These folks have some of the best toys in town in their super playrooms. Their play areas have everything from dress-up corners and craft areas, to a cool multi-sensory room with colors, sounds and things to touch and hold and a family game area. And while it’s really all about creative play, there are organized activities like songs or story time and snack time. The Cyberport space is massive and loads of fun (we love the baby sensory tent), but don’t miss the smaller (and slightly less manic) location in Causeway Bay.
