Easter at Disneyland

Finally, both Kids are back to school from 25th. K then had fever on Friday 🤦 apparently from the heat her body has absorbed and physically exhausted throughout the 10 days Easter break . She is all good by now, waking me and the lil bro up before 7am to play 😴 


Throw back to the most tiring final days of the Easter activities happened on 23-24th April .


With past year's Magicarnival experience, Mr and I decided to make it a yearly fun time to stay a night at the Disneyland's hotel and joined the Easter Magicarnival. The package deal is way more reasonable during weekdays with a night at Disney newest hotel, the Disneyland Explorer's Lodge, 2 Magicarnival tickets worth $600 (we have to get extra 2 but at discounted price of $400),  dining voucher and discount coupons. 


Disneyland's Easter Magicarnival have over 30 activities, scattered throughout 3 hotels - Disneyland's Resort, Explorer's Lodge and Hollywood, so it's not overly crowded. They all have different themes of Bouncy Castles, DIY activity for Easter Egg related,  stalls for stamps collection to exchange a gift, Disney characters photo time. And each have special attractions, like the Hollywood's electric cars driving area, Explorer's challenge activities with Brave viking training and Resort's bubble music show ! 





We did online check in prior the day, picked up keys by 11.30 on the 23rd, drop everything in the room and left  to the carnival that's starting at 12noon. Kids had fun jumping in the bouncy castles, done all special activities including the DIYs, completed their stamp collection. After 4 hours of "tanning" under the sun, even though there's clouds and wind blew a little, we are all exhausted and dehydrated. Called it a day after buffet dinner at Chef's Mickey for D while K stays up a little later for the bed time stories. 




Next day is just sleeping and relaxing TV time in room till check out time at 11. We decided to go Disneyland before lunch at World of Color. The weather is great but too hot for kids to stay outdoor 🥵 we gave up after 3 rides and went to lunch before heading home.

Spartan Kids ! Aroo Aroo Aroo !

This year’s Spartan Kids race is over. There were one held in May, which ended terribly (refer to : https://fb.watch/9w7o6FVlPu/) . Then, another make up race was organised last Sunday, on 21st November. Now this is more like it !  There are 10 obstacles:  1. Over under through  2. Spartan sea 3. Muddy pit  4. Slip wall  5. Balance beam 6. “A” wall  7. Spider webs  8. Barbed wire  9. A frame  10. Log jump Kids love every bits! Well, almost every single one except the mud pit which got them in a little bit of a sticky situation. There are moments which I’d love not to forget, moments that my kids made me so proud of myself as a mother 😂  We joint the open category for age 4 to 6, which K is 6y2m and D is 4y8m. They have been quite an active kids, of course I have no doubt in their capability to finish the challenge. However, they do surprise me with their team spirits and sharpness at taking down each obstacles.  K shows her determi...

Tips: Hiking

Hiking with kids can be tough but we did it anyway, because it’s one of the best way to show kids the right way to care and love the nature. Of course, there are times where kids get worn out, feel bored or throw tantrums; but they develop new skills like observing plants and livings in nature, experience independence and trained physiques when they spend time outdoors.  However, heading into the nature with children requires some planning and prep;  1. Right clothing and gear. Layers of clothes so you could adjust for changing temperatures, weather and condition. Closed-goes shoes that fit well. Accessories like hat and sunglasses  2. Stock up your backpack.  Filled up with snacks for kids (something they’ll look forward to), plenty of water, sunscreen and bug repellent. Consider to let your young children like mine (4.5yo and 3yo) bring 1 of their favourite toy if it makes them feel better about the hike. And not forget the first aid kit stock with bandage, bite an...

The old school playground - Holiday Farm

Proclaim: I am not advertising for them, I am not paid to do this. This is just my review, my sharing, my experience.  Note: Mask on face at all time! Even when we are doing activities. Be safe, and don’t give a reason for these facilities to be forced to close too.  Holiday farm is a family run, educational and interactive farm situated in Sheung Shui. It promotes green culture and environmental friendly lifestyle hence being there do make you feel closer to the nature; especially with their originality on play equipments. Last holiday, we took kids to Holiday Farm. Honestly, it’s an exciting place to be, we have a wonderful day, from 10 to 5pm 👍 Kids love everything they saw! The treehouse slides, the horses riding made with recycled materials, the barrel slides, the “carpets” slides, each of these gave so much fun and create unforgettable memories.  The activities are divided into 2 categories, the generals (include botanic gardens, boat through the pond, rickshaw, gr...
