Halloween and all its craze is behind us, but putting our costumes back in the closets doesn’t mean that the capital gets to be set on “rest mode”. There are still plenty of things for you to do, visit and experience this week, and here are a number of events that can be fun for the whole family!
Beijing Lullaby – A Musical Stroll in Dashilar
Take a stroller-friendly musical journey down memory lane in the hutongs and let your toddler participate in interactive songs and musical games. The 90-minute event, organized by Beijing Postcards, will take place on Nov 13, and even though it's designed for toddlers and their parents, it can be fun for older children too. The musicians will play traditional Chinese rhythms as well as international lullabies while young children and their families explore old hutong alleyways surrounded by music. Tickets can be purchased for RMB 400 for a family of three, and RMB 80 for an additional child. All proceeds will be donated to support children made vulnerable by war.
