Can you recommend some classes? I am particular interested in the African dance and Lego class you mention in your blog.

Some popular areas to stay are Xinyi district, Taipei Mains station, Neihu, and zhongxiao east road. There are quite a few kids' cafes in Taipei which is great for rainy days. As there will be lots of them in January. I recommend mooonspring.http://moooonspring.com/ Songshan creative park and Chang Kai Shek Memorial Hall are good places to hang out. There will be a Frozen exhibition in Chang Kai Shek Memorial hall this winter. http://www.frozenevent.com.tw/ There are also some historical buildings you can visit with kids. lin An Tai house is one of them. http://english.linantai.taipei/ The kids can run around and on weekends they have activities for kids. Admission is free. Hot spring is also popular this time of the year. Just remember to bring a bathing suit and swimming cap and ask ahead of time which ones are kids friendly. Most of them are but just to be sure, call and ask. <br /><br />You can pretty much expect rain on most days in January. The temperature will range from 8-20 degrees. Depending whether there is a cold front blowing in from the north. But I wouldn't worry about the weather too much as there isn't anything you can't buy in Taipei these days. :) I hope this helps. I wish you a pleasant stay in Taipei!

My husband and I are not really where we should go with the 2 kids in tow. Where would you recommend? Thought to figure where we want to go before we book our accomodation. And is the temperature very low in jan? Tried to Google for it but the averages don't seem to be good gauges.Shitingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-123917415257400830.post-87193263758083941042014-09-25T07:09:09.990-07:002014-09-25T07:09:09.990-07:00Hi Alice,

Although not a grand celebration during Christmas time like in European countries but you can still feel the holiday spirit in the air. Weather can be pretty unstable around December. It ranges from sunny low 20's to rainy low 10's, depending on your luck. I recommend looking up any upcoming exhibits at the Taipei Science Education center and Chang Kai Shek Memorial hall. They often have great exhibits catering to children and adults. There are also a recent sprout of cafes all of over Taipei offering delectable sweets and kid friendly atmosphere. There is also a few children's restaurants around taipei. My favorite is Moooonspring cafe. Email me if you need more details in the course of your planning.

The teachers are all wonderful. http://www.kindermusik.com/ There are also quite a few other toddler classes you can check out at My gym http://www.my-gym.com.tw/schedule.htm and Gymboree http://www.gymboree.com.tw/locations/maptwindex.htm. There is also a very popular restaurant for kids called Mooon Spring. The restaurant is equiped with toys and playareas and food geared towards toddlers and preschoolers. http://moooonspring.com/. I hope you and your little one will have a wonderful time in Taipei. If you like, drop me an email and share with me your experiences of Taipei or if you need any more info on the city. :) Part Time Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00905833233574876360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-123917415257400830.post-48634541815684176632014-05-25T07:19:58.913-07:002014-05-25T07:19:58.913-07:00Hi there, I have a 2 year old and we will be stayi...Hi there, I have a 2 year old and we will be staying in Taiwan this June for a month.<br />It will be my first visit to Taipei, do you have any suggestions on classes I could attend with my 2 year old?

Most restaurants can get quite crowded on the weekends, bringing a high chair or booster with your would be a major hassle in the crowd. Many medium size dining establishments have high chairs available. There's also been an explosion of American diners in Taipei in the recent years and they definitely have high chairs available. But do note that, small family owned cafeteria or fast food style eateries will not have high chairs. Let me know if you have anymore question on Taipei. :) Part Time Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00905833233574876360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-123917415257400830.post-7580881052157848852014-03-20T11:06:33.156-07:002014-03-20T11:06:33.156-07:00Thank you for posting this!

Thanks for your comment. There are 2 p...Hi Siu-Mae,<br />Thanks for your comment. There are 2 popular day trips from Taipei. One is to Danshui and the other to Jiufen. Both are popular for a reason: easily accessible by bus or metro from Taipei. Jiufen is an old mining town with an old street and lots of street food, tea houses (with great view) and a gold mining museum. Danshui is by the ocean, again there is an old street with lots of street food. There are also lots of colonial structures worth visiting in the Danshui area. The pros of going to Jiufen is that it's a lot smaller, more manageable with a toddler and it can be still fun even in pouring rain (which is obtain the case in May/June). The pros of going to Danshui is that there are lots of sights to see and activities to do like renting a bike and exploring the area. There are also lots of cafes by the ocean to enjoy a beautiful sunset. However, Danshui would be kind of a hassle exploring with a toddler if it happens to rain. If you have any questions let me know.
