Rise and Shine Carnival 2015 @ The Float + {Giveaway}

{Media Invite + Giveaway of tickets!}

We always look forward to this meaningful event ever since they started it in 2013. Rise and Shine Breakfast Carnival 2015 is back again for the 3rd year and it is getting bigger and bigger! This year it is held at The Float @ Marina Bay to accomodate to more people and more booth games.

Rise and Shine Breakfast Carnival is an event to promote healthy dietary habits especially to highlight the importance of breakfast for everyone. And of course it has to start from young to inculcate this habit that hopefully will last a life time. Do you know that 1 in 3 children has unhealthy breakfast?

Imaginarium @ SAM (March holiday activities)

I brought the kiddos to one of our favourite place, SAM (Singapore Art Museum) at 8Q today. We always remember a couple of years back, we had a fun time engaging in art fun with interactive art work in the Art Garden theme from Children’s Seasons at the same place. So, today, we are back here again after reading a fellow mum blogger’s review on Imaginarium.

Imaginarium – A Voyage of Big Ideas is also part of the countless celebrations for Singapore’s 50th birthday. It is a theme inspired by the crescent moon on the Singapore’s flag, a symbol of a young nation on the rise with the capacity to dream big and think large. All the interactive art works are inspired by artists from Singapore and the region. It is interesting to read the write up beside each exhibit and activity room on the artists’ ideas.

Cornerstone @ Bishan Park – great for mum-daughter date

I had a hard time finding a unique place to bring my mum on my birthday this year.
I want to bring her to a cafe or restaurant in a relax setting good for mum and daughter date. Last year, I brought her to Food for Thought in Botanic Gardens. I thought that was almost a perfect place for our date. In the end, I found one restaurant which could match that and the best parts were it serves fantastic food and is wholly situated among the greenery. This is Cornerstone in Bishan Park.

Doctor for a day @ Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital

Doctor for a day was back again recently! You can imagine my anxiety and fast fingers to register both my elder kids for the event before the time slot keeps changing to “sold out” within seconds! This event has been a highly sought after kids fun event since 2012.

What exactly is this and why is it so popular?

It is a day for children age 5-10 to encounter what goes on for doctors in a day in a REAL Hospital setting! Just reading on the program line up will get parents like me to register without much thought because we know our kids will enjoy themselves very much!

There are 6 stations for these little “doctors” to attend to.

1st station: The Doctor’s Room – where the kids learn about some basics of hygiene in the hospital. They learn about the 7 steps of handwashing, why the need to wear a mask and shower cap. Continue reading “Doctor for a day @ Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital”

Cafe Melba – a great place for mums gathering while kids play

Happy 2015!

We found a great gathering place to start a brand new year!

When my Secondary school friend watsapp the 4 of us on where would be a good place for a long overdue meet up with kids tag along, my first thoughts went to Cool de Sac, Rochester Playhouse, and Food for Thought. However, I had brought the kids to these places several times and would love to try out a new place, well recommended by some bloggers, called Cafe Melba. And so we went to Cafe Melba on the first morning of 2015 and upon setting foot in this cafe, this quickly become a top mums gathering place on my kids-friendly restaurant list.

Cafe Melba is tucked inside Goodman Arts Centre on Goodman Road among many rich and awesomely huge bungalows. We took a wrong turn and were pleasantly surprised to see many glamorous houses on Wilkinson Road! I never knew, beside Bukit Timah, there is also another rich man’s lane in the eastern side of Singapore. Continue reading “Cafe Melba – a great place for mums gathering while kids play”
