Davian Pradhan (aged 6), Kowloon Junior School

During my winter break, I went to Kaohsiung, Taiwan. The best part of the trip was fishing for toads.

I went to a fishing farm with a big pond. The farm uncle gave me a long stick with some food tied to it and told me to make the stick jump on the water.

After some time, I caught a toad and pulled it out of the pond. As it jumped around, I grabbed it using my gloves.

The toad was squishy and wet. I gave it a pat on the back before putting it back in the water.

Lukas Wang (aged 7), Kowloon Junior School

I love drawing, reading and singing. I love going to school, doing homework, eating crisps and drinking juice.

I go to an after-school club on Mondays where I sing cool songs. My dad is an architect, and my mum is a doctor.

I recently lost two bottom front teeth, and my mum, aka the tooth fairy, gave me two coins.

Vienna Chan (aged 10), St Paul’s Convent School (Primary Section)

Do you like to eat at McDonald’s? It is a convenient place to get a meal. It is really delicious, especially the kids’ meal.

Kids often ask their parents to get a McDonald’s kids’ meal because of the toy it comes with. But the exciting toy in the meal is often of bad quality and will break easily.

McDonald’s gets your attention by changing the toy’s style and making only a small number of each. This makes people want to collect them, so you end up spending a lot of money on poor-quality toys.

So, for your own health, don’t eat McDonald’s just for the toys.
