After five years of kindy, I know the drill. Term 4 is Concert Term. I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with the year-end concert. On the one hand, it is so cute to see them on stage. Such precious moments! On the other hand, getting them ready for stage can be a draining process for the teachers and children alike. When concert prep gets intense, my kids tend to get a bit crankier and less keen on going to school. Yet again when they get on stage, there is a sense of accomplishment. They ... read more

Transforming into a 7-year Old: Noey’s Rescue Bots Birthday at Tag Team Inc
Just before October slipped away from us, we managed to squeeze in a party for Noey. He was rather disappointed when I told him that his party had to be postponed but he accepted it as I promised him that it would most definitely happen. As the haze started to ease, we set a date for the last day of October. When party day rolled round with clear skies all around, I don’t think anyone was more relieved than I was! It’s late but Happy Birthday Noah! This year’s party was planned with a ... read more
Reading the Classics {+ Giveaway!}
I’ve got some serious bookworms in this house. Not that I’m complaining, especially since I’m the one feeding the habit! I don’t shop a lot these days (except to clear my endless grocery list, alas!) but if there’s one thing I love to buy, it is BOOKS. Specifically books for the kids. It is all too easy these days to pop a few books in my cart over at Amazon, and the next thing I know, we’ve got new books to fit into our bulging bookshelves. Just the other day I had an amusing conversation ... read more

Celebrating 10 Years at Corner House
Last weekend, we celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. It isn’t everyday that you celebrate 10 years together (more like 15 years really, if you count our years of dating) so I took the liberty of arranging a weekend of celebrations, starting with a dinner date on Thursday night. My husband kindly reminded me last year that I only get a two opportunities a year on my birthday and anniversary to get a fancy dinner off him and I took that advice to heart this year! I gleefully browsed through ... read more
Cirque du Soleil’s latest show is TOTEM-ly Awesome
If there was one show on Singapore’s events calendar that I’ve been looking forward to all year, it is Cirque du Soleil’s TOTEM, which opened on Wednesday night under the Big Top next to Marina Bay Sands. Cirque du Soleil probably needs no introduction. As we told our wide-eyed son, it is “only the best circus in the world”. With Cirque du Soleil, the fact that you will be wowed by the amazing circus acts showcasing feats of agility that will leave you breathless is a given. But more than ... read more
Throwback: 22 Oct 2005
This day, 10 years ago, was significant for several reasons. For one, it was the first day ever that my mother-in-law woke up to find my husband awake before her. It was also our wedding day, and this is how it went. 10 years felt like a long time then, and yet, here we are. Our wedding feels like a lifetime ago, and there's nothing like looking at old pictures of youthful faces to reinforce the fact that it really was!! 10 years on, I still do. So much ... read more
The Art of Speed at the Playeum Centre for Children’s Creativity
During the Children’s Day long weekend, we decided to visit Playeum’s Children’s Centre of Creativity which recently opened its doors at Gilman Barracks. If the name Playeum sounds familiar, it is because they have been on the scene with play-focused creative activities for kids for several years now. I’ve always enjoyed their events, like The Big Draw, and am excited that they have their own space now! We couldn’t make it for the media preview but decided to go check out the space on our own ... read more
