Fairy Tale - Rapunzel

I told Wan Qi quite a few stories before she slept just now. The last one was Rapunzel - the long hair girl story. I am afraid I might have read the wrong story to her as she was quite disturbed about the content of the story. I hope she wont have nightmare. :P

The starting of the story was about a couple stealing lettuce from a witch.

I asked Wan Qi "Is it correct to steal, then she told me it's wrong."


So not so bad. At least there is some moral values that I can teach her so I continued. Then the story went on saying that the witch caught the man who stole the lettuce and demanded him to give her their baby girl if they ever have one.

At this point of time, Wan Qi was a bit disturbed but I thought "Good ! Then it can reinforce that stealing is wrong." But after that when she saw the witch taking the baby girl away fron the couple, she was quite upset about it and she even told me she wants to hit the witch.

But this is not the worse, the worst part is when the witch pushed the prince down the tower and he became blind that made Wan Qi cry. Wow I didnt know that she actually understand the meaning blind plus I thought at such a young age she couldnt be so sentimental .

Anyway, I decided to keep the story away from her since it kind of upset her. :P

Bua Luku Tale

Suddenly, I thought of eating Bua Luku. And it reminded me of Wan Qi and I were eating Bua Luku a few weeks ago. We were eating Bua Luku together and she was making faces due to the sour bua luku and I laughed at her. Then she started laughing too. I was afraid that she might accidentally swallow the seed so I decided to tell her a lie. I told her sternly that she mustn't swallow the seed or else a Bua Luku tree will grow in her stomach and it wil pop out from her head.

Guess What? She looked at me and laughed and said "I don't believe you."

At that moment, I was stunned by her fast response and I started laughing at my own stupid lie. I must say I was quite impressed by her quick response that I shouted at my mum, wanting to tell my mum what Wah Qi said. Well, I remember back then when I was a little girl at the age of 6, my cousin also use the same old lie on me and hee hee it kind of made me ponder about it. haha mama is more stupid than daughter. Oh but can't be blamed back then children are more naive (hee excuse). But truly speaking, that's the truth. Nowadays, I don't understand what the children are thinking especially my P6 kids. They really motivate me to quit sometimes.

Happy Children's Day Wan Qi

Today is Children's Day plus Hari Raya so we got to use our weekend car. Hence, we brought Wan Qi to Punggol Park. She loves kicking balls, thats why we brought a ball and let her kick in the park. She had great fun. This is the Children's Day gift that we gave Wan Qi :>

At the beach @ East Coast

We brought Wan Qi to East Coast beach during the Sept holidays twice. I was a bit paranoid about getting het wet at first as I was afraid that she might be sick. And I bathed her using cold tap water there for the first time so I was quite worried but it turned out to be ok. In fact, I was the one who fell sick after that. Such a lousy mummy :P

Jacob Balla Garden @ 30th August

Slide @ Treehouse. Quite scary for young kids.

Advisable to let children sit on an adult's lap.

One kid who is about Wan Qi's age actually turned
pale after sliding now and she kept saying she didnt want to slide again. In fact, I was quite scared too. :P

At the treehouse @ Jacob Balla Garden

Yipee !! It's the starting of Sep holiday so I pestered Xihong to bring Wan Qi to the Jacob Balla Garden. Actually I wanted to bring Wan Qi there since July as I heard the forum mums talking about it but haven got the time to do so. Finally, we made it there. We had great fun and Wan Qi got to see coffee plants, tea plants, cocoa tree etc. Thumbs up for this place.
