The entrance which greeted us upon entering the hall

Last week we were at the Singapore Expo to check out Drypers Little Day Out which was on at Hall 4B. There were many families there who brought their kids to take part in the activities that were organised by Drypers. There were a few different areas which were set aside for kids of different ages as you can see from the map above. Parents could attend the talks on how to help your child or let the kids listen to the show and tell sessions which conducted. There were activities for everyone in the family and games which both parents and kids can participate together.

The different areas in the hall

There were certain areas like the Baby Fun Zone , First Aid Tent and Diaper changing area which we gave a miss as the kids were more keen on the rides. You could even buy Dryperz ‘ Wee Wee Dry’ & ‘Drypantz’ from their sales tent and I did see many parents stocking up on them before exiting the exhibition.

The bouncy “train” castle

The boys had fun lots of fun inside this Thomas the train station look a like bouncy castle. Tiger girl wanted to enter the bouncy castle however seeing that the kids within the bouncy castle were bigger and more rowdy then her she decided to turn her attention to the choo choo train ride instead.

Tiger girl going on the choo-choo train ride

Tiger girl loves trains and couldn’t wait to go on the train for a ride. The boys wanted to go for a ride too but as it was for ages five and under so they had to give it a miss. The train went one small round and she wasn’t satisfied with the short ride. Tiger girl promptly queued up again for a 2nd round once the 1st ride was over.

The Gondola

The boys on the other hand queued for the Gondola after getting their fill of the bouncy castle. There were many families and even babies which went on the ride with their parents. I chose not to go on the Gondola with them as I was looking after the pram and taking pictures of them. They really enjoyed themselves swinging back and forward in it.

Having fun with the signs

R playing with the sign placing it on top of Tiger girl. I’m guessing she must be trying to hide away again from having her picture taken as she was getting cranky by then.

A family shot taken at their photo booth

We spotted this photo booth on our way out and stopped to take a family photo. It was not that professionally taken like those we have done before but I found the pocket size shots were nice momentos for me and R to have in our wallets. It was a great day of family bonding for us.

Did you enjoy yourself on the weekend?

Writer’s Workshop- I Am Currently

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Thoughts alpha thursday, mama kat's writers workshop

Mama Panda and her cubs

There are so many things that are on my plate at the moment. Sometimes it can be overwhelming deciding on what to do first and setting the priorities on which item I should allocate my time to so that all can be completed within the week.

Reading

Raising Respectful Children in a Disrespectful World by Jill Rigsby, The Broken Circle by Cheryl Potter and Unbridled a memoir by Barbara McNally are the books that came in this month for me to read. So far I ‘ve only made it to chapter 1 of the first book while the other two books are collecting dust on my study table. I’m hopeful that I’ll be able to finish at least the first book by the end of this week.

Listening to

I’m into listening to the compilation of KDrama Series theme songs. This is my current favourite from Prosecutor Princess.

Thinking about:

How to finish using the whipped cream in the fridge. I have been procrastinating since I bought the 1 liter tetra pack two months ago. It hasn’t been opened so it is still good for us. I’ve decided that we are going to make fruit tarts this week. If there is still a lot left over maybe another round of Hokkaido Chiffon cake also 🙂

Watching

The traffic lights turn from red to green signalling that it’s time to move on on the road. I have to be on the road a lot more this new school term as the kids have an increase in after/before school activities and need me to ferry them around more often on school days. I’m also following the Taiwainese drama series Fabulous boys(原來是美男 / Yuan Lai Shi Mei Nan) staring Jiro Wang.

Bummed out on

My weight lost regime not getting anywhere. It is extremely frustrating trying to lose the extra kilos. It just seems to be still stubbornly sitting there instead of falling off. There must be something else that I need to tweak. The dieting regime isn’t really helping me much and the running around is wearing me down making me exhausted even before I can start with the exercise routine.

Loving

Waking up to the four of them having smiles on their faces when they see me. Receiving hugs and kisses when they come back from work/school and them enjoying the dinner that I prepare for them.
