Things to do with kids in Camberwell
Camberwell makes it easy to mix a short outdoor stop with something more absorbing indoors. Around the Green, the library offers books, songs and early-years groups; the historic leisure centre adds swimming lessons for babies, preschoolers and older children. Along Peckham Road, South London Gallery brings free contemporary art, hands-on family workshops and a weekend garden trail. Choose one main activity, then leave room for a wander through a small local garden rather than trying to cover every corner in one visit.
