Another field trip fo Zu Yan.

The Malaysia International Landscape & Garden Festival 2008 that being held at Perdana Lake Garden, Kuala Lumpur 19-27 July 2008.


Due to, I spended too much time on looking for the entrance and parking lot. We are unable to spend much time to feel the breath of freshness, see the world in hues of colours, experience it like no other and see a display of over 80 sculptured gardens.

Don't even mentioned about enjoying bargains at some 50 units of retail lots selling garden-related products.

Zu Yan enjoys walking along the path while admiring the scultured garden especially those have fountain and fishes in pool.

Zu Yan deleted some pictures while browsing his pictures in the camera.

We enjoyed riding on the shutter tram, the golf cart services that bring us the Lake Garden.

And we saw PURPLE CHILLI PADI. Zu Yan was excited about it because they are purple, the first colour that Zu Yan knew how to say and Barney is purple too.











We saw the KL Hop-On-Hop-Off Double Decker Tour Bus Services boards at Perdana Lake Garden Stop Station. One day, we will go "KL Hop-On-Hop-Off Double Decker Tour Bus" .

Next, culture theme should I choose "Transportation "?

Field trip to Pantai Remis, Jeram, Kuala Selangor.

This ia a free and easy trip for ZuYan.
He points and shouts fish! fish! when we walk down and stop right in front of the sea.
No fish was seen, but he related the fish with the sea.


Zu Yan under the sun near to sunset time. He was digging in a pile of seashell with a twig he found at the beach.




He shows this anxious facial expression again like the one in Bagan Lalang, Sepang.






Collecting seashell with Granma.


What a big yawn! Feeling soooo relax at the beach.

Quiet Time with Ice Age II Stickers...ZZZZZZZZZZZ

We are not listening to tape or reading books for quiet time tonight.

We works with the stickers.

I think this is the first time he really get a sheet of sticker from me.

I started to peel it off from the sheet and stick on his body parts and say the body parts while I stick on the stickers on his body parts.

He sat queitly and let me stick on at first.

When I had stick on almost the major part of his upper body parts, I peel it off and stick it back onto the sticker sheet.

He requested to do it again. This time he points and says the body parts and I stick.

He carried on to says toes and bottom of the feet, where I did not do it earlier.

Well, we discovered another good quiet time and play n learn ideas.

Practical Life : Cutting exercise

Found a child safe, practical and usable scissors made of plastic for Zu Yan's cutting exercise.

Before this, I saw plastic scissors at some store but is not usable at all. The child will get frustrated by using those kind of scissors.

Exploration of order

Another self initiated stacking and nesting activity done by Zu Yan using material from his surrounding.

Matching object to picture

Matching model of dinasaurs to picture of dinasurs.

The activity was introduced to him two weeks ago and left on the shelf for him to work on.

During presentation, Zu Yan did not pay attention like an older kid do.
And I know, although he is playing and running around, he is watching what I am doing.
As usual, I will call him to see my completed work and share the joy of completing the activity.
Then invite him to try or put it away by acknowledge him where the material goes.

And wala.., today he took his initiative to work on the material and he matched them all correctly.

















Zu Yan's complete work.















Zu Yan is matching the model dinasaurs to the picture of dinasaurs.

Listen to what your body tell you.

For the very first time, Zu Yan pulled off his pants and sit on the potty all by himself.

I was doing washing in the kitchen, it was a surprise when I came out of kitchen and see his pants on the floor and he is sitting on the potty.
