Hello Reader If I'm being honest - there doesn't seem to be that much going on this weekend π₯Ή aka - time to bring out the faithful standbys and some of last week's events that are still going on this weekend! 1. Wan Chai: SummerFest@WanChaiFree harbourfront fun - you know how much I like free haha! Details on their IG are still pending but last year's carnival looked super fun! Open all weekend. I definitely want to check this out soon before summer holidays start proper! π Sat & Sun, 1pmβ9pm More infoβ 2. Central: RebookedIf you're out and about at Central and looking for a quick space to dodge the heat with kids, try rebooked! It's a lovely second hand kids bookshop with very reasonably priced wares, and theres dedicated seating for little people to chill and read! π Sat & Sun, 10am-6pm More infoβ 3. Everywhere: Beach day!It's that time of year again! There are so many to choose from so I won't go through a list but make sure to pack sunscreen, beach toys, and lots of fruit and cold beer/rose :D 4. TST: Kid friendly HK Ballet's The Sleeping BeautyIf you've been waiting for the right moment to introduce your littles to ballet, this is it. Vladimir Malakhov's lush production has gorgeous costumes, Tchaikovsky performed live by the HK Phil, and according tot he programme its genuinely suitable for ages 3+. (Pro tip: the 2:30pm matinees on Sat/Sun are more toddler-friendly than evening shows.) π Fri 7:30pm; Sat & Sun 2:30pm & 7:30pm More infoβ β βοΈβοΈβοΈ Sharing is caring - forward this to a fellow parent friend who's looking for weekend ideas or tell them to sign up with their own email here! πππ Hit reply if you have any ideas for events / activities to include, or if I did a great (or π©) job with this week's recommendations Cheers, Lulu (@unaestheticmom42) |
