Numbers / Fine Motor Skill : Stickers 1-40

Little one has learned to 1-29, so right now I'm helping her with numbers 30-40.

This week's project is matching numbers and pasting stickers.


Materials:
  • Paper
  • Printer or Pen/Pencil
  • Plain Stickers
  • Marker
Steps:
1. Design and print rows of circles with numbers in the middle, or you can also draw and fill in the numbers on your own if you do not own a printer.

2. Using a marker, write numbers on the stickers.

3. For something a little more difficult, try to jumble up the numbers for the next set, or use smaller size stickers. :)


It's a very simple task for toddlers but if you're going thru new numbers with little one do sit by his/her side and read out the new numbers to him/her. :)



Gave little one a jumbled up piece and she got confused after finding number 1.
Would probably keep the jumbled up piece for another day. :D



How do you teach your little one numbers? :)

907g of Kettle Brand Krinkle Cut Potato Chip (Sea Salt)

On Labour Day, we were out grocery shopping as usual..
and got a huge bag of chips!

Usual size of Kettle Brand Potato Chips is approx 142g.
The one we bought is 907g!
Approx 6 times the size of the usual bag of chips!

This is a photo of the bag of chips standing next to my seated child.

Yes, you can barely see my child in this photo because that's how huge the bag of chips is. :P


Hubby and I with the huge bag of chips.

The best part is that the chips only cost $9.90!
Just as an reference, the normal bag of chips cost around $4.95.

Super worth to purchase for PARTY~ :D

Review : Uniqlo.com/sg/

April was really month of shopping for me so do expect some review/shopping related posts for the next few weeks? :D

I own a top from Uniqlo and really love it, however I find that the items in the shops are often out of my budget (SAHM = not much budge to shop).

When I saw AIRism Tops on online exclusive sale I ordered a few for my family. :D




Item :
Kids AIRism U-neck Short Sleeve T-shirt, Men AIRism Crew Neck T-shirt (Short Sleeve) and Women AIRism Scoop Neck Short Sleeve T-shirt 


Price : Kid's Tee $4.90, Men's Tee $12.90, Women's Tee $9.90 (exclusive sale price)
Bought 2 kid's tee, 2 women's tee, 1 men's tee and 1 legging pants for S$62.40 including free shipping!


Service Review :
Overall okay but the delivery service can be improved.

Ordered on 22nd April, receive confirmation and tracking code on 23rd April.
On 24th April delivery was unsuccessful, remarked "Delivery could not be completed due to inclement weather conditions". This I understand as it was raining quite a bit the whole month..
On 25th April, Delivery personnel did not deliver parcel, instead he/she left a notice at my gate! I know this because that morning my husband is at the kitchen fixing breakfast for me. He was at most 2metres away for the door and no one knocked or even press on the door bell! We saw the notice 2mins after he left it there! It's on a Saturday so I was forced to collect the parcel 2 days later (Monday 27th April).


Product Review :
All 3 of us, hubby, little one and myself love the tops! It's soft, very comfortable and really suitable to be worn at home or as a inner piece. It's stretchy and really feels cooler wearing it (awesome for the recent heat wave).



Would I recommend it? :
Yes I would. Especially their sale items! Value for money and the quality is really good. :D

how-old.net says I'm...



This is quite fun but don't be too serious about it..
I tried many photos, some of it shows a number that's above my actual age and some like the above photo, shows that I'm half my age..

As long as we're young at heart who cares if we have 超老 face right? :P

ArtnCraft : Umbrella (Easy)

Had some "free time" with little one and decide to do a little craft project with her.


It's been raining the whole month so Umbrella seems very fitting for this little project? :D




Materials:
  • Umbrella shape printout
  • Colour Pencils/Crayons/Paint (anything to colour the printout)
  • Straws
  • Tape
  • A clothes peg with handle/hook (optional)


Steps:

1. Design and printed an umbrella shape using Ms Word.

2. Cut out the shape and colour them.

3. Tape Straws to the back of the umbrella shape

4. If you have the clothes peg with hook you can clip it to the straws to make it look more like an umbrella but it's fine without it too. :)


Now get ready to hear your little one sing "Rain Rain Go Away" on repeat...




This is one of the more simple craft that I've done, do you have any simple but fun crafts to share?
Feel free to share them with me! :D

Review : Memory Foam Mat


Yes, online shopping again~

Okay just a short story... The few times that I met the delivery man at the door as I leave my house [he was delivering things to my neighbour (whom I presume is also a online shop shopaholic like me.) :P] Instead of "hello" he would say "don't have your parcel" so that I can leave home without waiting to see if I have any parcels with him. :P


Item : Stripes Memory Foam Mat
Price : $5.30 each (additional charge for shipping)


Product Review :
I was using another mat that my mum bought and also the cheap Ikea one that I bought a long while ago.. Both didn't feel that good as it doesn't dry our feet well and feels rough on our feet. This foam mat is good. It's very soft and does it's job well. :D

Usage :
Open package, put mat on the floor with the softer part facing up. lol.


Bought 1 in beige and 1 in purple.

Beige matches the colours of my house.

Purple is really sweet looking. :D

Will I recommend it? :
Yes I will. Even though it's not cheap it's really comfortable so it's worth the price. I love how it feels under my feet. Every morning it makes me happy when I step on it before I step into the bathroom.
