Eviangal, i have tried literally everything from baking to grill to soups, chinese to western. Used things like herbs, heavy cream, parmesan cheese, different types of bread etc. Adding seasoning does not work. Adult food does not interest him too. At the most when i drink soup, he will only be interested to drink 1 or 2 bb soups. Thereafter, he just wants to disturb me. Best part is he can go around the house pretending to eat and drink water (can even do the slurp sound) with his teacups and lunchbox and spoons but when there is food on the spoon, he will start with his "ecstasy" head shaking.
 
<font color="0077aa">Joie:</font> Tx 4 e info. Ok, we wait 4 e votes 2 come in

<font color="119911">Powerball:</font> Bastion juz pecks @ his food. Bt one thing is diz: muz reali let him swallow everything he has in his mouth 1st. Coz he may open his mouth &amp; ask 4 more then hamster it all b4 juz spitting EVERYTHING OUT!!!!

<font color="ff6000">Dollhouse:</font> Oh, oh, saw such a nice one @ ELC juz now. Full colour w furniture, 3 storeys &amp; can accommodate Barbie-size dolls. Full height of dollhouse 117cm. $590 b4 discount.
 
Powerball: Wah.. Like that really headache.. I really buay tahan too when Val refuses her food at times.. So I understand how it feels. Could it be teething? So he rather drink milk than eat?
 
Aiyo, these toddlers of ours *shake heads*..

Maybe the toddlers are a little tired of their blended food? I was thinking if I was fed baby food everyday, I will also protest at some point..

My gal enjoys my turkey and cheese sandwiches, my vegetable soups, macaroni and chees etc.. I *bribe* her by saying she can have some of my food after she finishes hers. Sometimes it works but then there are times when she too will shake her head non-stop..
 
Joie: Your Turkey and Cheese sandwiches sounds sooo.. yummy, Macaroni and cheese.. Hmmm... No wonder F will want to eat yours.. hahaa...
 
Btw, someone had asked abt a gd maid agency, I hv tried a few n like apple maid at orchard plaza. They have an k line maid datebase so u can chk out their maids n then just call them to process fr u. Very professional n FAST!!

hi girls,

cant believe time has flown by so rapidly with a kid in tow... sorry, dont really have time to read all the previous posts but i popped in to ask if theres any recommendation for playgroup in clementi/west coast area? [ok at least i read this folder's worth to know that kidz is trying playdays and staccato isnt very gd...] has anyone heard of a gd one in clementi woods or sth [sorta recollected in my vague memories]? what about appletree?

cheers and have a wonderful tuesday!
 
hi pinky pink...i am a may 09 mummy , though my kid is born is april 09 (came out earlier than expected)

i delivered at raffles hospital. not too bad..i like that its not overly crowded..sometimes i go TMC or MT A to visit i find its quite crowded...other that date, food wise ok bah..coz i was mostly famished..so i ate most of it.

i think pricing wise about the same as TMC n Mt A

is there a gynae u wanna see at raffles?
 
<font color="aa00aa">DTS Mummy:</font> U update me 2, ok? Coz i also dunno much abt playgroups in e vicinity - onli CC. Saw banner dat Dolphin Playsch opening in Clementi West, tink blk 741. Bt datz CC. My problem nxt yr is B1's session @ Faith Kindy starts 11+. Btw, u KIV dat if u keen on Clementi Woods Kindy, get ready 2 reg nxt yr for 2012 Nursery class :)
 
Hi Kidz and DTS Mummy, i got a boy born in July 09 and also exploring playgp or CC around clementi/west coast vicinity.
If you dont mind travelling a bit further, a friend strongly recommend Creative Thinkers at Jln Jurong Kechil (near Beauty World). I heard good reviews on Clementi Woods, Pat's schhse too.

pinkypink, who was ur trial teacher at stacatto? If its the very soft spoken indonesian gal, she cant control the class well - I attended the trial conducted by the founder herself, think she's called huiming or something? she's good..any other music classes besides kindermusic and this? thinking whether to sign isaac up for nx term as will take a break from JG next term likely and cont jan, yours still at JG right?
 
Kp, yeah was some skinny soft spoken lady, forgot her name. Anyway other than lack of class mgr, the classes r all v small, I find it less fun. Anyway, you can try magic fiddler at orchard also.

How many terms of JG has Isaac done? I'll probably still b there next term. Might send sunay to odyssey half day from next yr. Their curriculum looks fun!
 
Hi mummies,

If your gynae is Dr Adrian Woodworth from sengkang, Pls share with me your experiences.
Is he ok with natural birth? Cos I dun prefer c-section.
How much is the hospital bill of Mt A and TMC?
U can PM me…thanks.
 
pinkypink, odyssey at fourth ave looks nice and spacious in the picture
happy.gif

It's a childcare? $1300 for half day, is that expensive compare to other childcare center?
Are your family pictures up on Chen Laoshi wall? I saw Pei's family photo on the playnest english wall
happy.gif
 
I have no clue! I think it's expensive but it's quite convenient n nice plc plus I like the outdoor element. Am planning to go n see it one of these days.
I think it's more childcare than preschool but thr curriculum for morning is fun. Afternoon is mostly nap n bath, etc.

Don't think my pics r up yet... R urs? I didn't go for Friday lesson cuz there was a case if HFMD in my class n I wanted to b on safe side..,
 
Yes, it's already on the wall, together with KP's as well.. I was asking KP where is Pinkypink pictures, no wonder I didn't see them.
Ya $1300 sounds expensive for half day, especially if full day is at $1500
happy.gif

Do you have problem getting replacement class if you missed any class? We didn't go for class today as Keene's got a cold, so I'm wondering how to make it up.. he's already in class 3Xs a week

Any mummies interested to join in for some fun?
 
Gallop, no mc = no make up. Sunay had bronchitis earlier this term n missed a week, I had an mc from the pd so I did make up at forum for 2 sessions. That means sunay had class 4x for those 2 weeks lor.

For playnest Evans road is almost full, vacancies r mostly at forum, so can make up thr

Saw gd reviews in expat forums -- e parents said the curriculum has lotsa fun &amp; craft stuffs. Got bilingual prog 2. My 'research' thus far:
1) Zesty Spot @ Pandan Valley -- great reviews on expat forums &amp; highly recommended by B1's reading sch teacher, unfortunately got waitlist + itz only 9-12 prog
2) CS Montessori @ Bt Timah Plz or Tiong Bahru Plz -- gd reviews 2 bt onli 2hr prog. Also I like e fact dat itz in a SC - I kan grab kopi, do pedi, grab groceries, etc.

Of coz 4 any of e abv, e most wonderful wld b if I hv driving licence liao!!!!
