Motivational Monday: Age is No barrier
Over the weekend the kids and I attended a session over at the Singapore Science Centre. The kids were invited by Playeum for their Sweet Tales Open House for their Outrageous Chocolate Factory workshop. The workshop was not as captivating as I have expected. In essence there was a short skid put up by the staff and after that the kids were guided in making their own art pieces.
What was most interesting for me was the way Tiger girl showed her maturity and participated alongside the older kids even though the activities were for kids from 3yrs and up. She happily pulled a cushion and sat at the back to listen to the girls who were putting up the short skid telling about the various candies which the kids could make. She even took and extra cushion and placed it next to her before tell me ” Mummy sit !!” while patting on the cushion.
After the instructions were given and the children moved on to the arts and craft session, Tiger girl found an empty place and plonk herself in front of one of the instructors. She chose the materials she wanted to use and asked me to help her paste it onto the coloured sheet which she had chosen.She worked on her art work for nearly 45 minutes!!
Tiger girl did up a really pretty card and I was really impressed by her initiative and drive to participate in the activities that day.
It really shows that age is not a barrier for her
Have your kid done anything that motivated you lately?
This week the theme is Funny Songs. I’m sharing with everyone this Song by The Taiwanese group- Da Mouth.

Wow, tiger girl sounds advanced beyond her age. I’m so impressed by how she has a mind of her own, picking her own materials and even working on it for the whole 45 minutes. Good job 🙂
