East Ham Nature Reserve offers a multitude of opportunities for a family day out, or even if you just want a quiet stroll. The reserve is a haven for local creatures, and various trails lend themselves to insect and wildlife spotting, or you could just take a leisurely stroll along the trail that is accessible to prams and pushchairs. There are nature museums within the park - these arrange some activities during school holidays (phone for details). A trip here would be a great educational experience or fun day out for children, and the fact that the nature reserve used to be the largest churchyard in East London may add a little spookiness to the day.
