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...]

Review of A Peter Rabbit Tale
SRT’s productions have always been exceptional. But since it has been a few months since we last watched a SRT production, I have forgotten how good they are (blame it on Mommy brain!). This weekend while solo parenting, I decided to bring the kids to watch ‘A Peter Rabbit Tale' by SRT’s The Little Company. To be honest, neither my kids nor I have read the original Peter Rabbit’s Tale and I only know the plot vaguely from the media release. However, after watching, I would rate the play … [Read more...]
