Camp 15-17 Dec

I must be one of the garang mummy who is brave enough to enrol my 3yr 10mths old gal for the camp...But I feel safe with Evan, Dana and Faith looking after her. Furthermore Daddy was supportive of the idea too.... I seek the teacher in charge's approval before I enrolled her because she believed Claudia will be fine in camp...

I am glad I did the correct decision!!! Claudia enjoyed herself so did Evan, as usual....


This is my present from them on the last day!!!

Their 1st ride

on a trishaw!!!

That day we were having lunch at the market and kids were so interested with the trishaws... A very kind uncle gave them a free ride and they were super happy!! Thank you uncle!!


Is it them or me?

I always "complain" my kids are too active, can't sit still for a moment... Today I reflected on myself, maybe it's me who is too active?!?!? hahaha

4 weeks of school holidays had passed and I tried very hard to recall if we spent a whole day at home without going out at all.... NONE!!! I must at least bring them out for a meal or a walk or something!!! So the culprit should be mummy me right?? haha

Before the holidays, I bought DIY sand art and craft work, thinking we can do those when we are BORED at home.... but those are still left in the store room because we had no time for them!! Also, I thought I should spent some time revising with Evan to prepare him for P1....BUT then I decided he deserve a good break before he start school.... haha... it must take a active mummy to have 2 active kids right?

I believe there are lots of mummies out there who are just like me right??

Car Wash

I mean washing it on our own, not at petrol kiosk....This is an activity that is exclusive to mummy and kids only!!! Because when Daddy is washing the car, he is super serious about it so he do not like to have the kids around.... Grandparents do not like it too because the kids will get wet and dirty...

But for me, it is a fun and safe activity for them so why not? See my boy, so serious with the cleaning... haha

One day tour

Last tue, I brought the kids for a one day tour with SKCC... Suppose to be an educational tour to soy sauce factory, tofu factory, birdnest and Airforce Museum... but it turned out more like a shopping tour because we did not really get to visit the factories....

They did not enjoy the itenary so much but they enjoyed the company!!!


School holidays can be super busy and tiring for the mummies, thinking and deciding activities/programs to keep them occupied....

This is already the 3rd week so what have we been doing? Painting, swimming, shopping, free shows at malls, skating and many more....

I am surprised!!

We were doing some workbooks today and Claudia really impressed me!!! She did this on her own and I nearly dropped from my chair!!!


Maybe I always think she is too young so I have never put too much emphasis on her learning.... Furthermore, she will always pretend she don't know her alphabets and work with a cheeky smile.... I did not expect her to write her alphabets so well.... Great job!!

Skate Camp

This post is 2 weeks late.... My kids attended a 5 day skate camp in the 1st week of the school holidays at Bedok Reservoir Park...

Evan already know how to skate before that so this camp had greatly improved his skills and confidence.... As for Claudia, i was impressed with her progress, she can skate independently now, not as fast but good enough for my 3 yrs 10 mths gal...

I am proud/shy to say that I am the most "steady" mummy... On the 1st day, I settled them and I left them with the instructors... That is how independent my kids can be heehee.... but after the 1st day, Evan complained!!! He said I was the only mummy who left, the rest of the mummies were all seated there waiting for their kids :P

Evan had a little fan Shyanne following him around and cheering him!!! So cute!!!


This is the final result on the last day!! Well done kids!!!

Queue, Queue, Queue AGAIN

Why are we queuing again and again? What else but all the free kiddy shows in the malls? Strawberry shortcake, Barney, Hi-5, Dora and more to come!!! I really salute those parents who went 2 hours earlier to queue!!

So far, I think Strawberry Shortcake was the best show we watched so far... and we spent the shortest time in the queue-15 mins!!


All the kids were super excited when they saw the bubbles!!!

I almost fainted at United Square when I saw the queue!! We went ahead but the Barney show was not that entertaining for my kids, maybe they had outgrown that stage.... (1 show lesser for next June holidays... hahaha) And we did not manage to get a good spot

Last wed, we caught 2 shows in 1 afternoon with Daddy... Then Daddy realised how crazy and "wei da" Mummy is... haha  The Hi-5 show has a good arrangement, kids who were at the later part of the queue were allowed to go in but without the parents... so the following pictures was taken by Evan and a don't-know-who...

Next is Dora The Big Pinata.... The show supposed to start at 7pm and we were there at 6.45pm... I thought the queue must be super long but surprising it was alright... The best part is they only allow the kids to sit in the centre while parents stand at the side/back... That is a wonderful arrangement!!! Adults can really occupied a lot of space and deprived other kids of the chance...
The most disappointing one was Toy Story... it was only a Meet and Greet session, no performance....
