Things to do with kids in Merstham
Merstham makes a useful small-scale family day: a play at the refurbished Rec, books and toys at Portland Drive, or a class at the community hub. The library has Tuesday play and rhymes for under-fives, Saturday LEGO for primary-age builders and a quieter additional-needs session later that afternoon. RSB brings ballet and street dance to the hub; South Merstham’s All Saints has its own parent-and-toddler group. Pack refreshments rather than planning around either café: the council pages still describe both hub and Rec provision as awaiting an operator or opening.
