Woodgrove Halloween 2013

It was 2011 when we first attended the Woodgrove Halloween event held yearly. Read about our first visit here and see how all the girls have grown up in just 2 years.

This yearly Halloween Party has since evolved into a much bigger event, with lots of people coming from different parts of Singapore. We saw many families even taking cabs to come early just to soak in the atmosphere of Halloween.

 

  

 

It was really nice to see so many different people walking around in their Halloween costumes and makeup.

   

 

  

This year besides the usual candies, a family was giving out luminous light sticks too. Halloween is a season of giving and sharing too!

 

We had fun, hope to see you next year!

Unlimited Fun @ Marina Barrage

Fun is doubled when it is free!

One definite perks of working full time in church is to have mondays off. And usually the places are not so crowded, it’s like we booked the entire place just for our family.

 

We have been to Marina Barrage for a number of times, but every visit is still so fun for the girls and they were able to find new ways to entertain themselves. This time was to splash water on the walls and check their own reflections. Creative!

 

While the girls were having their fun, I was happy taking photos of my beautiful wife.

 

Marina Barrage is indeed a nice place to relax, just bring your own picnic snacks and you can spend a cheap and fun day with your family.

 

Cruzee - A Simple Way To Learn Cycling

Sponsored Review

Joey is now in P1 and Jayne is N2, and one skill I feel they have to learn is cycling. In the past few years, we have bought several bicycles for them, those with 2 tiny supportive wheels for children.

However, it seems like it’s taking a long time for them to learn cycling, especially when balancing is the key. Thanks to Cruzee, the girls now have the perfect balance bikes to learn cycling.

Cruzee is a no-pedal run bike, suitable for kids age from 1 to 6. The seat and handlebars are adjustable so it’s still workable for my 7 years old girl.

Weighing at only 1.9kg, the Cruzee balance bikes are easy to bring around.

 

Balance, coordination and confidence develop as the girls explore the world on 2 wheels.

  

Just a simple push off with the legs and glide through and focus on the balancing. That is the proven way to learn cycling the fastest way.

Check out the short video done by Joey.

Hesitate no longer, if you are also like me, fretting on how to teach your child how to cycle, then Cruzee Balance Bike may just be your best help.

On-the-GO

Product Review

Alright, this is the first review post I am writing on the latest wireless earbuds, Plantronics BackBeat GO 2. So far I have been using it for about a month. Bringing it along to everywhere I went. My life has never been the same ever since I had this amazing gadget. Listening to music is no longer a hassle in places I would never have thought possible. Here is my list.

Gym Workout
Finally I can listen to my favourite music while doing my training. Without the troublesome cables in front, I can feel totally safe to concentrate on the weights and not about accidentally pulling off my earphones. And with the wireless feature, I am not worried that I would accidentally pull the cords and pull the phone out from my pocket. Perfect!

 

In the pool
Had a chance to bring the family out to Legoland Water Park just a few weeks back and it was an excellent opportunity to test out the Sweat Proof / Water-resistant feature. Worked like a true beauty! Especially when we were just floating along the lazy-river, it was indeed a lazy-afternoon enjoying both the sun and the music. No problem with the splashing water around me too.

 

On the way to work
One thing I realised while wearing the BackBeat GO 2 on my way to work, I am no longer bothered by the tangling cable in front of me when I have my bag on my lap. This is extremely convenient especially when I carry a bigger laptop backpack and with BackBeat GO 2, I can comfortably enjoy my ride and also my music. Excellent!

As you can see, I am really a person who moves quite a lot. Hence, the wireless feature BackBeat GO 2 is offering is definitely my number one reason for recommending it. And along with the active lifestyle, the Sweat Proof feature was also tested and proven. I even took the challenge given by the Product Manager and rinse my earbuds under running water to get rid of the sweat after one of my running night. Hey, it is still working well!

Another feature that stood the test was the Tangle-Free feature. With its flat cable design, the coiling up and keeping in the pouch was done without much hassle. And one of the coolest thing about this product is the pouch, because it is not just an ordinary earbuds pouch, but it is a charging pouch.

With the 4.5 hours non-stop playtime on the BackBeat GO 2, it is usually more than enough for daily usage if you are just using it during your commuting from home to work and back. However, if you decide to use it in between like during a gym session (approx. 1.5 hours), then the charging pouch comes in handy. Charging becomes so much easier without having to constantly find a wall plug. Blessing!
