    any playgroups or parents who meet up?

    Can't understand why no one responds to postings of playgroups in Kowloon? Do they not exist? Hearing all the playgroups on the HK side makes me a tad envious....would love to meet others on this side without trekking over to the HK side everyday. Can anyone advise of any? Thanks.

    I'd imagine there are more members living on HK island and that's why nobody mentions about playgroup in Kln!!

    There is a Parents & Toddlers class at YMCA TST, every Mon and Thurs, and each class costs HK$40 (member) / HK$55 (non-member).

    There are also a few playgroups at Metropolis Mall (Hunghom), such as My Gym, My MusikBox, Amazing Language, etc.

    In Kln Tong, there is Kids' Gallery which offers Kindermusik program.

    Hi Mambo, Tsang_jj,

    When you ask about playgroups are you talking about self-formed playgroups by mothers or ones that you can take at centers? Also, do you expect the language used to be English, Cantonese, Mandarin?

    Here is a few that you can take a look at:

    Kindermusik is offered at:
    1) Kids Gallery -
    28 Cumberland Road , Kowloon Tong, Kowloon
    Tel: (852) 2337 1001
    2) YMCA - TST
    3) Tiny Seed Kinder Studio -Entrepot Centre Kwun Tong (connected to APM shopping centre)
    Tel: 2372-9068


    The Metropolis Mall,6 Metropolis Drive,Hung Hom, Kowloon (KCR exit C)
    1) My Musikbox
    2) My Gym
    I think there are a few more centres - not sure if they have playgroups - they have a whole floor in the mall for children activities

    The Little Gym
    New World Centre
    18-24 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui

    Below are the more expensive playgroups/early childhood programmes etc.:

    Nottingham Children Campus ( NCC ) - used to be on 1 Stafford Road Kowloon Tong - but have moved recently - but still in Kowloon Tong area
    Tel: 2337-7148

    TutorTime
    Kowloon Tong School No. 1 Dorset Crescent, Kowloon Tong, Kowloon
    Tutor Time WOW School No. 9 Suffolk Road, Kowloon Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong

    Yew Chung
    10 Somerset Road, Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong

    There are also tons of local playgroups in Kowloon area - you can probably just search on the internet. If you have enough mommies, you can probably form your own groups and select your own time.

    Cheers and good luck.

    The YMCA in TST has playgroups. www.ymcahk.org
    Also USRC in Jordan - Gascoigne road used to have playgroups. www.usrc.org.hk but I couldn't find the information on the website. Maybe you can call them directly and see if they still hold them.

    There's a new place in Hung Hom in the Metropolis Mall. It's called Amazing Language and in addition to English, they run French, Spanish and Japanese playgroups.

    MyGym also has a location in Kowloon in the same Mall.

    The USRC playgroup has been around for ages and is always a hit with Moms/Kids

    Lastly, if you're in Kwun Tong, check out Tiny Seed Kinder Studio

    I am trying to look for playgroup for my 19 month old boy too. Recently, I have collected info and visited couple of them in Kowloon Tong which are Tutor Time, Anfield and Yew Chung and Kiddi Craft Academy. Tutor Time looks very professional to me but it is quite expensive($1450/4 classes). Whilst Anfield requires term enrolment and costs average $200/hour. But surprisingly, Yew Chung has a programme for 2year old kids (which I was not very sure what is called) costing average $112/hour. Anyone knows more about these courses, please share your experience and opinions.
