If the weather is good, go to Coram Fields.  Big spaces, nice cafe,
extremely child-friendly, very near where you are going.

Also nearby is the Brunswick Shopping Centre which has several
restaurants - Carluccios has highchairs and baby-changing, Strada and
Nandos has highchairs, Yo Sushi has neither - and there's a Waitrose
and a Crussh bar if you want to grab some food and eat elsewhere.

If the weather is bad, I'd recommend British Museum for a nice place
nearby to do stuff.  I wouldn't recommend the food though - far too
overpriced and poor selection.

I used to live round there...
