April 16, 2021
A great book or story is the perfect way to engage a young mind, and the secret to getting your kids to expand their horizons is to make them fall in love with reading! The Hong Kong International Young Readers Festival has joined hands with Xplore children’s academy to bring a fun-filled programme to Lee Garden 2 throughout the weekend of 1-2 May 2021.
Held annually, the Hong Kong International Young Readers Festival is a celebration of creativity, creating unique opportunities for young people to meet some of the world’s greatest storytellers. This year, the festival has teamed up with Xplore to bring authors such as Joanne Li, Suzanne Younan, Bhakti Mathur, Rachel Ip, Pirate and Dove Tales Theatre to Lee Gardens, where they will share their works with young Xplorers! The two-day event is open to all Xplore members aged 4 to 8, and will feature a myriad range of fun and educational book-reading sessions and workshops designed to help young minds learn about the world, and discover the fun of reading. Each Xplorer will also receive a special edition tote bag with two selected books at the end of the class.
Join the authors in venturing through their carefully crafted stories, whilst discovering the world and themselves along the way. They can also get inspired by getting your hands and legs busy through these creative workshops.
