Playtime at Mothercare (Father's Day Edition)

Toddler E had a really nice time at the last Mothercare Playtime so I signed him up for the next session on 31 May. It's limited to one session per month which seems fair since it's a free event with material provided.

This session involves making a portrait of daddy as a Father's Day present. I swear toddler E picked the green Frankenstein template on his own. Zero prompting from me. I swear!

I like that the session is only 45 minutes long. Toddler E has a somewhat short attention span (like most toddlers at this age) and the teachers (there were 2 lovely ladies facilitating the session) kept things going at a good pace so that he didn't get bored and run off.

At the start, while waiting for any latecomers, the kids are given a picture to colour in. 

Oooh, dog!

Once everyone is more or less settled in, the crafting begins.

I helped with cutting out the hearts and toddler E told me where to stick them onto the paper.

Happy (Belated) Father's Day!

Toddler E is an avid painter. He loves it more than he liked crayons and markers. Whenever he is in a bad mood, painting lifts his spirits almost instantly.

Playtime at Mothercare (West Coast Plaza)

Took toddler E to an activity session organised by Mothercare Singapore on 22 March 2013. It was an arts & crafts session with drawing, cutting pieces of paper and gluing them onto a picture. 

It was one of the few group activities that E has participated in and he had a good time. He's not so great at the listening part, but he loved the colouring, gluing and pasting.
