Game Play Ideas, Imaginative Play and Home Playground
As a SAHM of 3 kids, I have the privilege to watch my kids grow up, witness their milestones as well as fun play and learn with them. And now with a baby around, our play time is always at home! Just like other kids, my kids get bored easily at home and as their mum, it’s important to keep them entertained through games, toys, activities and plays at home. Gameplay should also be fun learning and a few gameplay ideas I’d like to share: 1. Colouring, I love reusable & easy to wipe silicone colouring mats. It helps to calm my kids down for a while & improves creativity. 2. Play dough, Blocks, LEGO, Puzzle , Building bricks/sticks, Board games, Kinetic sand, etc. These games are excellent for their motor skills, creativity and brains development. 3. Imaginative play toys such as kitchen set, complete with food/fruits/drinks toys for kids to role play as Chef, waiter, customer etc. Imaginative play is not just limited to toys, but it’s also dressing up as a character kids want to be. For example, my 6 year old son loves to dress up as a fireman, complete with helmet & toy equipment, it helps with his speech development. Imaginative play toys are not necessarily to be expensive, it can also be easily DIY at home such as using cardboard boxes to build a fire engine car (kids can help with the decorations) or a farm house for farm animals (kids pretend to be farmers) imaginative plays are unlimited and always fun when parents join the kids together & role play as a family. It promotes bonding too. 4. Home Playground. It’s important to keep kids active no matter they are at home or outside. Benefits of being active are stronger muscles & bones and better sleep. And also physically active kids are more likely to be motivated, focused and confident. Would love to share about Friso’s ongoing promo (1 March to 30 April 2019).

Hi mummies! Anybody have sent their newborn to infant care (IFC)? Have a few question since I am sending my first born to one! 1. How early did you send your baby to IFC? Mine is going 3 months. In your IFC, are there many infants around this agegroup? 2. I know IFC will help to shower your baby, but do you still shower your baby on your own? Or do you let the teachers handle this? 3. Is it expected to get picture updates from teachers daily? Especially for infants, since they do not have any class activities yet. Do you ask for picture from the teachers? #pleasehelp #advicepls #firstbaby #firsttimemom #infantcare

Hi mummies, I am looking for some opinions from you. I am a first-time mom. My boy is now 21 months old, he started cc since Last month. At first, of course, he cried badly, but after a week, he started to enjoy and was so happy every day we put on his uniform. He would say "kul kul" (school) 😀. Although he actually still cries during class sometimes, I decided to try full day since last week. He sleeps so poorly, 20 - 30 minutes. He's usually a good napper at home, 2 - 3 hours. His teacher said that sometimes he cried badly when he woke up and disturbed other children. I know it's still less than 2 weeks he move to full day, and I've read many moms said it takes months for their kids to adjust. But I am kind of feeling guilty and keep asking myself if my LO is not ready for a full day. Should we move back to half day? Also, the teacher said he is still not comfortable with other teachers except her and still not playing with other children in his class. My LO sticks to her everywhere she goes. I have to admit my LO is a slow to warm up kid and shy. So it makes me think, is he not enjoying the cc? It's been 1 month, and he is still not making any friends. Should I put him to more playbased class instead of cc? #FTM #pleasehelp #firstbaby
