Children proudly show their entries for this year’s Create Your Own Royal Flag competition.

As the experts in providing tours to London for families and children, London Magical Tours knows how sightseeing can be more even fun when the kids have something interactive to take part in.

This year, young guests at London Magical Tours have been getting creative and taking part in our annual children’s art competition. Among these is the Create Your Own Royal Flag competition, where children are asked to design their own royal flag – the more individual and unique the better!

Getting Creative with Royal Flags

Children taking part on our VIP tour programmes receive activity sheets, colouring pages, pencils and interactive challenges throughout their private tour. With support from a specialist children’s guide, they can learn about London while staying involved along the way.

For this year’s competition, children were invited to design their own royal flag. We’ve enjoyed seeing the different ideas and designs they have created, with every entry bringing something different to the competition.

The Children’s Programme is available for children aged 10 years and under.

More for Children to Enjoy

The royal flag competition is one of the activities available through our family friendly London tours. Children can also take part in our annual code-cracking competition, giving them another challenge to look forward to during their visit.

For families planning London tours for children, these activities offer a fun way to make sightseeing more interactive, while parents enjoy exploring London too.

Winners of both competitions will be announced at the end of the year, with prizes awarded for the most creative artwork and the fastest code cracker.

A big thank you to all the children who have taken part so far. We can’t wait to see more of your designs!

We are delighted to announce the publishing of London Magical Tours’ very own guidebook for children:

My London Magical A To Z Guide

My London Magical A To Z Guide

My London Magical A to Z Guide is the perfect accompaniment to our excursions for all family visits, allowing children to follow the landmarks on their tour through a blend of drawings and clever anecdotes.

Covering many of the famous sites such as Buckingham Palace and Hyde Park, the book also helps young visitors to awaken an interest in London life by introducing central figures like the Monarch and the Prime Minister.

As can be seen in the examples below, every one of the beautiful hand drawn illustrations has been inspired by the artwork of children who take part in our London tours on a daily basis from all corners of the globe:

W is for Westminster

Printed in luxurious hardback form, My London Magical A to Z Guide makes a beautiful souvenir, a memento for every child to customise with their name and date of their London visit to forever be reminded of their sightseeing experience.

By purchasing the book visitors also contribute to the Cartland Foundation, a charitable organisation which offers educational visits to children with the aim of opening access to science and the arts, regardless of circumstance or background.

The hardback is available to order online now priced at £14.99, a £6 saving of the normal £20.99 RRP. The accompanying audio CD with full sound effects and narration in the English language is also available for an additional £5.

To order your copy and have it presented to your child at the start of their tour, please add this to your total tour cost when booking online. Alternatively the books can be ordered separately for delivery to the UK, USA, Canada and countries within the European Union by completing the online order form:
