Kid Play...Bellhop or Cook for a Day at Rihga Hotel in Tokyo

This Kid Play was offered in July and August only.

Other Summer workshops: Not the School of Rock, Womad's Summer Camp and Learn French in the Mediterranean City of Montpellier

I do not know if their products are shipped beyond Singapore. It proves that the city/state is not just the host of tech and biotech companies. I hope their Beet It is not named after Michael song. They feature it...
