Exhausting weekend

Image
It started with Da getting a high fever on Thursday night. So we canned the usual Friday night plans and had dinner home. I also took Cayen to Jerome's 100 days party on my own. Cayen had a good time as Marilyn and Marcus had prepared some nostalgic old school snacks for the kids and his highlight was the bubbles that entertained him for a long time.  As Da was sick at home, I decided to bring him on a bus adventure where we randomly boarded the first double decker bus that came. It was so random that I didn't even know the bus number after I was comfortably seated. I had to ask my fellow passengers who might think I'm quite strange . I soon figured out that we are heading towards Boon Lay interchange , with the bird park and science centre in between. As I didn't have my membership card with me, I managed to convince Cayen to alight at the science centre instead,  We then spent the next 2-3 hours at KidsSTOP which was funny and educational.

Artsy weekend

Cool place to learn about nature and insects .. Literally

Godma Shu Hsien brought Cayen out for an outing a few weeks back. This is a place where he can learn about insects and explore freely in a safe environment without adults screaming "no" at every corner . Best of all, everything is indoors and air conditioned - great perk for heat fearing adult companions.  A little bit of a hidden paradise. Will go again for sure.
