Who says we need to buy toys for children?

KK is putting her thinking cap on when her little brother says he wanted a device which he saw the security guard using to talk. I pretended not knowing what is it but KK swiftly cleared the air and said she knows what CY wanted and she will make it for him. She conveniently took some tapes and some wooden blocks on her own to get things done. Upon finishing the end product, she showed me and explained that policemen use it also to talk too. Haha...I really love this girl's creativity very much!

Of course, CY was very please about it and happily playing with it until today. And with this, I shared a new word with them - Walkie Talkie.

We made a flower and a butterfly

Craft work routine is the main thing in our homeschooling activity. This week, we created something out of the finger knitted yarns. We made a flower and butterfly together.

Hiking in a little hill

Brought my 2 little toddlers up on a hill for a little adventure on my own and see what we found..rubber seeds(biji getah). This is the first time we see its shells still intact with the seeds.

KK is usually afraid of walking into jungles by she did well today...no complaints though  she held on tight on my hand in the whole journey. I kinda distracted her by relating some of the stories which I have told her before to the place we are at, told her to check out some songs which the Beatles/insects are singing to welcome us, to look at the beautiful falling leaves as if we were in France experiencing snows years back and of course, picking up these rubber seeds. It's her first time too! I believe it was a good start with an end in mind hoping to bring her for camping in a forest one day..I shall bring her here more often.

While CY is the courages boy who wants to do the boy thing....look for sticks and treasures(stones) or anything that is not in his collections yet. Being a 3yo, he would usually ask me to carry him when he sees the long road in front of him. Again, he needed to be distracted in the whole journey. As he was holding sticks, I told him to take care of me and KK with the sword in his hand, immediately he is empowered like an warrior! It was a success,he almost finished through and back the whole journey, except just a short slope back to the car. Good job!

I really love this hiking and will do more often in our routine.
