Children’s Playground at Hong Kong Park

We don’t live in Hong Kong Island but willing to travel everywhere just to play 😏 Few weeks back when we’re in Central, I decided to take them a little uphill to the playground near the peaks tram, which is located at the Hong Kong Park. 



If you’re coming by MTR at Central station like we do, take exit J2 to Chater Garden. Walk through the garden towards Cheung Kong Centre, direction to the peak tram station. Walk across the peak tram station (with cotton tree drive above) to Hong Kong Park Sports Centre, and the entrance to Hong Kong Park is right next to it. Walk up to the Children’s playground which is on the right. 



There are 6 platforms at different levels. Suitable for children from age 1.5 to at least age 8. The whole area is carpeted with rubber matting. Different levels have slightly different playground equipments. 





The lowest is sandpit with toddlers equipments (temporary closed due to the Covid-19). Next to it is the famous yellow  tunnel slide, walk up the stairs to another level that offers swings and outdoor playground equipments with poles. Another 2 levels are suitable for children at school age with climbers, slides etc. The top level is suitable for preschool or toddler, simple equipment with low level for climbing, slides, steering wheel and bingo blocks. 






Nearest coffee: Not that I’m aware of. 


Toilet: Public toilet near the entrance of the park. 


Shade: None. Trees are tall and areas slightly covered by the natural shades from trees and building. 


Enclosed: No. It’s hard to keep up if you have 2 kids running around at different levels. 


Mommy think: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kids think: ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ 


Opening hours: 0600~2200

Location: 19 Cotton Tree Drive, Central, Hong Kong

High Island Reservoir East Dam (萬宜水庫東壩)

A couple of months ago, I planned on an easy scenery walk with kids and their friends. We left home right after school, only managed to grab a bite on the way to Sai Kung. There are plenty of hiking trails waiting for us in Sai Kung but this time, we go for the easiest route, just a short visit to the East Dam.  It’s a reservoir formed in 1978, known for the volcanic rock columns and anchor shape sea barrier(錨形防波提), a breakwater. There’s public toilets right at the entrance to High Land Reservoir East Dam, along there’s information on volcanic rocks and pavilion. It’s concrete or asphalt pavements all the way down to the sea cave which is proof of coastal erosion (海蝕洞).  On your way down to the breakwater, there’s a gigantic wall of volcanic rocks, which is the hexagonal rocks columns! Its a 140 millions year old volcanic history. Along the way you passed the road with sea barrier (my suggestion is to spend time here on your way out), hexagonal volcanic rocks on your right a...

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...

Amphibians or Reptiles ?

Do you know how to differentiate amphibians and reptiles? Well, we learnt that (yes, even as adult, I learnt with my kids) at the amphibian classroom held by ki2zoo  Kids absolutely love the class ! They asked to have a pet gecko or snake few months back, but of course, mommy is no fan of cold-blooded pet, so I rejected 😂 Hence, they’re looking forward to this class, being able to held and pet those (in their word) “cute and adorable” little geckos and baby snakes.  The 1hour 20mins class time include introducing, little quiz game for kids, picture and petting time.  Kids now know that the 🥚 eggs for reptiles and amphibians are different, reptile’s is with eggshells and the latter lay eggs in water and covered in gel ; 🦎 reptiles’ skins are dry, hard and scaly while 🐸 amphibians are smooth and highly porous : and amphibians needs water in their habitat their life cycles involves that.  If you’re interested, I’ve gathered some information from the organisation:...
