Top 10 Things to do Good for Kids in London, Canada
You’ll see double-decker buses and even the River Thames, but while London, Ontario, has clearly been inspired by its British namesake, this is a distinctly Canadian destination. Attractions like Fanshawe Pioneer Village, Banting House and Eldon House will captivate history buffs. Or indulge your, shall we say, slightly less cerebral side with a tour of the Labatt Brewery.

London's original premium real life escape game experience! Located in a prime spot , up to 6 players will be challenged in this new attraction by working together to find clues, solve puzzles, and pick locks that will free them from the game room. Do you have what it takes to escape?

I have loved visiting Pioneer Village since I was a child. It's a relaxing, fun day spent outside. You can wander the buildings as you wish and there are sometimes events and extra activities, as well as seasonal events. The staff is great and if you are interested, you can chat with them and learn so many things about history. It's a very good place to go to generate discussions with kids about historical life and show them examples in an accessible way. There are plenty of opportunities for photos of the houses, wildlife (mostly birds) and nature, farm animals, or taking portraits. I have taken my son since he was a toddler and he always enjoys it too. He is 6 and the last time we went, he didn't want to leave even after a few hours! It was not crowded at all (just steady) and very low key, which was great for a hot summer afternoon. The little cafe has just the right number of choices (soups, sandwiches, ice cream, etc.) and the food is always good. The gift shop has so many lovely and fun items in a range of prices that are very fair. It feels like being outside of the city even though it's not far at all. You can also go nearby to hiking trails, the campground, etc. I think almost anyone could have a great time here whether they are interested in history or not!

An awesome entertainer, with a great stage. I've seen various concerts here, in RUSH, Meatloaf; theatrical productions, such as Rent, Kinky Boots; figure skating including our own Scott and Tessa; and of course the London Knights.

This is a great place to visit for food and handmade items. There's a lot of vendors that sell fruit, veggies, ready made food, coffee, etc. There's also vendors who sell furniture, antiques, crafted items, etc. It's a very cool place to visit on a Saturday. The Fritter Shop is a highlight!!

I have posted earlier about what a treasure this place is. As of June 1 all vendors have been given the go ahead to come back. And the outdoor market is active yet again. I've been going every Saturday after the partial reopening. Really looking forward to when they're all back again.

Living in London and this year being cautious about where we go, it was our goal to explore some of the hiking trails in the city. We parked at the London Tourism Welcome Centre, 696 Wellington Road and walked in. After taking a pic of the map, we decided on the loop that circles Spettigue Pond. 4km in 1 hour, 10 minutes, at a strolling pace. I was happy that I wore running shoes rather than sandals. Lots of tree roots to step over in many areas. Very nice dock overlooking Spettigue to see the size of the pond and take some nice pics. Some small uphill and down. I wouldn't recommend walking here soon after a rainfall. Dirt paths definitely would be slippery.

I enjoy just spending time in the cathedral it is peaceful & loving, though I am Muslim. One of the oldest heritage buildings with lovely grounds and wonderful people caring for the place of worship. I live in London and see it always.
