Zoo Fun

Finally we brought missy to Zoo.. after considering going to underwater world and all.. cos we still think missy will enjoy seeing animals (which she akready know how they look like from her toys) than just see sea creatures in underwater world.

Sunday weather was perfect eventhough LGG found out from weather broadcast, it will rain. Lucky thing it's partly cloudly and it only rained after we reached home. phew.. what a great escape.

We started the exporing from about 10am and ended the wh
ole journey about 2pm. 4 hours and we were so exhausted already. missy is tired and sleepy. LGG is tired of carrying missy as we need to carry her up to see the animals, since she is still not tall enough. and im tired too, partly cos i felt breast engroge haaa.. after pumping i felt relieve.. heee

and the weather was so humid and stuffy. the best part i think is the tram ride, that we can sit through and relax.. but then we felt hungry and sleepy.


After we catch a quick lunch at KFC, we went straight home.. missy sleeps on the journey home. so tired already.

some of the candid photos we have taken :)

Toilet Train progress - 31 month old

Missy is now competely off diaper for her naps.. we have tested it for almost 2 weeks now in school and at home. perfect ! no accident o far.

And we noticed that, if we get her to pee before sleeping at night, 3 out of 5 nights, she is dry throughout. But, we still let her wear diaper at night, just in case. eventhough i already prepared by putting the waterproof mattress protector on her bed, we bought two , just in case accident happen, can have replacement. hee.

Good progress so far. shall see if we can slowly wean her off her night diaper ! Good job my girl !

SM: Linking Memory

We have been practising our set 2A linking memory since Monday, by playing the Tensai CD track 9 and 10 for set 2A keywords, slow and fast speed.

i let missy listen to the track 9, while she points at the picture on the card. then we play track 10. after that i let her arrange the cards, she has been doing quite well as she manage to arrange all cards ( we do only 40 cards as required by sense for this week Brain Olympic test).




The test this week is to arrange 40 cards in 3 mins..hopefully Missy will do her best and not help me suffle the cards again in class..

ABC Music And Me

Missy has been attending the ABC Music and Me by Kindermusic for the second month now.

Last month the theme was about "Let's play" wth songs and activities on play, playground, sounds, train, jumping, running, hopping, what you can do with your hands..The story is about Golden Bear

This month, the theme is about "Out and About", pretend play on picnic, sounds of birds, encourage us to bring children to picnic (which coincidently, missy school is organising a picnic to botanic garden next week), the story this week is about Froggy going out.



Quite fun session, as the children are having so much fun and laughters during the class while playing while learning with teacher Angel, from Kindermusic, she really can sing, i heard her during first lesson when i sit in..

Great to see missy having fun !

Mother's Day wishes

Been helping my boss with his document last week, till i feel lazy to blog(write).. but i want to remember this year's mother's day as missy gave me a flower made from her class with her handprint and she tells me "Happy Mother's Day" for the very first time,, which i feel so warming to the heart and feel proud for her as she , at such tender age is able to express her love to her mummy..

My love, thank you :)



She actually told me " Happy Birthday Mummy".. but corrected to "Happy Mother's Day" heee.. cute

Missy & Maths

Last week, we did some maths with missy. using her ducky and the number puzzle, which she did quite well for number zero to four. as she got almost all correct. with some hints, she finally got all right. shall practise more, and add five to nine this week.

She is not interested in dots cards, so i guess this will make do.




now, to practise her letters, i will write A, B,C,D,randomly on her easel, ask her circle the letter i say. so far, she did fantastic job, got all right. shall add E,F,G,H this week.

Since this term no linking memory, i did flash memory with missy instead as home practise, about 4 to 5 cards. adding new cards each day. when she is paying attention, she usually canget all correct. but when she is restless, she will be insisting to get the cards from me and flash to me instead.. sigh. shall work on this more.

Missy going to library Again

two days back, i brought missy to library, again. Trying to borrow some books to
occupy my time during day time when missy in school and bb boy sleeping. Found this book "Taking Medicine" mm.. good one, we've been looking for such book to tell missy when sick must take medicine to get well.

We have hard time getting her to eat flu syrup each time she is having fever, ended up, we have to use suppository (put through backside).

so, hopefully with the book (just like i let her read the toilet book last time), she can understand and willing to eat medicine when sick.




Missy and her new hair band which i bought on our way to the library, she is posing for me.. cant stand her, looks so vain..

Missy & her painting

Missy loves to do painting.. she always requesy " mummy, i want to do painting.." so i have to take out her colouring materials and let her have fun..

she will darw something and tell me , mummy see.. see.. this is big fish, this is small fish.. which is correct, she draws something fish-liked shapes, one bigger than another..wow.. impressive.



then she will draw her banana again, and tell me, mummy, i draw banana.. and just past few days, she drew rain drop thing with broken lines from top to bottom, which she descibed it as raining.. and she drew many dots from top to bottom, which she described it as rain drops.. mm.. my girl can relate things she sees into her painting more vividly now..

usually, i will help her to add more things into her painting like i will add some cloud, and add lighting (zig zag ).. she will then ask me to draw more things.. haa.. we now will draw house, with triangle as roof and rectange/square as house..

it's getting fun to get missy into doing her painting/drawing, we started with finger paint, now, it evolves into more actual drawing and painting.. cool !

she also can recognise more colours now.. primary colour like red/yellow/blue, secondary colour like green/purple/orange.. she still mix up sometimes, but i m sure she will get them right in no time.

she can recognise A, B, C, D (caps) and also their sounds, she knows other letter's sound, but not the letter itself, so i, still trying to teach her as she sometimes mix up like E & F, she always say E is F..haa..

After that, shall let her try on numbers 1 to 10. SM suppose to know all these, but missy hates her dots cards. wonder why..hope she wont hate maths.
