Term Break Holidays - ESF

Just wonder what you do with your children this week?  It is good that younger children can have a full week rest after the new start of the schoo which is quite an experience to them.  But... if you are both working and/or you dont have a helper this can be quite challenging as I dont think many people can take a whole week off.  Anyway, any suggestions for activities?  Many thanks.

We went to Tokyo. Weather is good and off season charge for package is not expensive. Just return last night.We brought our lap top computer. So my son needed to write his travel journal every night. We also brought some of his homework. He spent a bit time to do the work in a few nights  and while waiting in the airport - like yesterday we spent four hours at Narita Airport due to flight delay. So  quite a busy week (play and work).

Welcome to see my son's trave diary.

I arranged some playdates (normally in the afternoon) with his friends or schoolmates or invite his grandma & pa to come.  Then I took one day's leave to take him and his friends/schoolmates to the beach.  

Quite fruitful.

you can spend half day at the museum.
These are my son's favorite (even though he is 3.5 yrs) :
space museum
science museum
The museum of history
hertiage museum (shatin)
Railway museum (tai po)

<1 week school holiday is too long for working mom.....>
But it's also too long for a full time mom like me!  It's not yet 3:00pm and I am already exhausted!

My son is staying home and doing nothing. But he is asking me to give him some books to read, i.e. "Magic School Bus". It quite surprises me that he takes the initiative. So I pour out all the story books including dictionary for him. But tomorrow is another day.... 1 week school holiday is too long for working mom.....
