My Kids’ Basic First Aid Lesson

I do think it’s important for kids to learn or at least have an idea what to do when there’s 🚨 emergency, when the adult at home is not responsive 😵‍💫 , when they NEED HELP 🆘

Many might thought I’m overthinking, but hey, sometimes I’m not home and it’s just kids and helper, what if my helper is on the floor unconscious? Do your kids know what to do? I know mine don’t, until now, after they’ve learn to.

Super grateful to have found the BEST First Aid in Hong Kong ! Of course they aren’t the Red Cross or St Johns, but they offered basic course for young kids and if you have at least 2, they are willing to come to your designated place (eg at home).

My kids now know the protocol for emergency :

1. Check if the person on ground is breathing

2. Call the emergency services and intercom the security

3. Carrying out CPR only if the person is not breathing

4. Signal and knowledge on choking and what to do

5. How to handle burnt fingers or hot water pouring over one’s body

6. What to do when there’s a cut

7. Simple bandage and triangular bandage for fractures

Of course, if you can teach your kids at home, I’m pretty sure many parents have the knowledge of it. But if you would like a professional to teach them like I do, you could find one now ☝️

The course is just a 1.5 hours, conducted in English. I know they do it in Cantonese but that requires special arrangements.

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...

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.
