Hi, I know how you are feeling. I was the same about 1 year ago. I live in Clear Water Bay and have 5 & 7 year old boys. We can set up a play date if you like. I thought Tai Po had a huge amount of children there? Is he at school? For things to do buy the book Hong Kong for Kids. It will give you so many ideas of what to do and where to take him. It also explains how to get there.

Hi Bexly,
I also live in Tai Po. I have 3 kids age 12 (boy), 3(girl) and 1(boy). Our kids aren't exactly the same age, but if you'ld like I'ld be happy to get together.
You can get the HK for kids book at Dymocks, but be advised if you want to drive to the locations it's not very helpful as everything originates in Central. You can use it to find things using PT though and it's good for ideas.
Have you taken your son to the Tai Po Market railway station or the HK Cultural museum at Shatin?

I believe that most of the Dymocks are located on the Island. My mind is drawing a blank for the closest one just now - sorry. I was at New Town Plaza yesterday and I noticed that they have one for kids there yesterday (by the Toys R Us).
The TPRR station is just near Fu Shin Street in Tai Po.
To get to the HK Cultural Museum go to the Shatin KCR, enter New Town Plaza Phase 3 and then follow the signs - you'll go outside and under a pedestrian subway.
They also have a pretty nice Children's corner in the Tai Po Library. I was there for the first time on Sunday and was impressed - much nicer than the library at Shatin.
Feel free to email or call me if you need more detailed directions.
