Is Kew Gardens worth visiting with kids?

Kew Gardens I would say. It has an excellent children area (free but you need to book your time slot online). The children's area has a water bit - maybe bring some back up clothes! Plus Kew Gardens is just wonderful to wander around and all the tropical houses are brilliant.
