BEST FAMILY-FRIENDLY RESTAURANT IN HONG KONG

We love hanging out with kids at 208 Duecento Otto. During weekend brunch time, they convert their private dining room into a kids’ playroom with craft activities and toys to keep the little ones occupied while parents can relax and enjoy their meal.

BEST WALK FOR LITTLE HIKERS

The Peak Trail – it may sound super touristy but it’s a nice easy walk with amazing views of the city’s buildings as well as nature’s surroundings.

WHAT TO DO WITH RESTLESS CHILDREN WHEN IT’S HOT AND HUMID

Build your own obstacle course at home using furniture, sheets, pillows, cushions, cardboard boxes, etc and go wild. Kids love it when their parents play with them at their level.

TOP TIP TO KEEP LITTLE HANDS AND HEADS ENTERTAINED THIS SUMMER

Grab whatever dry food you have in the cupboards (pasta, spices, rice, coffee, sugar), colour on paper and, with glue, stick the food on to create your own works of art. It’s easy and fun.

ANYTHING ELSE?

We love letting kids run free. Take advantage of what Hong Kong has to offer, including the many public beaches, Hong Kong Park, and the Zoological and Botanical Gardens. It’s hot out, so just slap on the sunscreen, keep hydrated and enjoy the outdoors.
