can spend plenty of time there without ever needing to leave! 🙃

Free Outdoor Things to Do in London for Kids

Changing of the Guard

The Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace is definitely a fun activity for the whole family in London. The free event starts around 10:45, usually on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. But make sure you check the ceremony schedule before heading out.

You’ll see the guards march down the streets, change locations, and play music like a marching band. Plus, there are mounted police for any horse-loving kids.

Changing of the Guard in front of Buckingham Palace - a free activity for families in London

Where to Watch the Changing of the Guard With Kids

If you want to see the guards change right in front of Buckingham Palace, you’ll need to get there very early to secure a spot. And be prepared to be squished as everyone tries to get a good view.

Especially with kids, I prefer to catch the guard en route from various spots. You can see them marching between St James Palace, the barracks at Buckingham Palace, and Buckingham Palace itself. You can see the full route at this website.

Changing of the Guard en route instead of in front of Buckingham Palace

Additional Tips for Changing of the Guard With Kids

If it’s raining, certain aspects of the ceremony may be altered. For example, they may not play music. Or sometimes the guards may even get a lift between locations! So even if you’re willing to brave the rain, the ceremony may not be the best activity for the day!

After watching the Changing of the Guard, walk through St James Park to see all the birds and friendly squirrels. There are bathrooms at the entrance to St James Park that cost 20 pence to use (don’t worry, you can still use contactless payment). The line for these toilets gets crowded and chaotic very quickly after the changing of the guard ends!


Hyde Park

While I don’t recommend the Hyde Park playground (it’s quite small and was very crowded when we were there), we did enjoy a walk through the Rose Garden and a picnic by the lake. If you do a picnic, though, be prepared to shoo away the pigeons!

Kids having a picnic at Hyde Park in London

Check out all the incoming pigeons...

You can also pay to rent paddle boats on the lake, visit the cafe, and of course stroll through more of the park. 

For a much larger and nicer playground, head over to Kensington Park to the Princess Diana Memorial Gardens Playground.


Covent Garden and the Street Performers

Covent Garden can be a good area to stroll, check out the street performers, and do some window shopping. As a note, though, it can get a bit rowdy even in the early evening on the weekends. I’d check it out earlier in the day or on a weekday with kids.

The London Transport Museum is nearby as well, which is free for kids but adults do need to pay entry. A lot of people like to find unique and quality souvenirs at the shop at the London Transport Museum as well.


Kensington Gardens

The main attraction at Kensington Gardens for kids is the Princess Diana Memorial Gardens playground! The Diana Memorial Gardens Playground is seriously a must-see in London with kids.

An enormous pirate ship surrounded by sand is the first thing you see upon entry. Beyond the pirate ship, there is so much to explore. There’s a little kid area. Another wooden play area, hedges that act like mazes leading to different play equipment.

A few notes to keep in mind - the hedges and “maze” aspect of the playground is fun for kids, but a bit stressful when I had just myself to keep track of two kids… one of them a toddler. When the toddler went around a corner, I didn’t know where she would end up. The more adults, the better!

Speaking of adults, they must be with a child to be permitted to enter the playground. This is fantastic for safety! There is a gate, and they simply unlock it if you have children with you. I did notice the attendant refuse entry to a few people. So good to know they take it seriously!

There are also clean bathrooms inside!


Millenium Bridge

The Millenium Bridge is a pedestrian only bridge across the Thames. But honestly, any bridge will do. I was also partial to Westminster Bridge, which provided fantastic views of Big Ben and Westminster Abbey. A was also partial to this bridge because it was so close to our hotel - Premier Inn Waterloo.


Check out landmarks from movies

Take your family on a self-guided tour of the “sets” from your favorite movies! As a quick note, you’ll likely need to take public transit to get from location to location because London is huge. Kids are free on buses and the tube, but adults will need to pay.

Paddington Bear

If your family likes Paddingon, you could follow a free written guide like this one or this one. It takes you to places like Paddington Station, Leicester Square, and helps you find the Paddington Bear statues throughout London.

The Parent Trap

If your kids are fans of the Lindsay Lohan Parent Trap, you can see the outside of Annnie’s house from the movie. In the movie, it is called “7 Pembrook Lane”. In real life, the address is 23 Edgerton Terrace. 

It is quite a small residential street, so honestly a bit awkward to take photos. But it was still worth the trip for my 7 year old. Plus, it’s very near South Kensington and all of the free museums there.

Harry Potter

Whether you want to see Platform 9 ¾ at Kings Cross Station (get there early to avoid a long wait for your photo!), or Diagon Alley (Leadenhall Market), or Gringotts Bank (Australia House), there are a lot of places around London to set you in the scenes of your favorite Harry Potter movies.

There are plenty of affordable paid tours available on sites like Viator. But you can also find a self-guided Harry Potter walking (plus bus and tube) tour here.

Mary Poppins

Whether your kids are fans of the original Mary Poppins movie or the newer version, there are a few sites around London to check out. You could check out the steps at St Paul’s Cathedral (Feed the birds…), the Bank of England, or even the Royal Exchange Building.


Borough Market

Borough Market is a historic market that dates back to the 1700s. Nowadays, it’s a free-to-enter market that offers up everything from food stands to produce vendors to coffee shops. It features gourmet goods alongside street food, and cooked lunches alongside fresh fruits and vegetables.

The stands are both indoors and outdoors, so Borough Market is a good option any day of the year. Plus you may even see some buskers during your visit.

Yes, you’ll need to buy anything you want to eat or drink. But if you’re already planning on grabbing some groceries for meals at your accommodation, this could be a fun place to shop. 


South Bank

South Bank is the part of London along, you guessed it, the southern bank of the The River Thames. Just taking a walk along the river provides for a few hours of free entertainment in London.

The Graffiti Tunnel

  • Stroll through the Leake Street Graffiti Tunnel (complete with a bar inside!). 
  • Spectate the skaters at the skatepark. 
  • Enjoy gorgeous views of Big Ben. 
  • Eat at one of the many food vendors along the Queen’s Walk. 
  • Stop and watch one of the numerous buskers. 
  • Have a play at the Jubilee Gardens playground (with the London Eye in the background). 
  • On a hot day, head over to the Jeppe Hein Appearing Rooms. It’s a water exhibit, though, so bring a change of clothes for the kids!
There are plenty of free parks to explore in London with kids, like Jubilee Park in South Bank

Jubilee Park in South Bank

South Bank is filled with fun, free things to do in London with kids. So plan to spend a bit of time there!


Big Ben Photos

I mean, it’s kind of hard to miss Big Ben when you’re in London. But you’ll want to get at least one perfect shot of it with your family during your trip. 

One good place to take photos of Big Ben is on Westminster Bridge. It does get busy later in the day, so I’d recommend heading there earlier in the morning right after brekkie.

A lot of people also take photos by one of the famous red phone booths across from Parliament Square Garden. This also provides a pretty iconic photo opportunity. Just take the photo from outside the booth! Rumor has it that some people repurpose the photo booths as urinals on their late night stroll home from the bars.

Watch the Tower Bridge Open to let a boat through

Pack a picnic and relax on the grassy steps of Potters Field Park. You won’t be alone in sitting around and waiting for the Tower Bridge to open. Yes, it’s watching a bridge open and shut. But my kids loved it, and I thought it was pretty fun, too.

You can check out the schedule for lift times on the days you’re visiting here.

Tower Bridge opening  is a free activity for kids in London


Get Wet at a Splash Zone

If you happen to be in London when it’s hot (and your kids are starting to complain about it), it could be a good time to check out one of London’s splash zones.

I already talked about the Jeppe Hein’s Appearing Rooms in South Bank

But you could also check out the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park fountains, which also features multiple playgrounds, gardens, a BMX park, and even the world’s tallest and longest tunnel slide.

Or consider the Granary Square Fountains at King’s Cross. Plus, while you’re there, you may as well check out Platform 9 ¾ if your kids are into Harry Potter.

The Kensington Memorial Gardens has a fantastic playground in addition to its seasonal splash zone. 

For a full list of places to get wet in London, I found this article to be really helpful.


Shoreditch Street Art

If your kids are into art and colorful things, checking out Shoreditch Street art could be worth a visit for your family. According to this map, the entire walk would be over three miles. But you certainly don’t need to do the whole thing to get a good taste for the area. 

Plus, it’s close to Spitafields City Farm, which is another fun, free thing to do with kids in London that I talk about below.


Spitafields City Farm

Spitafields City Farm is a fun way to see some animals and feel a bit more connected to nature without actually leaving the city. 

There are farm animals to pet, a play area, a garden, and an “eco hut” with puzzles and books for the kids. At times, there are kid specific activities. And if you don’t mind spending a bit of money on this free activity for kids in London, you can also visit the farm cafe and organic farm shop. 

Other city farms in London that are also free include Hackney City Farm and Mudchute Park and Farm. Vauxhall City Farm is even closer to central London, but isn’t technically free as it has donation-based entry.


St James Park

St James Park is the perfect green space to check out after watching The Changing of the Guard (another free activity that’s perfect for kids in London). 

It’s actually packed with an incredibly large variety of species of birds. I’m not really into birds, but I even loved watching the swans elegantly swimming beneath the parakeets flying overhead. 

Some people also brave feeding the friendly squirrels by hand. I prefer to spectate that one, though. 


Other Playgrounds

There are obviously more playgrounds in London than just Jubilee Gardens in South Park, the Princess Diana Memorial Playground, and the playgrounds at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park

Another large playground includes the one at Battersea park near the children’s zoo. This also happens to be next to the Battersea Power Station, which has (for a fee, of course), fantastic views of London from the top of a chimney stack. Just look for signs for Lift 109.

You could also hit up Horseferry Playground with views of Westminster Abbey, Marylebone Green Playground at the bottom of Primrose Hill (see below), the Alf Barrett playground near The British Museum (which is also free), and the Causton Street Playground near the Tate Britain (yep, free as well) also has a splash zone in the summer.

No, these are not all the playgrounds in Central London. You will likely stumble upon a few more on your way to or from other activities. So build in a bit of play time for every day!


Regents Park and Primrose Hill

Regents Park is massive and has something to do for everyone in your family.

The Marylebone Green Playground has three different themed areas: The Traditional Zone, the Art Zone, and the Natural Zone. It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area. And if your kids happen to get bored, there are three more playgrounds within the park and Primrose Hill.

There are multiple gardens to explore in Regents Park, including a rose garden (with over 40,000 roses!) and a Japanese garden. 

For a fantastic view of the city, head up to the top of Primrose Hill on a sunny day. If your family is anything like mine, that means you’re relaxing at the top while your kids are running up and down the hill on repeat… only to complain later that their legs are tired 🙃

Primrose Hill provides fantastic, free views of London

The view from Primrose Hill

I have to admit, visiting Primrose Hill was a bit of a highlight of our trip. It was one of the first times we had sustained sunshine. And after soaking in the views and breathed the fresh air, we went into Camden for dinner and had the best vegan pizzas and mac n’ cheese of our lives! (If you’re interested, it was at Purezza.)

Not-so-free activities within Regents Park include visiting the London Zoo, eating at one of the eight cafes featured in the park, rent a paddle boat, or check out a concert at the Open Aire Theatre.


Planning a trip to London with your family? Here are some of my favorite resources that I always use when traveling with my kids:
Accommodation:Booking.com because you can view reviews across multiple platforms, find hotels or vacation rentals, often find free cancellation policies, and frequently find sales.
Tours:Viator because of the wide range of tours, upfront reviews and pricing, and its one stop platform for tours across multiple cities and locations.
eSIM:Holafly because of its unlimited data, affordability, fast connection, and straight-forward installation process (even for the technologically challenged).
Travel Insurance: SafetyWing because of its comprehensive coverage, affordability (kids are free with each paying adult!), and easy claims process.
Digital Protection: Surfshark because of its affordability, ease of use, and ability to connect it with unlimited devices (which is especially important when factoring in kids!).


Things to Do in London Where Adults Need to Pay But Kids Are Free

Ride a Double Decker Bus

Kids riding a double decker bus in London for free

Another ride on a double decker bus

You can’t get much more iconic than riding a legitimate double decker bus in London. When we entered our London trip, riding a double decker was on our “to do” list. Little did we know that we would ride one every single day!

Except when traffic was bad (when we would take the tube), the double decker buses were our preferred mode of transportation to get anywhere in the city.

They’re incredibly easy to navigate (get the CityMapper app), my kids loved watching the sites go by (something you don’t get on the tube), and kids under 11 ride for free

For a list of other apps you'll need during your trip to Europe with kids, check out this article.

Just tap your credit card or Apple Pay, hop on, and head to the top! After all, who would ride on the bottom of a double decker bus in London??

Pro tip: Make sure you’re tapping the same credit card every time you pay. The system will automatically detect when you’ve reached a daily cap for public transportation fees!

For tips and tricks on how to navigate public transportation in London with kids, check out London With Kids: Tips and Tricks You'll Need to Know (Coming Soon!)


Uber boat

What’s better than watching the sites of London go by from a double decker bus? Almost nothing. But maybe watching the sites of London go by from a boat. 

The CityMapper app will include Uber boats listed as the “ferry” option to your destination when it makes sense. 

It’s a bit more expensive than the tube or the bus, but definitely an affordable way to get a boat ride on the Thames. Plus, kids under 5 are free. And kids aged 5 to 15 are half price.

Enjoy some of the most famous sites of London on your way to Tower Bridge, or maybe Greenwich park for a longer ride. There’s even a cafe on board if you get hungry or need a pick-me-up coffee!


London Transport Museum (free for kids)

If you want to enter the actual museum, adults need to buy an annual pass, but kids enter for free. I’ve heard of people coming here just for the store attached to the museum, though. It seems to be a good place to get some more unique (and a bit higher quality) London souvenirs.

Inside the museum, there’s a designated play area for kids called All Aboard. Kids can pretend to drive a real London bus, use tools to repair train cars, and climb aboard the Thames Nipper. There’s so much for kids at this museum, it’s worth the price of an adult ticket in my opinion.


The Tube

You’ll likely use the Tube to get around London to all of your other destinations, anyway. But what kid doesn’t love a train ride? Like the buses, kids under 11 are free. And like the buses, the Tube is incredibly easy to navigate, especially with help from the City Mapper app.

Also same as the buses, no need to purchase a ticket. Just tap your card or Apple Pay. If you’re traveling with kids, head to the handicapped gate so you can all move through together.

Taking the Tube in London is free for kids

Bonus List: More Free Kid-Friendly Museums in London 

British Museum

For kids that are into history, there are a lot of iconic artifacts at the British Museum. There you’ll find the Rosetta Stone, some Parthenon sculptures, and artifacts from Egypt, Greece, and Africa. Plus, artifacts from Roman and Aztec history.

Like other museums, it’s free to enter. But you’ll want to book a “free” ticket ahead of time, with a prompt for donation with each adult ticket.

To make the museum more fun for kids, in each room you’ll find QR codes that link to “museum missions” for the family to solve. On weekends, you can visit the Family Desk and get an activity backpack or a Museum Explorer Trail.

On certain dates, there are special “Little Feet” events for kids under five. And be sure to check their events page for other free kids events on school holidays or other special dates.


Victoria and Albert Museum

The Victoria and Albert Museum is an art, design, and performance museum. There’s also the Young V&A Museum, which I talk about below.

At the main Victoria and Albert Museum, stop by the Learning Centre to pick up family specific activities to complete during your visit. Also be sure to check out the events page to see if there are any free family events happening at the V&A while you’re there.

Unlike other museums, you do not need to book free tickets ahead of time to visit the Victoria and Albert Museum. Simply show up during open hours!


Imperial War Museum

The Imperial War Museum features war exhibits from the First World War all the way to present day. I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s appropriate for younger kids, but older kids into history may find some meaningful artifacts at the Imperial War Museum.


Tate Modern

The Tate Modern features contemporary and, yep you got it, modern art. Like other museums, it’s free, and you do not need to book a free ticket ahead of time.

For kids? Visit Tate Draw. A room full of digital sketch pads. Kids create their own art piece. When they’ve completed it, watch it be projected on the wall for all to see.


Grant Museum of Zoology

The Grant Museum of Zoology is part of the University College of London campus. It features skeletons and taxidermied animals from history and around the world. It’s also free, but not open every day. Check out their current schedule here.


National Maritime Museum and Playground

The National Maritime Museum is another free museum in London where you’ll want to book your tickets ahead of time. You’ll see famous captains’ jackets, a pocket watch from the Titanic, and other maritime artifacts from throughout history.

The biggest draw for kids, of course, is the “The Cove” playground. It features a pirate ship, a Kraken with his tentacles, and a shark slide.

The National Maritime Museum also holds regular free kids’ activities like art events, historical character encounters, and even story and music time for the littles. Check out their events page to see what’s happening during your visit! 


Young V&A

The Young V&A (aka The Young Victoria and Albert Museum) is full of interactive exhibits that are fun for all ages. It’s once again free, and you do not need to book an entrance ticket ahead of time.

There is a Play Gallery, which features building and creating activities. There’s also a special area for kids under 3. The Imagine Gallery features, yep, imaginary play activities. Things like a stage, doll houses, and puppets. The Design Gallery often allows you to watch a designer in action, and learn how design impacts every day life.


London Mithraeum

At the London Mithraeum, you’ll find artifacts and ruins from Roman London. You can find more information on their website


The National Gallery

The National Gallery is amazing, and features some very famous paintings. However, I wouldn’t exactly call it the most kid-friendly museum to visit. Which is why it’s this far down on the list. 

But if your kids are really into art history, it could be worth a visit. They also sometimes hold family events that could be worth checking out. Find more information on their website.


The National Portrait Gallery

The National Portrait Gallery has family trails and sensory bags that help to make the museum more fun for little ones. So if this museum is high on your priority list, it’s certainly doable. Plus, it’s free. But it wouldn’t be a top priority if you’re looking for activities specifically catered toward kids.


The Wallace Collection

The Wallace Collection features decorative artifacts from the 15th to the 19th centuries all set in a historic home. Think artifacts like ceramics, paintings, furniture, etc. It’s free and centrally located so could be worth a quick visit.


The Bank of England Museum

The Bank of England Museum features coins, banknotes, gold, and other artifacts centered around finances and money. Find out more information on their website.


The Museum of London Docklands

The Museum of London Docklands is all about the history of London as a port city. Find more information on their website.


Final Thoughts on Free Things to Do in Central London With Kids

If the weather is telling you it's time to be inside, there are still plenty of free activities for kids in London.

For free indoor activities in London, you could visit a free museum every day for over two weeks and never have to visit the same museum twice! And a lot of these museums have kid-specific activities and sections to make the museums less... museumy. In addition to museums, don't forget about Hamley's, and of course, checking out some viewpoints of London.

If weather is cooperating, there is an abundance of free outdoor activities in Central London for kids to enjoy. From fantastic playgrounds and parks to historical sites to movie sets. You and your kids will have a blast exploring all that London has to offer - for free!


If you want a budget friendly place to stay in Central London, don't forget about Premier Inn Waterloo. Plus, kids eat free for breakfast! And trust me, the breakfast is good.
