Honey Pie specialises in baking American-style cookies for parties, corporate events or those “just because” moments. When Justine, an American living in Hong Kong, couldn’t fnd the perfect cookie, she started making her own using recipes, developed through years of baking for family and friends back in Houston and Chicago. She now sells her creations in an array of delicious favours, including JBo’s Mess (oats, chocolate chips and coconut), peanut butter crunch and oatmeal raisin. Orders are delivered in a box tied with a yellow bow and will bring a sweet smile to the recipient (and whoever is lucky to share the treats). To order tasty cookies and moreish muffns, email justine@honeypiehk.com , or call 6739 0192.

The Para’Kito natural, refllable wristband offers long-lasting mosquito protection. Chemical-free and waterproof, Para’Kito provides up to 15 consecutive days of protection that’s safe for everyone, including pregnant women and young children. Simply insert the active pellet into the easy-to-wear wristband and enjoy personal protection for all your activities. Because the pellet doesn’t touch the skin, even people susceptible to skin allergies and irritations can use it. Para’Kito wristbands are available in a range of colours and designs. The price, which we accidentally misstated in our June issue, is actually $145 for the wristband and two pellets, and $95 for refll packs. Learn more at http://hk.parakito.com .

In maths, seeing is understanding. At KidSciences Education Centre , they believe in teaching maths the “visual way”. Maths can be diffcult to understand when children are limited to using only symbols and equations. With the visual way of learning, they develop the skills and intuition needed for solving complex problems. Today almost all universities require a basic profciency in maths, so it’s important that kids get off on the right foot. KidSciences Education Centre offers a primary maths programme matched to the local maths curriculum, as well as maths curricula adopted in other developed countries, and a secondary programme based on the IB Maths curriculum.
