Spoil kids rotten on a London break with a trip to child-only Tantrum on the prestigious King's Road.

The establishment opened as a hairdressers at the start of the year but has since extended its services to include manicures, pedicures and makeup sessions too.

It is divided into two sections: the first set in an enchanted forested with its own locomotive and the second - for older children - inspired by a pop star dressing room.

Bespoke party packages are also available on request, catering for newborns to 15-year-olds.

Throughout the pampering, young clients are kept entertained with magazines, personal DVDs or by playing the Wii. For the traditionalists, there is a good selection of old-fashioned dolls to dress up too.

For similar child treatments in the UK, head up to the Waterfall Spa in Leeds. The centre offers mother-and-daughter days called 'Me and My Princess' throughout the summer holidays.
