Bento Fun

Next week will be Glennedine’s final week attending play school. Can’t believe how time has flies. The play school will be organising a Christmas party complete with Santa’s appearance to give out presents to the kids.

Not sure if there will be any performances for the party as I did not anything about it! Who knows if they have been secretly rehearsing with the kids??!

It will be nice and fun to see the kids perform! It will be even better if they have dances using those remo lollipop drums which really add to the festive mood!

Our little Diva turned 4 on Monday. Can’t believe how fast she has grown and very soon she will be attending kinder (K1). And that means she will get to have all the cute bentos which her brother used to get!

And here is a snapshot of her happy day… with her floral cake which she specially requested…

I’ve decided to not have any mega birthday parties for the kids… at home! haha I really loathe the after party cleaning up! You could never imagine the aftermath of such parties especially for kids their age…

The idea of having a simple bento party in class which I did for Darrius’s birthday last week was the best bet! The entire class was happy and I don’t have anyone complain that they were not invited for the party.

Believe me, it is so much easier to make 20 over bento than having to plan for the party… Maybe I might do a bento party at home next time for the girls… since they never had any birthday parties before. Just that I’ll to get some cheap vinyl banners for the deco and plan on the games for the kids. It is definitely  easier than planning the different platters of food to serve.

Darrius’s and Glennedine’s birthday is about 10 days apart so I am always so busy planning on their birthday cake projects during this time of the year.

Glennedine will turn for next week and I have yet to decide what cake to bake for her though she has already told me what she wanted! Yes, my kids always have their own themes!

Now, I just have to decide which cake to bake!

Last weekend we attended hubby’s company’s Children Christmas Party which was organised by the Social Club. It was held at Myuna Farm which is not too far away from our place.

The kids had loads of fun as there were jumping castle, bungee pull and merry-go-round. On top of that, the kids were treated to free face painting, candy floss, free pony and train rides as well as sculpture balloons. At the end of the day Santa made an apperance and gave all kids some candy before they collect their Christmas presents.

Glennedine was extremely happy as she got a really nice Snow White costume. Darrius was not too happy with his as it was some Ninja Turtle science experiment toy. I think he will be more excited if he can get the challenge coin instead!

Anyhow, everyone enjoyed themselves
