Play Mobilization

ZY loves to play with her wooden blocks and playmobil set (which she inherited quite alot from her daddy). We can spend an hour alone playing these and recently ZY "creations" are getting more and more interesting. I must say its really true that these classic toys are far better than those battery operated ones.

An Army camp?


A Theatre Show!
See my fairy castle :)

Some Paintings

Was under the weather these days and ZY is also down with fever, flu, cough with lots of phlegm.. hence did not update blog recently..

Anyway, ZY did these 2 paintings last week.

This was painted by using sweetcorn, but the effect was not that good.


This was painted using those Styrofoam that wraps apple.

To My Teachers With Love

We decided to withdraw ZY from her playgroup this term as she is still adverse to going to school and started to having nightmares again after I told her that her school is reopening soon after the June holidays. She even vomited all her breakfast on the first day and refused to put on her uniform, hiaz.. She was only willing to walk with me to her school after I've repeatedly ensured her that I'll be going into the classroom with her. However, due to H1N1, all parents are not allowed to accompany the kids into the classroom. ZY noticed what was happening and started to cling to me and was on the verge to cry. So, I've no choice but to bring ZY home without even stepping into the classroom (I don't want to break my promise to her as I've told her that I'll be following her into the classroom).

After discussing with the teacher-in-charge, Mrs Yap, she suggested that we withdraw ZY for the term and see if there is any improvement. Really don't know what to do as we failed to get anything from ZY regarding her reasons for suddenly refusing to attend school.

Anyway, I decided to make some cookies for the 2 lovely teachers and enlisted ZY to help making them.

Tracing ABCs

Recently I bought some tracing and dots-to-dots books from Popular bookstore for ZY. I realised that ZY is quite slow in learning the alphabets hence am hoping that these exercise books will help.

My Fairy Princess

We did this sometime last week. Not knowing what to draw, ZY suggested that we paint the fairy princess that was on her apron. This piece was a bit difficult for ZY as there were many areas that needed steady and precise painting. So I might say this was a combine effort from both of us :)
