Me: Mummy, where are we going today?
Mummy: We're staying at home.
Me: But it's a holiday. I want to go somewhere.
Mummy: We're not going anywhere.
Me: Why not?
Mummy: Daddy has to go to work.
Me: Why does daddy go to work and you and me stay at home only? Blah blah blah...
And I went on and on, asking all kinds of questions and throughout the day, I kept moaning "I'm so bored... mummy I'm so bored, I'm soooooooooo boooooooooored..." although mummy has already planned out some activities for me.
This was what we did today... our first holiday activity:
Dora The Explorer "Sand Magic"
Pouring black sand on Dora's hair
Unfortunately, this activity couldn't keep me occupied for long. I found it too difficult, messy and dull. Not even halfway through, I gave up and told mummy "I can't do it. I don't want to play anymore". Even with mummy's help, I just abandoned it and walked away :( I obviously didn't have the patience and interest to sit through the entire activity. No wonder I was still bored. Mummy had to do it for me and I would pop by every few minutes to monitor her progress while commenting "Wah, so nice!"
The final product... not so nice *mummy paiseh*
ish.. i can't stand sand art. so messy :P and yeah.. always the mommy end up doing it :D
ReplyDeleteIt's more fun to play this at shopping complex where a lot of kids around. More Yit lau
ReplyDeleteLooks like quite a tough piece of art to do for a child below 5. Even I will need patience to finish it up. Mummy did a good job on it though :)
ReplyDeletelook nice, she is good in art! This is one of your daughter's ability.
ReplyDeleteOh..I've also bought a sand art for Shenny, planning to do it during this school holiday. Hope she can finish it by herself. Keep my finger cross.
ReplyDeleteNot bad la..Nice art piece.
ReplyDeleteI think it's really nice! the colours are vibrant and all within the lines, haha
ReplyDeleteGwen is the opposite. She is very patient doing sand art which I find it too bored coz I have to help her mah..haha..bad mummy. She did one Dora sand art before too.
ReplyDeleteYour sand art very nice leh. So colourful.
Oh my girl love sand painting, but obviously I'm the one doing 97% of job. Find out it's better to start with dark colour sand like black to avoid dirty other light colour.
