      I have 3 kids from 4 to 2 yrs old. Thinking of a place where I can bring them, my parents & my maid for a short holiday. Somewhere near & not expensive since it will be a large group. Places that come to my mind are Bintan, Redang (1.5 hr flight away) & Malacca. Colleague suggest Perth. Any recommendation?

      Genting. Although theme park there sub-standard, young kids still like it. Parents can go casino if they like.

        Went goldcoast during June Holidays. Adsolutely enjoyable, especially my 7 yrs old girl. But Dec will be too hot, i guz.


        If China, can try Shanghai..


        what are the must go places in Shanghai that are fun for young kids?

        We went their underwater aquarium..rather impressive. Cruise along the bund, rather good experience for DD even though she was only 5 then.

            Yes, Australia is generally good for children. Clean, hygienic and no language barrier.


            Although summer is generally good for travelling, there might be problem of flies ! We went to Perth in November last year and my DS was busy swatting flies ! There are flies everywhere, even in the Airport! Although not very a lot of flies, but enough to be a nuisance.

            My DS even had a dream of swatting the flies ! He sat up in the middle of the night and said "Shoo Shoo!" with his hands swatting the flies ! Hee hee !

              joke aside, the flies problem is no joke at all.

                    Hi flametree,


                    not sure about sydney, maybe see whether any members have been to sydney farmstay during dec...

                    Perth's summer is dry and hot, maybe that's why there is problem of the flies. Err, not so bad to fly into the mouth, but they fly everywhere and not afraid of people. So it was pretty irritating šŸ˜›

                      How about Taiwan or Taipei? Is there any fun things for young kids to see or do?

                        I always find Australia a good place to explore with young kids. The country is generally child friendly. And seriously, how wrong can one go with farmstays and theme parks and beaches.


                        China in December will be very cold.
                        If going Australia in Dec would be hot, I would rather give it a miss. Actually would prefer to visit the Chinese country as in a way to get them expose to chinese roots & teachings. The Ang Moh contries maybe can save it for next time.

                        Does China have any theme park? Wonder should target which part of China.
