P.Seed..

I bought Crayola;s Beginnings Todoodles washable first marks ad some mahjong paper for Bree.

i have not given it to her yet.. just bought the mahjong papers yesterday..

not sure about crayons cos i had feedback that Crayola's breaks easily and i don't want Bree to eat it

 

[elita]

thanks lenny for the tip on the books. i shall go hunt them down!

 

[pumpkinseed]

Thanks for feedback. I've been hesitating on the crayon issue! Saw one that was made of beeswax today n looks like a small rectangular eraser. I prefer this although they sell the version that looks like normal crayons too. Def does not break easily as the owner showed me his son's used set. Nice colours. Will research more before purchasing. Would love to hear from anyone else, thanks

 

[lenny_susanty]

Cindy..

have u moved into your new place? hmm.. i just placed order from kinokuniya and they are delivering my books to me on Thursday.. i don't know if i can make it to ask them to add on.

anyway.. another book i wanted are out of stock and i placed order for it.. will have to wait 4 - 6 weeks.

 

[missycandy]

eh... which crayons do not break? one way or another, crayons do break.. if im not wrong, crayola sells those triangle versions as well...

anyway, also tempted to get playdough!!! but it will prolly end up in her mouth... sigh... il try with crayola's crayons 1st! waiting for the stuff to arrive... the spree organiser just placed the order yesterday.... sigh...

queenie:: JIA YOU!

 

[prosper]

oh tell me about it, i am so keen to get crayons too. search high low for the spree and found it. Is $18 for samll pack. I find it quite expensive. Tangs do sell too. Maybe shall check it out.

 

[sun96]

queenie
jia you!!! welcome back to work force!!!

lenny
my boi don't seem to like books... tried b4 to read to him but he'll snatch the book fr me and flip on his own for few secs then throw it to one side... -_-"
show him flash cards, he'll take whatever i show him n play w it... tsk tsk tsk

 

[sun96]

prosper
u got PM!!!

 

[missycandy]

ehhhh prosper - wad crayons u buying? the one im buyin nt so expensive leh... must go dig it... but closed le... heh... or... if u wan it now.. i think cn try tiny blogspot.. the one who sells test strips... do a google k? if im nt wrong she has ready stock...

queenie - im ok any weekday... hurhurhur! let u get used to ur new plc 1st ba.. hee

lenny - too late liao.... the festival over.. plus i didnt go... hee...

hmmm maybe this sat we shld lay dwn big pieces of mahjong paper, get some crayons, paints... and let the babies go wild! lolx.. but doubt the condo will allow the mess right? =x

 

[missycandy]

oops jus checked. she doesnt have it. hee.. the one she has is Fabric crayons. hee

 

[pumpkinseed]

missycandy, good idea!! If someone brings mahjong paper, I will buy my crayons today and bring it so whoever wants can try.was wondering how to entertain the kids...
Guess its up to each parent to watch their kid and make sure they don't draw on walls?
Let's wait for prosper to give her opinion first

 

[val1977]

halo mummies, guess everyone is excited abt this sat bday bash

BTW, I will bring a few swimming diapers to share around...

Queenie, wah so happy for you gt a new job le

Jiayou gal!

Books and drawing, ya my gal love books too..we also bought a few books for her to learn
Using crayon to draw..haa so safe for them ah? Cos my gal love to put fingers and things inside her mouth so I am paranoid
But drawing activity is a good idea for this sat bash for those who are not swimming

Eh side track abit..yest was on leave and finally went for facial after 2 years, my skin was so clogged and dull, eye circle so dark!
That my therapist gt so many things to do on my face,hehe
Feel so rejuvenate and refresh now...I hv very sensitive combi skin so only do organic facial,
must try to continue this facial regime monthly
Mummies, must still pamper ourselve oki?

 

[lenny_susanty]

Cindy,

what are the titles that you want? all the four?

i will be going out shortly, Bree has class today.
you want to SMS me your HP no?

I PM you mine

 

[lenny_susanty]

Cindy,

Each book cost SGD20.00, sms me..

 

[lenny_susanty]

sunshinebb,

our bbs span of concentration is still short.. i was told to read books by section then continue later in the day or tomorrow.

Bree will throw everything off our bed, her chair or sofa.. but she will pick up the books and ask me to read to her..

after reading, she smile smile at me, making funny faces, clap or laugh.

of course.. she is the one who turn the pages.. am still letting her turn her cloth books but not my emily lim books yet.. i don't want her to tear the pages cos i am a book lover.. heartache.. hehe

 

[scrumpee01]

We can bring the tods to swim this sat? I also have swim diapers to spare but M size. Who wants?

Calling Missycandy:
already transferred $60 to you via ATM for the cupcake class last nite, do check.

 

[val1977]

Queenie, ya the only cons gng to IFC is afraid of getting sick more often, but dun worry pray and ask God for protection..

[missycandy]

eunos is pepper lor... =P

mango - eh i sms u tonight oke...

pseed - r u talking abt tadoodles?

 

[pumpkinseed]

missycandy, it's called Stockmar, made of beeswax and childsafe materials. Apparently, even if ingested, it's ok cos it's produced according to food industry standards which is stricter than toy industry standards
http://www.stockmar.de/index.php?shopCatId=0013c079a8a0a6bd&amp;currCatName=colouring+blocks

Not cheap that's why I was hesitating. $19.90 for 8 blocks in tin case. They seem to last very long though. The boy had used his set to colour 10 full pages (yes I actually counted the pages haha) and the crayons looked barely used. But if I buy to let all the babies try then, I just justify the purchase. Don't you love my rationale?

 

[prosper]

hey hey,

calling east side mummies,
There is one bp willing to sponsor helium balloons but however we need big car to transport those balloons to our bash this sat.
Anyone who is volunter to help on this?

ps: i actually got some balloons but not helium type.

 

[scrumpee01]

One more thing, for mummies going to the bash this sat, any of your babies drinking Gain IQ? I have a 400ml stage 3 (from 1 year onwards). Can give to whoever wants it. Cos my boy is drinking Nan 3.

 

[sun96]

missy
pepper seldom online... but she dun drive right?
nvm, prosper already asking ard... ^_^

p.seed
color 10 full pgs, the crayons still look new... wow, tat's worth for $$ ^_^
will hv a look at yr set tis sat... can?

 

[ftmummy]

hey mummies
we may not be able to make it to the bash this saturday cos oli was admitted to hospital on monday due to chest infection and initial stage of pneumonia... now still in hospital, but hopefully he can be discharged tomorrow...

 

[ftmummy]

p.seed
i will collect the cups from your place... will contact you.

 

[sun96]

srumpee
yr boi is on NAN3 huh, did u purchase the NAN 3 in box form? think cost ard $56.10

 

[sun96]

jtho
sad to hear abt tat... hope oli faster discharge n recover, meanwhile u take care too...
*hugs oli*

 

[prosper]

p.seed,

NO prob, i can supply mahjong paper. Not to worry about the place. It is big enough for them to play. NOt worry about the messy part, should be able to clean

 

[jenocn]

Hi Mommies!!! Wow so long nv come in n realise I miss alot of the discussion!

Re:crayola
I saw it in Vivo toysrus, v tempted to buy for my daughter but i afraid she will put it in her mouth

 

[pumpkinseed]

jtho, oh dear, so sorry that he had to go to hospital in the end. Gros bisous a la pauvre petite xxx

prosper, cool!

sunshinebaby, sure thing

missycandy, since you bought the crayola already, can use that first and if they break or Kirs uses it up, then can KIV the Stockmar ones. Anyway, I'll bring on Sat and we all try try see how it is.

 

[prosper]

Jtho,
will pray hard for your boy. Hope he get well soon. You must be damn worried.

 

[strawberrys79]

Hi P.seed,

[scrumpee01]

Jtho

Sunshine
