<font color="0077aa">Hi mummies,
long time no post... busy as a bee i am!!!
is anyone organising the 2yo toddlers gathering??
sorry i cant help out this time as i'm gearing up for my #2's arrival in abt 4weeks!!

perhaps in the 2nd half of the year!!

kidz, sorry i missed out on your good deals... next time lah...=)

hows everyone's not sooo lil toddlers doing??
registered into schools for 2012 and 2013??

<font color="119911">Pravina:</font> E's CC will teach Letterland phonics &amp; if he continues in fullday there he'll actually learn faster. That's what I found w B1 -- tho she was there like only PT
wink.gif
Bt coz of the longer hours they stay each day, there is repeated exposure. Nt like when kids go 2-3hrs sch each day. This is my observation lah. I actually did enquire w Zoophonics bt then I was worried coz B1 was learning Letterland system. I dunno if e kid gets confused w learning another phonics system. For her thankfully e kindy she's in now uses e same Letterland one and her teacher "complains" that B1 always knows e answers during phonics lessons til she gotta tell my gal to stop &amp; give her (e teacher) e chance to finish teaching

Hi mummuies....it's such a hectic 4 months even though I returned to work for 4 months, it felt like 4 years. Non-stop deadlines and paperwork...

I still havent start searching for a childcare or playschool for Maverick....only starting in June when I'm more free...
 
Hey mummies,

I was thinking, if the turnout for the 2yo bb bash won't be too big, we can probably have it at my IL's place @Kovan.

We can probably rent a party package, or rent some big toys for the toddlers to play with?

I'm not sure if it's too costly, but a party package with slide+swing+see saw+bouncy castle costs $188 for 4 hr rental fr SingaporeToyRental.

http://www.toys4rent.sg/index.php?option=com_frontpage&amp;Itemid=5
http://www.toyrentalclub.com/bdays_rentals.html
http://www.toyrentalworld.com/

Any mummies have experience renting from the above websites?

Or if it's too ex to rent, should we just toy-pool again?

I'm suggesting the date to be on 21 May, since this Sat is polling day and next Sat is Mothers' Day.

What do you mummies think?

<font color="119911">jean,
audrey and i were discussing about having it at a McDonald so dat the kids can have some party, I choosing one with a playground. wat do u all tink? That will b veri fuss free.</font>
 
<font color="0000ff">Kris:</font> Now you all start talking about venue, I wonder if we wanna try Sol Playground Cafe @ Turf City. It's not fast food, has indoor &amp; outdoor play area, nursing room too. Free parking @ Turf City too &amp; close to expressway. http://sol-group.com.sg/solplaygroundcafe/about-us/

For Mc, can also. My family frequents the one @ Ridout Garden, along Queensway is popular with my kids coz it has playground + pond (many resident terrapins there). Free parking + Far East Flora is next door so my kids enjoy walking there &amp; looking @ flowers &amp; plants + resident squirrels there too

Folks,
I just realized Mothers' Day is this Sun, not next! So 14 May is also a possible date. ;)

Kris,
I don't mind McD. What's the rental like? Any idea? Do they have party package?

Ya the kids will love the playground, so it's better to get one with big play area.

Kidz,
Sol Playground Cafe looks good too. Are we looking at the party package? I thot $100 for 2 hrs is not that ex. No min. pax, right? Also we can only choose either indoor or outdoor, but not both, right?
 
Jean: I think McD is $12 per child only. Adults will be based on their normal rates.

keke.. quite a sticky boy.. cant leave him alone.. will cry for attention.. sleep already also want you to carry.. put him down.. wake up immediately and start crying.. sighz..

What about you? How are you coping with 2?
 
<font color="0000ff">Jean:</font> I haven't enquired @ Sol bt if we dun wanna book pkg, mayb just gather there.

Mummies, any1 visited Atlantis City @ Delta Sports Complex b4? It's like Fidgets/Go Go Bambini, etc. 10mins walk fr Redhill MRT. Heard it's small &amp; quiet. Thought of bringing my two coz I'm single parenting fr Fri-Fri... Atlantis is like $4/hr if buy their Playcard (good for 5hrs of play). Otherwise $6/hr. http://playtime-recreations.com/
 
eviangal,
My #2 is quite good boy. Can soothe himself to sleep. only recently he wants more attention n ppl to talk/play with him! He's quite a cheerful boy. Either that or we've leveled up on parenting skills, kekeke.

He's turning 6 mths in a few days time. So fast!

I've started work since 2 mths ago and both #1 and #2 ended up in the centres. ;(

Kidz,
Let's take a vote. In the spirit of polling day, haha. McD vs Sol.
 
<font color="119911">McDonald's rates start frm $8.50 per person, comes with a door gift. I will get a cake for Mothers' Day too. If everyone is fine, we will go with 14 or 15 May k. Do put down your name n ur preferred day so i can make some arrangement as there r limited timeslot per day. Do indicate hw many child(ren) is going on that day.

<font color="119911">Ladies,
do take note there is a change in timing as the 2pm slot was taken since some did not trf by last weekend. I had already made payment for min. 12 kids, so those confirmed, do go ahead n trf to me n drop me a line. Thank you.

Catherine: only need to trf $24 for the 2 Ms, the adults can pay for own meals upon arrival.

Jean: Do trf $12 for 1 child. The McDonald staff will be conducting games, entertainment for the kids. There will also be door gifts for all kids frm Mac. Let's all be there by 430pm to meetup and chit chat before the party starts k.

Sorry, have not tt over the weekend. Wanted to do so tonight. But the new timing is not very good for me. Going for mother's day dinner that night. Will advise again.
 
Kris: How abt other McD outlets? All fully booked? I echo eviangal's sentiment that the new timing is not very good coz too close to dinner time (and nap time for my kiddo).
 
Kris, thanks for organising.
Kidz, thanks for informing me, I'll be going.
