Wondering what to do with children in the summer is enough to make mum and dad climb the wall.
But youngsters can do the wall climbing instead at the Mile End Climbing Wall, one of 200 summer activities being put on by Tower Hamlets Council.
Activities include adventure play, football, wildlife exploring, athletics, drama, theatre, family play, cooking workshops and even teddy bear picnics, all to help parents keep youngsters active from now and through the school holidays.
Weavers Fields playground in Bethnal Green has been fitted with new play equipment for children with special needs and disabilities.
All events will follow the latest government guidance on Covid-19.
