Buddy, our youngest, like his elder sis, loves animals and we believe that for kids to grow up loving nature, we have to let them experience it. Singapore Zoo is the ideal place to cultivate a love for flora and fauna. As working parents, we usually can only visit the Zoo during weekends and school holidays. To maximize our visit, we usually arrive early in the morning. Going early has many benefits: Watch the animals at their liveliest as they wake-up, much like us! Enjoy the … [Read more...]

Singapore Street Art – Haji Lane
Exciting. Evolving. Eclectic. Singapore is a global city that is constantly evolving. The Singapore which our kids will grow up in will be vastly different from that which we grew up in.

Specifically, Singapore's street art. We are no strangers to Singapore’s prominent street art, having met one of the … [Read more...]
OCBC Cycle 2017: Defining Moment for Daddy and Daughter
I’ve always believed that we need to expose our children to outdoor activities that develop their gross motor skills and confidence to master new sports.

As soon as my daughter became physically independent at 3 yrs old – being able to walk, run and jump confidently, we have started introducing … [Read more...]

When ‘Dirt’ is Good – The Benefits of Outdoor Play
Temptation of the Indoors: Singapore’s hot and humid climate can be a strong deterrent for children to indulge more often in outdoor play. Parents we know shun outdoors because of the following reasons: 1) Too hot – Risk of kids getting heatstroke, dehydration or triggering eczema flare reactions from exposure to the heat and humidity. 2) Too ‘dirty’ – Heat, sweat and humidity often make the environment more germy and ‘dirty’. In addition to kids getting soiled, there are always the … [Read more...]
