If we ever dare scold our child for being playful, we would first have to look at ourselves.  Both dh and I are like playful kittens, so this time we went to play with prawns.   It was dh's recommendation.   Is there a difference between fishing and prawning?  Yes I think there is.  Fishing is an even more trying activity than prawning.  At least in an hour, you can see some prawns being caught but fishing would require much more patience.  I have never heard from my older sibling that he could do fishing in an hour, it's usually a day but for prawning, we could do it in an hour.  Nevertheless it still trains one's patience.

Today's our first try at it as a family.  Daddy caught one, Mummy caught one and Baby caught none but she had fun at the photography and tugging at the rod.

As usual, we do not like crowds so to watch a YOG event is never a priority in our list until........my dear child was given a ticket to go and watch an event at the eleventh hour.   It seemed that the teacher realised that there was no representative from her class and that was how she got the ticket....  I struggled a little initially as the venue of the event was not stated in the letter of consent.   I was not sure how crowded the place would be and being a tiny person at her age, I was afraid of stampede .....sounded like 杞人 

What better way to start off 2010 with a new year resolution...  If you still don’t have one, then perhaps you wanna consider shedding off those extra kilos by doing regular exercise.

One of the easiest and simplest way to lose weight is running. There's no need for expensive gym equipments or club memberships. No detox or drugs required...just a good pair of running shoes, running attire and you can start pounding the pavements.

Here are some tips to get started:

Remember to do proper warm up & stretching exercises before attempting to do any physical activity as it will help to prevent injuries and cramps. It is also advisable to do stretches after the exercise as it reduces the after effects of aches & pains normally felt the day after.

Bond, play, eat and have fun! There is much more to life than studying and kids learn best when they are getting enough outdoor time and excercise.

Visiting a museum or a place of interest can give us a more in depth experience and teach us more about art, history or science than just reading about it.

Unleashing your little one in a park, garden or playground often leads to hours of fun and learning. Some Singapore parks offer the opportunity to see fauna and flora that you don’t usually get to see in the concrete jungle we are so accustomed to.
