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, grind beans, hammock, treehouse slides, manpower bumper car, feed the animals etc) basically everything not blocked out by tapes or chains are available at all time; and the guided activities (such as hanging baskets, barrel slide, carpet slides, huge seesaw) which is only available from 1300-1500.

Lunch time is from 1200~1300. We brought little snacks for kids, and bought food from the cafeteria. The pineapple buns are good, and chinese marinated chicken wings / eggs, peppermint milk tea, taufufah are all mouthwatering. You could also reserves a traditional clay chicken beforehand.

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:...
