大人不见了， 红姐姐儿童剧， 02/03/2013

这么大个人， 我还是第一次看话剧。 而且还是为了双宝去看的， 哈哈。
之前， 在FB得知红姐姐将举办"大人不见了"儿童剧， 看见网友有去， 再看看地址， 才决定和双宝一起去看。

02/03/13 一早， 老公就催我们赶快出门， 因为当天刚好约了木匠来家里订座他的桌子&橱。
老公怕敏感的我们会被灰尘弄得整身发痒， 所以一早要我们赶紧出门。
用过早餐， 我们就出门了。
还好地方不难找， 在KFC 附近， 看到有很多家长&小孩， 所以确定到了目的地。

一到了现场，观众都很有次序的排队报名登记。
入场后，红姐姐， 洪秀琴就自我介绍， 要各自的小朋友坐在前面，家长在后面。
可是， 我家双宝怎么都不肯， 我们只好坐在旁边。

一开始， 先warming up- 做红姐姐折纸。
很容易 ， 看看我们的可爱"红姐姐"造型 ^_^

话剧开始啦， 小朋友们都全神贯注的看着小山， 爸爸， 妈妈 ， 山卡拉 &红姐姐在表演。
我还是第一次看戏剧， 原来戏剧是这样的^_^

 

 

真的很精彩， 也很有意思， 教导小朋友要独立处理他们范围可以做的事情， 不可以太过依赖其它人， 尤其是父母。双宝很喜欢这次的活动， 还要求我下次再带他们来看戏剧。

戏剧后， 有个"做三文治 "环节， 小朋友的最爱，可能平时没有这么的机会 (起码我家的小孩是如此 - 我很怕双宝来捣乱我的厨房)。做完后， 双宝吃的津津有味。 从来没有看过他们这么认真的吃着食物， 或许是自己动手做， 比较有成就感吗?

今天， 真的让我上了宝贵的一课 :-

孩子期待我们的信任， 希望我们能放手让他们完成他们的事情。
很多时候， 我们大人都以大人的角度去分析他们的事务， 总认为他们没有办法完成。 结果， 我们都"动手动脚"的帮他们完成。
有时， 换个角度想想我们是否应该放手， 让他们自由发挥呢?
在书上曾经看到: 教道小孩就像放风筝似的， 不能太紧， 也不能太松， 要适时放开。
很难捉摸， 对吗?

好久没有上来报告一切了.

今年很忙, 让双宝参加的活动也慢慢增加了, 因为我觉得是时候让他们慢慢尝试新的东西. 往往, 一看到有绘本活动, 读书会, 讲座, 我都有一股冲动, 很想一一报名参加. 可是, 到最后, 我却是过不了最后一关 : 交通 & 双宝的安排. 对我这个"路痴" 来说, 为了小孩, 我已经很努力的尝试在KL 驾车.

很多时候,迷路了, 就只好硬着头皮问人 - 试过向警察 & 打油工人问路, 幸好都遇到好人, 指指点点下安全到达目的地 ^_^

少了妹妹的陪伴, 哥哥还是玩的很开心.
我们没有捉到最"迷人"的蚱蜢, 只是捉到蚂蚁 & 臭虫,  可是对于平常少接触到昆虫的哥哥, 已经很兴奋了.

故事环节是最吸引小朋友, 生动有趣的"好饿的毛毛虫"逗得每位小朋友哈哈大笑!

谢谢森林妈妈们所筹备的活动  ^_^

Baby Love Grow Pants Graduation Party 2012

I love freebies, when I saw Diapers Swap Programme is coming back again on 16/12/12. I faster marked down in my calendar - yes I'm going to queue to be a kiasu MM to swap diaper for my little JY.
Hubby laughed at me & saying me has become very kiasu & C9 lately, since this is my 2nd time for joining this diaper swap programme.  I brought twins along with me together for the programme. It was long queue on that day since we were late, luckily we still manage to change 1 pack of diapers for our little JY.

The other day I've registered for attending Baby Love Grow Pants Graduation Party 2012 at Megakidz, Mid Valley. It has been weeks, and I didn't received any sms or calls from them. Just when I thought it was all over, I got their call on 07/12/12 while we were at Big Bad Wolfs Book Exhibition, MIECC. Yes, we're all invited & I've told hubby that he needs to take advance leave for that party.

Finally, it was 29/12/12.
My twins wake up very early that day, as I told them if we were late, we won't be able to go to Midvalley. JY wakes up very early too, and I guess due to this he was a bit cranky in the party. We reached Midvalley by 9.45am, and registered by 9.55am. We were very lucky as we were very early. It was a long queue later on, and over crowded with lots of people.

JY was a bit cranky as he refused to wear the graduation cap during the photo taking session (which was part of the party costume). I guess the paper card was not very comfortable, that's why he refused to wear it. He refused to take part in the photo shooting session too. Hubby & I gave up, and we brought him out instead to join twins for the activities.

 

 

There wasn't many activities, as the hall is pretty small- over crowded with kids, babies & parents.
Twins enjoyed pretty much in the activities, especially the air bouncer castle, where twins were walking & bouncing here & there. JY too enjoyed much in this, and he got a small medal for taking the flags from the air bouncer. Couldn't snap much photos as too crowded, and very hard to take photos.

JY enjoying so much playing with EQ ^_^

JY looks so innocent ^_^

We didn't stay long in the party, as it was very hot & over crowded.
The food was very messy & it was out of control. Parents were rushing out for food, and due to limited space in the "refreshment" area, some parents were just sitting there for chit chatting instead of letting out the place out for those needy parents whom need to feed their kids & breastfeeding their babies.
After taking some quick refreshment, we went out for fresh air.
I glad the kids enjoyed much in the party, but definitely I won't bring them to Megakidz again for activities - the place is just too small & very stuffy in it.


Freebies from Baby Love

3 nice flash cards (Animals, Profession, Transportation) with nice stickers.

A nice height measurement poster & a pack of Bany Love Grow Pants ^_^

Part 2
We went for shopping at Midvalley later on, EQ followed my mom & brother back to Setia Alam.
We went browsing & surveying clothes for the kids.
JY was soo tired that he slept on hubby's shoulder while he was carrying him. So we decided to rest & have a short tea break at Pancake's House. I love the pancakes, yummy, price were reasonable, just that the service is pretty poor as they were lots of people in the restaurant.
I need to remind them 2x for my pancakes, and they didn't send us the mineral water, and overcharged us.

Photo Session
After recharge, another photos session ^_^

Going back to hometown & happy vacation at Penang

Due to long holidays, I suggested to hubby to go back to his hometown to visit his dad, and at the same time bringing the twins to Penang.
This round we didn't bring along BB JY as the previous trip, he has been very cranky and refused to be on food & drink. So, due to hot weather, we decided not to bring him along with us for this trip.

We reached Serdang, Kedah (hubby's hometown) at about 7pm.
We tapao 2 salted chicken from Ipoh for my FIL. This salted chicken is very famous in Ipoh. Every time when we happened to drop by at Ipoh, we'll sure to buy 2 chickens back, either to Kedah or back to KL. My twins can finished half of the chicken by their own, so you can imagine how delicious was it ^_^

The very famous salted chicken can be bought at :-
24, Jalan Theatre,
30300, Ipoh, Perak.
Tel : 05-254 2998
Aun Kheng Lim Salted Chicken

The next day we went to Batu Ferriggi & Teluk Bahang.
This was my first time here.
The beaches were nice and very clean.

This was taken at Teluk Bahang, nice isn't it?
Twins were playing sands & water with papa ^_^

 



 

See how excited is my twins playing sands? Hubby digs a big hole and both of them start playing the sands and throwing the sands to each other!

 

We stay a night at Golden Sands Resort , there was a promotion for Executive Suit at RM460++ / night. We decided to stay a night as the scenery was very nice, and at pool facility was very good.

My twins were with sparkling eyes when they saw the swimming pool & the white beaches.
They kept on shouting when I was queueing to check in at the registration counter.

The room was clean, although it was pretty small, if your were comparing the "price" with the room.
However, I like the sea view from our room, just nice with the bath tub.
My twins whom are still not satisfying after playing half of the day in the pool, insisted for a second round of water splashing in the hotel's room bath tub!

Twins posing in the hotel's room with their swimming suit, they kept shouting & requesting us to bring them to the swimming pool, and insisted to have a nice photo with their new swimming suit.
(Bought this online at reasonable price, the old one is a bit tight for KH, and he claiming that the swimming trunk is very cold for him, he requested for a suit instead ^_^)

I didn't snap any photos in the swimming pool, as I didn't bring my camera along, as I need to watch over twins while they were in the pool.
Karen, Edwin & their son - Ian came and join us in the pool.
(Karen was my landlord while I was renting a room with her at JB. Although I've moved back to KL, we still kept a close relationship with each other through chatting.)
Ian was 4 months elder than our BB JY.

The next day we wake up early for a splendid breakfast at the cafe.
We met Karen again & took a photo with her & Ian.

We finished our breakfast early & take a move to the beaches again.
Lots tourist were swimming there.
I didn't let twins to go for swimming, as I knew that they will not be willing to go back early, as we need to check out by 12 noon later.
Twins requested for sands playing again :-)

Overall, we all enjoyed our trip this round, and we'll be back again to Penang, and this round we'll bring along BB JY for a family trip.

小小的图书馆 (亲子阅读)

I loved to read books, and most of all, I loved to buy books.
I'll normally buy books online, as I've limited time for myself to do window shopping at bookstore.

Hubby have been complaint about my books, as it was everywhere, from living room, dining hall to bedroom :-( I'll try to read books to my kids, if I've time & a bad habit nowadays is I need to read few pages before I sleep.

I saw from catalogue that Tesco is having promotion for a small book cabinet.
So, I bought 1 & I spend ~30minutes to assemble the book cabinet by myself.
Yes, all by myself. I wonder when was the last time I ever used this tools? Well, it was at least 8-9 years back, when I was still in university taking my "Workshop" for my credit.

A nice assembled book cabinet, placed in my living hall, where my kids can take the books whenever they like & a place for us to share our reading hobby.

书中自有黄金屋

This is a good poem :-
富家不用买良田，书中自有千钟粟。
安居不用架高楼，书中自有黄金屋。
娶妻莫恨无良媒，书中自有颜如玉。
出门莫恨无人随，书中车马多如簇。
男儿欲遂平生志，六经勤向窗前读。

I'm believing in this :-
Read everyday, Lead for a better life ^_^
