4. Various: My fave low-effort weekend spotsI love discovering cool new places and exploring with my kids but lets face it, lots of the time, I don't want the latest and greatest playground - I want the one which is easy to get to, has family dining options nearby, is somewhere I enjoy too and ideally with good coffee / shops that I enjoy as well. Here's a link to some of my classic lazy mom faves!

Hello Reader First red rain on a school day - I guess we're lucky that this year has had minimal weather related disruptions (so far!) but I am in awe of how HK parents deal with this on a regular basis during typhoon season! Thank god for condo indoor playrooms and light rain play π Anyway, here's my picks for the upcoming weekend - and another for a fun workshop in the future (putting it here now so you can sign up by the deadline) 1.

Hello Reader Who else has been enjoying the breezy weather and kids back at school? ππ»βοΈ Ngl, I've been a little quiet on the social media front the past month - trying to soak in the memories with my kids and also just pooped afterwards but now that they're back in school I'm gonna try a little harder (whilst still balancing the desire not to burn out creating content haha) so stay tuned! Also, I wanted to share something personally exciting for me - scroll down to the bottom to read more!...
