Turf city - "scrumptious cafe"

Outing with my buddy to to Turf City in the morning at 10:30am. I had an early lunch before going out. They too had an early lunch and proceed to the newly found "scrumptious cafe" with playground and let us play till we are tired at 2pm. They shop for a while at giant supermarket and decided to take the shuttle bus to Clementi MRT and changed venue to Tiong Bahru Plaza. I slept during the journey for about 2 hours and went home at about 5pm.

Strange, today I am not so keen on the trampoline.

umbrella stroller

We went to "Toysrus" at Suntec city outlet and bought an umbrella pink stroller ($39.95) for intention to bring along on my 2nd holiday trip to HKG this weekend! Hooray! But it is worrying at the same time for the swine flu case which 1 Mexican tourist has it and quarantine all 300+ guests in the hotel he has stayed.

@Wang cafe

"hi-5" to daddy. Mimic mummy usual practise on photo-memory on me by saying "chic chak", then put the card on her pocket and turnaround. This action also practise on school.

phonics...it works!

We went to Library this evening after my dinner. While mummy was browsing suitable books for me to read, I took out books on the shelf. Daddy whispering to mummy that I am trying to pronounce the word on the title book. Mummy stood next to me and heard me saying the title book "Peedie" though not quite accurate. To prove them again, daddy pointed to the book next it and asked what is the word on the book title "Ollie" and I tried to pronounce it. Both mum & dad were stunned that I try to pronounce the word though they have not taught me. It all thanks to ...PHONICS!...which gives me idea how to pronounce it. I can pronounce words accurately with phonics ending with "k", "g", "t", "ch"....like the word "cook " (emphasis the ending 'k" sound), "cat" (emphasis the ending "t" sound, "touch" (emphasis the ending "ch" sound).

Mummy spoke : I read that it is not advisable to teach tots at young age with phonics as it will confuse them with whole words but judging from my girl's action, this proves to be wrong! I am glad I have started to let her listen to phonics cd as young as when she was about 7-8 months old and she loves the song very much! Previously, she tried to say the word "dolphin" with less accuracy and I will tell her that dolphin starts with "d" for "der der der"....dolphin. And now she can say it quite clearly.

waterplay @Vivo

Another exciting day for me .....waterplay @Vivo with sis Kana & aunt eileen again....hee! hee!
As usual, we set off at 10:30am and on the way, it was raining heavily. We walked around the giant supermarket before proceed to have their early lunch @Food Republic. Aunt May joined us later.

When mummy about to get me down from the highchair and to her astonishment, my short was all wet and shirt too. Mummy realised it was because I was wearing the swimming diaper for intention to play water once we reached Vivo and surprised it leaked! Oh dear! Mummy quickly changed to a clean shirt and short she has brought and hence I was half-naked when it was time to play with water. It was a scorching day and I didn't play much, just walked around. I was amazed sis Kana don't mind the hot weather and have a lot of fun playing with water. Aunt eileen's helper tried to lure me to play with water and she almost slipped! Oops!

Still prefers to lie comfortably in my stroller :)

Fidgets and new discovery of playground

We set off to Fidgets at 10:30am with (of course) my buddy sis Kana and aunt eileen. It was pretty quiet over there probably it was Monday, unlike the other time was so crowded!

We played till about 1:30am and nap from 1:45am - 3:45am. In between, they had lunch and shopped around the shopping area before heading to a coffee house for a drink.
To mummy's surprise, this cosy coffee house provides a good playground and a hidden big area with foam mat and trampoline and mini-rock climbing! Sis Kana and me woke up and they let us played for a short while. I had fun with the trampoline (my 1st time!).

It was a new discovery with lotsa of fun play which added to my choices :)

@Fidgets - managed to climb up & down the slide on my own. Zoom!

It's fun to play with trampoline!

sim lim square

Mummy dressed me up newly bought dress and off we go to Sim Lim Square to buy a laptop as the current laptop LCD screen not working well. They browsed around on the newly opened Iluma shopping centre next to Bugis Junction while I was sleeping before heading back home for my dinner.

hat @kiddy palace

As usual, mummy had to wake me up for my class as lately my nap time has changed and nap longer now (3 - 4 hrs!). Hee! hee! I'm attentive at class and when comes to my favourite ABC song, I immediately stood on the table and do like a "catwalk" style and the teacher and Dylan's grandma had a good laugh.

After the class, we went to Marina Square to meet daddy.

@kiddy palace, I picked up a hat and said "mirror" and mummy brought me to the dressing room to view how supervain I am ;)
