Sooper Yoo

Totally missed this one out 😂 We were there before indoor playhouse required vaccine pass (VP) for kids under 12. Having a 10,000 square foot space, Sooper Yoo offers a place to explore, climb, learn and play. There are different areas and sections, the first 2 are my kids’ favourite 1. Scramble Course is a 2-3 level maze with slides, climbers and obstacles along the way 2. Yoozoo Racer is an interactive game where kids run alongside animated animals to test their running speed on track 3. Sooper Slap is a game to test their agility and reaction 4. VR cave is pretty common now, virtual world with games, kids basically just smacking the wall to hit the target There are other like Formula Yoo Sooper Loop (race remote control cars by riding the bike, for kids 130cm and above), Sooper Kix (a VR version of soccer game) and Digi Decks (table games on digital). Kids think: ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Mom thinks: ⭐️ ⭐️ Well, it’s clean and new and fancy but it’s a been there done that thing for us. I highly doubt it’s for age 4 to 17. More likely suitable for age 4 to 8. Although we prefer outdoor activities, I understand there are parents who feel more comfortable and safer being indoors, especially when the adults taking kids to play are grandparents or helpers.

Museum of Climate Change (MoCC)

Located on the Chinese University Campus, the Jockey Club Museum of Climate Change is sure to be one of our surprisingly good and worthwhile places to be. Established to raise public awareness of the impact of global warming, hence climate changes. It is divided into four sections: Polar Gallery, Remote Sensing and Environmental monitoring, research and innovation, green gallery. I couldn’t decide which section are kids favourite because they spent equally long at each. The collections at Polar Gallery shows the effects of global warming and climate change resulting ice melting at the poles, where life of polar bears are on the line. The remote sensing and environment monitoring definitely further explain and strengthen the ideas through videos and photos, along with some interactive multimedia presentations of different environmental and climate information. Kids were impressed with the application of geographic information in how the Earth is changing over years. Research and innovation section probably the least attractive one for my kids. And I don’t blame them because it’s sure not something their age ( a 5.5yo and 7yo) would understand. I tried explaining but there’s just too specific and too much for kids to understand the research developments and technology advances in these field. The last section, which is the green gallery, push hard on the idea “environmental efforts require community’s support”. With multimedia interactive exhibits and games, it promotes and aims to have the community get involved in waste reduction, sustainable and live a greener lifestyle.

UREC’s exhibition

Came across the Urban Renewal Exploration Centre(UREC 市區更新探知館) website and found out their exhibitions on dilapidated housing alongside the walls full of information about the urban renewal in Hong Kong including problems of urban decay and work of URA in reserve, redevelopment, rehabilitation and revitalisation. The exhibit caught my attention with the presentation of real life experience of dilapidated housing with small cubicles home, the famous caged homes, the less humane cockloft, the toilet and kitchen areas to be shared; giving us a better understanding of the poor living conditions in older districts. I learnt that some exhibits are collected from the authentic premises in the old districts. Everything is surreal. After visiting, I do think it provide some insight and allow visitors to understand urban renewal issues from different perspectives. Most of the children these days are blessed. They’ve never see a lot of things, not even the housing or livings of the poor or less fortunate. Exhibitions like this not only giving them ideas, providing them the opportunity to look closer and imagine the lifestyle; it allows them to understand the importance of reserves, redevelopment, rehabilitation and revitalisation of the urban. It’s free of charge and all tours are by appointment only. Age : Primary and above. Guided tour: Mon – Fri (except public holidays) 10:00 am to 12:00 pm & 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm Audio guided tour: Mon – Fri (except public holidays)12:30pm to 2:00pm Book via https://www.urec.org.hk/urec/about/ x #urbandecay #redevelopment #urbanrenewal #urec #hongkong #hkkids #hkblogger #hongkongmom #hongkongparents #exhibition #hkurban #experience #afterschoolactivities #hongkongtour #understanding #local #mykids馬來港孩 #親子活動 #市建局 #市區更新探知館 #中環 #放學後 #課外活動 #市區重建 #保留 #香港 #親子活動 #香港好去處
