A magical journey through an inquisitive child who embark into a series of Sunday drive with an imaginary yet, incredibly real friend: a Talking London Bus, a Routemaster Bus that has made the London Transport Museum as his home – across London to discover the city secrets and its mysterious inhabitants!
As you take a stroll around the shop, there is plenty of London inspired and Bus inspired gift ideas for Christmas!
Plenty of choices and, just like Beatrice’s says

“Model Buses are not just for toddlers!”

In this blog I’ll tell you about the best places and the most fun things to do in London!
The month of February is a very special month for us children because is half term! Yeah!! The city is full of 
wonderful events, workshops and activities for us! And I can’t wait to get there with my friend the London Bus.
For this post I have chosen 
THE SOUTH BANK
SOUTH BANK
a beautiful building which you’ll find by the River Thames just by the London Eye! The South Bank is a building full of artists who perform for kids and grown-ups. Sometimes you have to pay -sometimes you don’t.. and yes, some events are FREE ….which I like very much! I love the foyer in particular as it is a place where you can play, relax and have fun! Sometimes you can listen to music and see people dancing there! The 9th of Feb starts the Imagine Children’s Festival’
which will last until the 22nd of February.
Among the many events don’t miss (Tuesday February 3, 2015 South Bank) the ON READING AND
WALKING AND THINKING performance that last until March! Artist Emmanuelle Waeckerlé will walk,dance,
and draw through a world of words…It starts tomorrow at 11. For the events starting from the 9th you can
check the ALICE IN WONDERLANDS INSTALLATION and whorkshop- FLAMINGO CROQUET where you can play croquet with Alice in the Cloakroom – a famous actor with a long beard called Russell Brand will be there too! Here children can play the with the flamingo of the Carol Lewis book! Then there is OUR CITY; where you can pretend to be a MAYOR for one day. During this event, we children will be given the opportunity to present ideas to improve the city where we live. I love this one! I have lots of ideas for LONDON myself!!!.; Then  ANIMAL RESCUE Become an animal rescuer hero; during this event we children will be ‘given the opportunity’ to save an animal of our choice as per in the book by Patric George who tells us how we can improve the lives of animals. I’m going to save Pigs -because they are pink and are very intelligent and nice !! In addition to all the other animals, of course !! Then there is CIRCLE IN THE SAND presented by Half Moon in the Foyer Space – an interactive theatre where kids up to three years old can play and experiment with sand through castles, music and buckets ( Blue Room) And this is are just some of the event – for the music lover I invite you to come see SOUTH BANK SCHOOL OF ROCK in the Foyer Space and the Kids MUSIC LAB.
