Alfie Tang Yu-chih (aged 8), Spanish School of Hong Kong

My favourite board game is called Life. It is about choices you make, such as whether to go to college or start working right away and whether you want to get married, have children and retire early.

In the game, you can land on different coloured blocks that give you chances to buy a house, get paid, pick an action card, invest money, have children and change your career. I like landing on purple spots to see the houses.

I like playing this with family and friends because it makes me think. I would recommend this game to everyone.

Saira Shah (aged 7), Kowloon Junior School

I love cats, kittens, dogs and puppies, but I don’t have any pets because my brother is scared of them and my mum doesn’t like them.

My brother and my dad love cricket. My mum and I love baking. I also like eating cake, ice cream and chocolate.

My favourite subject in school is art. My dad also likes art, and he is very good at it.

My favourite cousin is Mira, and she lives in India.

I love writing. I have written a lot of stories about a cat-girl and some about a dog-man. My other writings are for cookbooks.

Thyler and Skyler Ng (aged 10), Spanish School of Hong Kong

We went to Tai Kwun Contemporary’s Family Day workshop led by local artists called Mudwork. The workshop was inspired by a Japanese artist, On Kawara. His series called “I Got Up” uses postcards to capture mundane moments with special meaning.

We collaborated with our parents to create “memory postcards” for each other. We reinterpreted ordinary moments, from a simple phrase to a seemingly insignificant gesture. This workshop was a playfully enjoyable experience.
