Are you and your little ones stuck for something to do this weekend?

This weekend is set to be hot with highs of 33 degrees, so if you do decide to enjoy the sunshine be sure to pack some sunscreen, plenty of water, and hats.

We also recommend visiting in the cooler part of the day to avoid the worst of the heat.

We have gathered together a list of the best children’s playgrounds in Greenwich that you and your family can visit free in the Greenwich borough.
