I've lived in DB without children for 8 years but am expecting a baby soon so have been on the lookout for children's facilities. There are more numerous school options in DB than mentioned by the previous poster. For preschool there are three formal options: Sunshine House and Discovery Mind, both of which have a good reputation, and the DBIS also has a kindergarten.


As for primary and above, there is increasing choice in this area, as the ESF are building a new school (primary and secondary) which is supposed to be opening in 2005, and Sunshine House has recently opened a primary school in Tung Chung which is only 15 mins away by bus. These developments are sure to cut waiting lists at DBIS, and result in fewer kids having to get the ferry to school.


As for playgrounds, these are scattered everywhere, so there is one very close to everybody. Don't know about music but there is a dance school. I think the mother/toddler groups are mostly informal - there are so many mothers and toddlers here, you will not find it difficult to meet others!
