Harrow kids

Kids rule

We used our imaginations to think up ideas about what London would be like if children ran it instead of the Mayor and lots of grown-ups. Here’s what we came up with!

  • We could stay up late.
  • We could tell grown-ups what to do.
  • We could eat what we want.
  • What you could do would be different.
  • You could design your own cars and bikes.
  • Everything would be free.
  • You could stay up in the night.
  • No homework.
  • Kids would rule the school.
  • We’d be teachers.
  • There would be more art at school and more ICT.
  • The teachers would be children.
  • Funfairs would be for free.
  • You would have laptops in your drawer.
  • You would go to the computer room every day.
  • Children would do what grown-ups do.
  • We would have a food fight.
  • We would make the most intelligent and nicest child into the Queen and then make a statue of the Queen.
  • Everyone bad would go to the police station or be sent out of the country.
  • Your mum would do everything for you that you want.
  • Bad people would get spanked.
  • All the rides would be free.
  • No nasty grown-ups only nice ones.
  • It would be colourful and fun.
  • Which ideas did you like? Would they work?

What would you do if you ran London? If you can think of a serious way London could change for the better, then let us know. We want to hear from you.
