Montreal's China town has a new ephemeral outdoor square with Asian street food kiosks and ample seating to enjoy the festive atmosphere. Every Thursday to Sunday, from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m., Montrealers can try dishes from Hoho Street Food (Chinese), Egina BBQ (Mongolian) and World Tea House (Chinese) restaurants. The average cost of eats is under $10. You can munch on cold noodles ($7) or sip a fruity iced tea ($3-4) under a canopy of red lanterns. A central bar also serves beer ($5-7), sangria ($6) and non-alcoholic options, like lemonade ($2.50). A central stage under the cover of trees features an extensive line-up with 70 performances booked on Friday and Saturday nights through the summer, until the space closes on October 2.     The square is decked out in modern Chinese designs by multidisciplinary artist Le Lin. Moon, sun, butterfly and dragon motifs cover the metal structures that give the place a tradition-meets-urban vibe. Nestled in the site's central tree is an upcycled artwork made of plastic collected from Chinatown. The giant magnolia blossom by artist Wawa Li and space designer Sarah Tu made the piece, called Le Peigne, which lights up at night.     During two long weekends, July 28 to 31 and August 25 to 28, the Asian Market will turn into a Night Market. More than twenty restaurants in Chinatown and downtown will offer Thai, Vietnamese, Taiwanese, Japanese and Korean food.   "As a Chinese businesswoman, Montrealer, and active member of the Asian community in Montreal, I am proud to participate in a project that benefits the community. We have worked very hard to revitalize Chinatown and to give a platform to local merchants," said Yifang Eva Hu, Night Market founder and general manager.     "There is music, dance, food, drink, crafts — in short, a whole universe to discover," said Maxim Bragoli, general manager and co-founder of project partner La Pépinière Collective Spaces.   In addition to musical performances, the oasis will host Chinese calligraphy workshops, Cantonese lessons, tea ceremonies, Chinese opera, and traditional and contemporary dances. The complete program and schedule details are available on lecoeurdelile.com.

Chores and fun in the same breath? You bet. Here, some ideas for getting kids to beat you at the cleaning game. Hide treats, stickers, or pennies in, on, or under knickknacks, then ask your child to dust. She gets to enjoy the rewards only when everything is dusted. Post individual lists of chores kids can do (one for each child in your family). Whenever your child accomplishes a task, have her mark it with a sticker. Whoever has the most stickers at the end of the week gets the Helper of the Week award. Play "Go Fish" with a basket of clean socks. Divide the socks among the players, leaving a pile to draw from. Each player, in turn, holds up a sock and asks another player if he has the mate. If not, the asking player must take a sock from the top of the draw pile. When finished, the player with the most pairs wins. Turn any socks that stay single into child-friendly dust mitts. Insert child's hand into clean but dampened sock and use it to remove dust from houseplants and furniture. Have a scavenger hunt. Make a list of everyday items (newspapers, magazine, shoes, etc.). Set a timer for 5 minutes, then have kids collect stray items throughout the house. The winner is the child who picks up the most (and returns them to their rightful spots). After dinner, do a "10-minute Tidy." Set a timer and have family members scatter through the house putting away the day's clutter. Appoint someone to be Inspector D. Clutter. Armed with a laundry basket and plastic police badge from the dress-up box, this person roams the house and puts stray belongings into clutter "jail" (the basket). To set an item free, its owner (Mom and Dad included!) must do a chore. Turn a bucket into a personalized cleaning caddy. Use permanent marker to write your child's name on it and have him decorate its with other drawings. Store supplies such as sponge, dustrag and roll of paper towels, etc. Show them the money? Some experts believe allowance should be reserved for teenagers. School-aged children will easily get behind the idea that chores are something you do as a member of the family — not for money. They'll be excited just to show off their skill at completing a task.
