Turning play into cosplay

If you think cosplay is only for young misled adults, you haven’t been to Royce Kids Gym at Liang Court. There you can find cosplay costumes for all of your fantasies… okay, maybe just the fantasies of children. Don’t know about you, but I have a thing for uniforms. I got excited when Pangzi decided …

和别的小朋友一样，小展峰到了一个挑食和难以吃完饭的年龄。在开饭的时候，只要不是麦当劳，他几乎都会诸多借口，不把食物吃完。忍无可忍，就无需再忍。非常时期就得采用非常方法， The Hunger Games 作战计划得马上进行。。。

Two hours of flirting at Westgate Kids Club

A great idea popped up when I heard Westgate in Singapore had newly opened its Kids Club on Level 5, above the outdoor playground.

Swim like a Gillman

Pangzi thought he was going swimming when I brought him to Gillman Barracks one annoying afternoon. “Daddy, what’s Gillman?” he asked. “Erm, a man with gills,” I replied. “Daddy, what’s gills?” “Erm, something to help fishes swim underwater.” “I want! I want!” That was easy. So off we went to visit the Centre for Contemporary Art where the …
