Was happily strolling around Vivo City with the kids when we saw the area for the rental of electric kiddy cars. The babies saw it and that was it. They went crazy and kept nagging that they wanted to go for a ride. So for the sake of our sanity, we negotiated to take the rides AFTER dinner.
Sorry for startling everyone with my shouting. The kids seems to think that they were driving indestructible bumper cars. I was just worried that we would have to pay for damages if the cars got busted from the crazy banging. Jolie was a little disappointed that her motorcycle turned out so slow. I think it's due to her weight. She's not so little anymore!
Jayden had a time of his life! Driving in a sports car his size must have been like a dream come true for the little car fanatic. His grandma had wanted to buy him an mini electric car but I was against it. Somehow it feels wrong to buy lavish gifts costing hundreds of dollars for a toddler?
Anyways, the kids had a good time. I think this short enjoyment would feel more precious and special rather than owning the car. Haha..

Toilet Roll Race Cars! (June Holidays Art & Craft)
OK, I've made plans for the June holidays. Wonderful fun filled days of arts and crafts and activities. Funny how the days seemed shorter when the holidays began. There seemed to be not enough hours in a day to do any arts and craft! But hey, I've collected a whole cupboard full of toilet rolls. So we are going to do this!
I've decided to do cars because it seems more fun. Both Jay and Jo can play with them and they seemed like a more interactive option than toilet roll dolls or crowns. So we set about doing it, cutting, painting and glueing. And here are our race cars!
This is Jayden's car. He started painting it blue, then later he decided to paint the other half red. I just let him have free reign with the painting and look how nice the car turned out! It's got two-toned paint job! Anger was the designated driver. Grrr!
This is Jolie's car. Nice bright yellow colour with none other than the ultimate blonde driver, Barbie. Matching! (Jolie insisted to be number 1)
This is MY car. I went with the ultimate Ferrari RED! Ok, maybe not exactly Ferrari Red but nothing is more classic than a red race car right? Hee... And my favourite Disney Princess, Ariel, was invited to be my driver. Red!
Making the car was not difficult, but waiting for the paint and the glue to dry took so long! It took almost 48 hours before we could race it. But it was worth the effort. It's so sturdy it could survive the "torture" of my kids. Haha.. Wanna go for a ride?
