For the family life that shapes you as much as them

Looking for the best things to do in Kensington and Chelsea with kids? As a local parent, I’ve brought together our favourite museums, parks, playgrounds and family activities, organised by age from babies and toddlers to older children and teenagers.

Having made Chelsea our family home after four years in South Kensington, I’ve discovered a different side of London family life. From the National Army Museum and Chelsea Physic Garden to the King’s Road, beautiful parks and favourite local restaurants, these are some of the places and experiences that make Chelsea special for children and parents alike.
