'Holiday' at the grandparents

The weekend Jianming was going to be busy with his duties as a 'brother', the three kids and I took a little 'holiday' to my parents.

Josiah and Joanie love the chance to stay over with gong gong and ah ma, and this time was no exception. And even though I was there, ah ma was their go-to person, so I too enjoyed a little break :)

Living in the east without a car, we don't venture out to the west (where my parents live) too often. So it was great fun for the kids to check out Bukit Panjang Plaza that weekend.

While mummy was paying for lunch, the kids skipped off to the playground area with gong gong and were treated to a ride on the motorised vehicles. Josiah selected a tractor and Joanie, a bike ($3 for 10 min). There was also this Spiderman bouncy castle cum slide structure that looked pretty fun ($4 for 10 min of play I think).

Whee! Josiah sliding down this really tall slide after climbing the playground structure (below). It's a pretty challenging playground, more suitable for older & taller kids. Was pretty impressed that Josiah navigated it with relative ease. 

Joanie could only sit on the swing and play on the smaller slide, but enjoyed herself nonethless.

For those living in the west with older tots, this would be a great place for them to expend their energy.

We ended the outing with some cute (free) balloon sculptures. Green t-rex for Josiah & heart wand for Joanie. 
Not surprisingly, the kids didn't want to leave in the evening. Joanie even wanted to change back into her cupcake PJs (she only gets to wear this at my parents' place) thinking that would mean she wouldn't have to go home.
