Rynae fell sick 2 days after the IMM trip and we guessed it must be the afternoon heat.. causing her heat stroke.. or.. whatever you call that.. Luckily, she recovered the very next day! V is for Victory or Victim? Hee..

IMM open water playground

I read from Straits Times a few months ago that IMM has a new open water playground. Some mothers in my neighbourhood have been talking about it hence we decided to bring Rynae there to check it out. We have no idea where and which floor it is located so we shot right up to level 5, speculating that it should be at the roof top. An empty hall greeted us at level 5. We went 2 levels down and Daddy spotted the playground on level 2. It was pretty hot at 12ish pm therefore we allowed Rynae to play in the dry playground only (which is beside the wet playground). We revisited the place at about 4ish pm. The sun's less blazing then, so permission granted to play!

Vege Stamping on 19 Feb

Whenever mummy feels like role playing as a teacher, she'll think of something for her only student to participate in. This time, I cut up some carrots, potatos and broccoli stem and carved some simple shapes onto them, to be used as stamps! Rynae love the activity but Mummy can tell that she is more interested in squeezing and mixing the paint rather than on stamping!

Gift of love from San Diego

Auntie Sharon came back to Singapore during the CNY holidays and along with her is a demin dress she bought from San Diego for Rynae! What a lovely thought... The dress is a little oversize now but it will suit Rynae perfectly next CNY. Mummy like the dress a lot because of its simple yet classy design. Most important of all, the demin fabric is soft! Great buy!

Belated Birthday Present

After dinner, as usual, we brought Rynae to Kiddy Palace to have her fun there. I decided to get the little gal a Toy House because I could use it as an educational piece of material for role playing to teach discipline, time management and respect etc. Anyway, we didn't get her any birthday present so let this be considered so then.

10th Indo Trip Home

Mummy and Daddy brought Rynae back to Indo during the Chinese New Year for the 10th time and below are some pictures to share with Dashing Mama's blog fans!

One moment, she was eating with style. The next, she knocked out.

Playtimes like the good old kampong days....

Drinking coconut water, fresh from the trees....

Any idea what this is? A slide on a school compound playground made from tiles and cement! Mind your steps!

Birthday Girl Treats!

Mummy decided to make 29 Jan special for Rynae, being her 1st year of school, by making her little goody bags to give out to her classmates as a form of announcement and well wishes for her. As it was mummy's 1st attempt in preparing goody bags, she spent several sleepless nights planning the number and type of things to include. In the end, she prepared 15 packets of it, each with 1 mentos mini, 1 M&Ms milk chocolate and 1 Wang Zai mini mantou. In total, 10 goody bags were given out and 5 were brought back home. The cost is broken down as such:

Mentos mini x 2 packets ($1.05 x 2) = $2.10

M&Ms milk chocolate x 1 packet = $4.95

Wang Zai mini mantou x 3 strings ($1 x 3) = $3

Goody Bags x 2 packets ($1 x 2) = 2

Manpower Cost = FOC!

Total = $12.05

Each Good Bag = ($12.05/15) = $0.80
