Kimchimon's play date at the indoor playground

On 15 August, I brought Kimchimon to the indoor playground, Waka Waka together with my friend, Feng Ling and her son, Matthias. Matthias and Kimchimon are of the same age. So we thought it would be a good idea for them to have a play date together.

Waka Waka is located at the Annex@Furama,  
407 Havelock Rd, #05-01, Singapore 169634. We took a train from Buangkok station to Chinatown and changed to bus 51. 

We were required to book a time slot in advance. Each time slot is 2 hours. We were also required to purchase a ticket that allows 1 adult and 1 child to enter. I selected this playground as sanitization will be carried out after every session. This also means that each play time will end 15 minutes earlier for sanitization.

Upon reaching, we checked in using the Safe Entry and have our temperature taken. Then we proceeded to the counter to fill up our particulars. When we entered the toddler play area, Kimchimon didn't have the reaction that I expected. Hahah. This was his first time to the indoor playground. 

Do remember to bring socks for yourself and your little one in order to enter.

The toddler area was quite decent in size comprising of a ball pit, a slide, a play house and some toys for kids. I think Kimchimon likes the ball pit alot. He had fun throwing the balls from the ball pit. He also like to mimic me pressing on the hand sanitizer dispenser (he even complete it with the hand rubbing). He liked to follow the older kids around too. I was abit worried that Kimchimon and Matthias would start fighting. Luckily that didn't happen. 

They had a long slide for the bigger kids too. I was so tempted to put Kimchimon on it to see his reaction. But since he's still young, I decided not to do it.

The 2 hour session ended quite fast. And we didn't got to try the food there. I brought burgers for the kids to eat though. We then brought the kids for lunch at Din Tai Fung where they fell asleep even before we entered.
I think Kimchimon enjoyed himself?

Kimchimon and Achilles tendinitis

Kimchimon and Achilles tendinitis Last year, Kimchimon was complaining of having pain in both of his feet (heel to be exact) for quite a while and it got so bad that he cried whenever he took a step and refused to walk.  We first brought him to a TCM nearby as I was alone with Kimchimon with a lot of groceries when he refused to walk. I thought TCM might be a good idea as i don't want Kimchimon to take so much medication. The physician told me that Kimchimon might have flat foot like Dillon, which was why his feet were in pain. He mentioned that kids in his age won't usually experience that much pain and was quite puzzled with Kimchimon's extreme pain. He advised Kimchimon to rest his feet as much as possible, and probably soak his feet in warm water to help ease the pain. He also mentioned that wearing shoes with comfortable sole. He then proceeded to do some Tui Na on Kimchimon's feet. Kimchimon's feet did got a bit better during the weekend with rest, however, t...

Our New House - House Hunting

After Kimchimon turned 1, I felt that maybe it was time for us to find a home of our own. My mother-in-law's place was great, very convenient with supermarket and the train station just right at our doorstep but this tiny human needed a bigger and more toddler friendly place. This post will be about how we got our own home. Getting a house in Singapore is never easy nor is it cheap. We had some options available: 1) Build-To-Order Flats (which is not an option as it would take about 5 years to complete during the Covid period and i wanted to move out as soon as i can)  2) Sale of Balance Flat - these are flats which were leftover or the previous owner had a change of mind during the last launch (the ratio for Chinese is always 0!) 3) Resale flat (the only option for us since it is readily available) Before looking for a resale flat, I went to HDB's website to calculate the approximate cost of the house that we could afford and the type of subsidies we were eligible for (you can...

DIY Toys for Kimchimon

I had a T-shirt that Kimchimon likes the penguin print so much that I had decided to make a rattle toy based on the print. This post will take you through the steps to DIY your own penguin rattle toy and a busy board. Here's the step-by-step on how to do it: Materials you will need: - Plastic from cornflakes packaging or crinkly paper - Fabric of different texture ( I used felt, jeans, FBT shorts and my skirt) - 2 big and cute cute plastic buttons to attach the wings to the body (not too small, so they won't eat ingest it)  - ribbons if different colours and textures for sensory  - cotton for filling   Tools that you will need: - needle and thread for sewing or a sewing machine - scissors To start off, I ordered some cat bells and a teething toy on Shopee. I also went back to my mom's place to scour for some old clothes of mine for the body and ribbons to make the tags. Firstly, I drew the penguin pattern onto a piece of A4 size paper. You can download the patter...
