Issac Washed Dishes

Today Issac is so helpful and eagerly wants to help me do some household chores. Thus, I taught him how to wash a cup. Then, he can do it by his own, just because he is not high enough, he was standing on a small chair to do it.

Annabelle Birthday Tadika Brainchild Celebration 1 Oct 2010

Picture 003This year is Annabelle’s first birthday celebration at school.

Daddy had arranged and booked a Hello Kitty cake in light blue colour cream for her from the Bee’s Cake House USJ Taipan.

I have prepared the party bags as well for her classmates.

In the morning we sent Annabelle and Issac to school first.

Then wait for almost 9.30am, we drove again to their school.

Picture 006Her recess time is about 10.00am, with the help of her teacher, we took out the cake and put on a table.

We also asked teacher’s permission to let Issac came out from his class to celebrate together with his sister.

Annabelle was really happy when she saw us were there. She kept on wanted me to carry her.

Picture 009She can only stand still while she was in front of her birthday cake and sang the Happy Birthday song together with her friends.

Issac was the one whom wanted me to carry that time…Confused smile

After which the teachers at Tadika Brainchild helped us to take a family photo of Annabelle cutting the birthday cake.

Picture 016She was ok and eating her birthday cake together with her friends. Issac was happy with the cake too.

The teachers were so kind that they helped to cut the cakes for the children.

We left the cake for the teachers and school helpers too. We thanked them for their kindness.

Annabelle was so happy on this special day. Her first ever birthday celebration at school with friends and family.

Babies & The Scribble

P8070051 When children draw and scribble, something that never existed is created. What joy there is in being able to express thoughts and feelings in this way, not to mention the pure pleasure of using the materials!

Mummy bought a lot of colour pencils, crayons, and lately a art portfolio complete with many art materials such as colour pencils, crayons, pastels, water colour cakes, and markers.

P1011104Normally, Mummy would sit down and gave them some A4 size recycle papers which Daddy brought back from his office. The children would started pick up some pencils and colour pencils to draw.

Annabelle loves to draw circles, and scribble whatever she wants; issac would draw animals, or objects which comes to his mind that time or that day.

Very sad thing for Mummy is that, most of the drawings that both of you drew normally you all will throw it away after your drawing session. Mummy too will throw it away because there were too many, and our house do not have place to keep…So, some of it Mummy will take photographs to keep in as softcopy…

Probably mummy will have to save some drawings up each month and make a book for both of you each year…

Babies & Arts

Baby is just like a piece of white art paper, what “art” can they made? Well, after surfing online and information gathered, both Mummy and you babies can create together. First of all, Mummy would like to start with something simple and educational. Then when as both of you grows, is able to hold a marker or paintbrush, the art learning experiences change.

P8160104Something do not change are as a responsible parents we must:

  • supply the appropriate supplies;
  • model the use of various tools;
  • closely supervise;
  • facilitate baby’s exploration;
  • and never the less – clean up.

P8160103When mummy wants to start up something like this, it had actually triggered all those childhood memories. Piece and pieces was flooded in my mind – mummy’s earliest art experiences:

  • What materials did mummy use?
  • How mummy feels?
  • What was the favourite art experience that mummy encounter?

All these counts, because someday when both of you been grow up, you will experience the same as what Mummy did now.The process is more important than the final product! So, Mummy will try and definitely enjoys each every approach of new art experience with both of you…
