Even though I do not have (yet) have kids myself, I am always quite amazed by the playrooms offer in Hong Kong. Born and raised in Paris, I had never heard of such a thing as indoor playground. Really, quite fascinating to me! And I guess children must love those kinds of places. But also wondering, aren’t they quite impersonal? And do parents really enjoy taking their children there (I know, what wouldn’t you do for your little ones)? That’s when I heard about a place which looks like no other: Maggie & Rose.

Launched in 2015 at The Pulse, Maggie & Rose is definitely not the gigantesque and impersonal kind. It’s a Family Members Club aiming at inspiring children and adults alike. I spent a few hours there and it almost convinced me that I should have kids, just so that I could join.
Ok, I am kidding but the place really seems inspiring and comprises: a beautiful roof terrace (where they sometimes organize barbecue parties open to non-members, check their Facebook page if you are interested in joining one of them), beach access, energy-burning soft play, innovative brasserie, creative studios for classes and parties and EAT+PLAY themed booths including a locally inspired Cha Chaan Teng.
Maggie & Rose also offers a range of classes and camps, aiming again at inspiring your children:

- Cooking
- Art
- Make & Make Believe
Hong Kong Madame tips: you might wanna check their camps schedule as those, ran every half-term and holidays, are also opened to non-members.
I could definitely picture myself spending afternoon there with my kids … Knowing that I do not have kids yet, I guess it’s fair to say that Maggie & Rose has successfully inspired me on that day!
