Ohisashiburi, indoor playground!

Still remember we used to go to indoor playgrounds quite a bit with Kai. Less with Yang. The last time we went to one, it was the one at Centrepoint - super sad. We were happy to see one just downstairs but no chance to go until Friday - it was child care centre closure day!

It was considered peak period coz of Teachers' Day. So $19 each for Kai and Yang, but $5 for Yu coz he's under two. And there is same-day re-entry! We spent over an hour there in the morning, went for lunch and a nap, and back for over two hours. Yu had to go back earlier coz his fever came back but it was not enough for Kai and Yang!

Yu scooping sand

Yang pouring sand into some machine

And there was a kaypoh instant here. He saw an older boy in front of him playing with an excavator. I didn't notice until I heard him - he's pretty loud! - telling the boy, "That's not a dump truck. That's an excavator. *pause* Are you a baby??" Hoho!!

Kai pouring sand into a similar machine

And waiting for the sand level to go down before pouring again

Not the first time I thought he might make an engineer...! I mean, there's all the LEGO creations he's making...

Yu was very brave!

And a bigger kid kind of adopted him at the slides

Kai saw them and told her that Yu was HIS brother. "You think he's your brother??!" Then he proceeded to go play on his own! Though later he came back and guided his brother up and down the slides too.

Yang had a great time on the ball merry-go-round!

The building room where two great structures in the morning crumbled in the afternoon

The playground was quite the madhouse in the afternoon. At one point, I was just one arm's length away from Yu when a horde of six or eight kids came rushing past me towards Yu. They brushed past him but he got scared and cried! So poor thing!

I pretty much left Kai and Yang alone, just checking on them occasionally to make sure they hadn't left the playground. They had some arguments with kids here and there but well, they should sort out their own playground problems. When Yu left, I sat down to watch drama using the mall wifi haha!

Sito came back from reservist just in time so he grabbed dinner for N and came back for us. Mum brought dinner for the kids so everyone got to eat and shower early. Sito and I went out for date night :)

I realised that it was not a very tiring child care centre closure day when the kids were so occupied. And better yet, they're growing up! In a year's time, I can just sit and let all three run free, yeah!
