How do you know that the kid is bored during a wedding meal?

Majority of the guests invited for a typical wedding dinner will be adults, and kids who tagged along with their parents for such dinners would likely be bored and tend to create something out of the blue to relieve themselves from the boredom. Some would roam or roll around on the carpeted floor (without their shoes), some would play hide-and-seek, and so on.

And I managed to capture this little girl performing this "creative art" piece on the dining table:



WHAT WAS THAT???
Take a close peek below, and I believe you might have just guessed it right!

An Art piece evolved from Boredome ;D

It was a Flower with petals from the crispy prawn tempuras!
So, you can now count the number of the prawns eaten by the little kid.

BTW, this did not happen during Shawn and Eva's wedding ;D

Effective Reminders@WC - Series 1

I had been going in and out of AH recently to visit my dad and I personally found these toilet reminders quite easy to comprehend and put them into practice.

We could probably share these with our kids, make it fun for them to learn and adopt hygienic practices at home or in the public toilets.... but you may have to be careful with the last reminder ;-)

Take a peek:





Thanks AH for such interesting reminders!

Fun facts and "True" story of Santa Claus

Yah! I know X'mas is over, and it's the 14th day from 25 Dec 2009!
Perhaps, you may like to know these fun facts and share these with your kids in the coming X'mas which is just 11 months down the road (time flies ....). If you can't remember them, then please bookmark this blog ;D

Well, guess what answers you might get when you ask kids about Santa Claus? For example,
Why does Santa Claus wear RED?

Some kids' answers:
  • Because he is a very HAPPY old man and his whole body turns RED
  • Riding in the sky could be quite dangerous, so he need to wear RED for the airplane pilots to spot him easily and give way to his sleigh, then he will always deliver my presents on X'mas!
  • Dad, please let me use your computer and I believe I can get the answer from Google .....

And that's what I have done and found these answers:

If the above link does not work, try THIS!

Here is where you may learn about the The True Story of Santa Claus!

And finally, if you wish to learn more and how Santa Claus had evolved over the years, read it from Wikipedia ;-p

Have a wonderful year in 2010!

Counting down and Welcoming the New Year 2010!

This was my first time to take a peek at the community countdown to New Year party.
I took a walk with my two kids & Belle to the event, and we arrived in the nick of time for the Countdown!And here are some of the clips:

The event was held in the large open-air courtyard beside Hong Kah Community Club




This clip will show you the countdown over at Hong Kah North celebrations and if you fast forward to the last 10 seconds, you should be able to see me popping a bottle of sparkling fruit juice; it actually popped by itself without me touching the cork at all .... geeeezzzzz ....
