Exercising and Having Fun

Going to the playground is one of the places  which Tiger girl loves to go to. We are lucky to have five different playgrounds within walking distance from our house for her to select. There is even two exercise corners with one having machines specially for kids so they can exercise alongside their parents.

As you can see that the machines are easy enough for toddlers to handle them on their own.  On the opposite side of the area are the exercise machines for adults so I can monitor her while exercising at the same time.

The exercise machines could not sustain her interest for that long and after a while she was fussing to go back to the playground for a round on the swings.

Are there playgrounds and/or exercise

corners near your house?

Weekend Fun for the Kids

During the weekend we brought the kids to the park as the weather was good.  The boys went cycling and had a round of billiards before playing at the playground.

It is the third or fourth time the boys are playing the game since they have been introduced to it and they are slowly getting the hang of it. I guess that in a few years time we will be able to team up and play a game of 2 vs 2 with them.

Tiger girl is still a little young to join us at the billiard tables but she did had a fun time at the swings in the park.  She now goes for the “big kid” swing and doesn’t want to be put within the bucket swings anymore.  It is really more fun being on a big swing as she can swing higher and further as compared to being on a “baby” swing.

I was on the look out for blooms at the park but didn’t really spotted many. This was one of the rare few I saw on  a tree. I had to really zoom in to capture a close picture of it. Luckily I had my zoom lens with me that day.

Have you brought your kids to the park lately?
