Quarry Bay: Redress Secondhand Summer Pop-UpNot strictly a kids' event, but if you need to refresh your own wardrobe sustainably (or find some gems for the tweens), this huge secondhand sale has pieces from $50. Tailoring on-site too. Good excuse to teach kids about sustainable fashion while you shop. π Now to Sunday, 11am to 6pm π²Free! π βMore info hereββ 3.

My fingers are crossed! π Here's my picks for the upcoming weekend - proud to say I learnt something new today which is that dino fossils were discovered in HK (I'm picturing T-Rex roaming around Wanchai)!

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!
