Cuisine & Culture the Chinese Family Way
A few months ago, I applied to host an André Rieu’s Week of the Waltz Party via Come Round and was lucky to be picked to host it. Last Tuesday, I received two parcels. Inside there were André Rieu masks, eye masks, pens, a poster, banner, snacks and along with three sample discs.
This Monday, we had a hectic day. After picking the children up from school, we quickly got everyone in for the Dora And Friends Twitter party.
Fortunately I had already prepared all the party stuff beforehand, with a lot sandwiches and finger foods! Before we sat everyone down, they were all given an admittance ticket and walked on the red carpet.
We then started off the first activity to introduce Dora and her friends to the children. Next, they all had to listen carefully for each individual characters’ facts in the show. All children were really concentrating and didn’t make a noise. But there was a reason for that – they knew they would get one lollipop for each question they answered correctly! They didn’t do too badly and managed to guess 8 questions out of 10!
This coming Monday 3rd November, I will be taking part in Dora and Friends premiere Twitter party where there will be some fab prizes to give away. Join the party on Twitter with @etspeaksfrom, @ukmumstv and @NickJrUK from 4 pm to 6 pm. Remember to tweet using #doraandfriends hashtag to win some great prizes and games to take part in, so make sure your laptop, PC or smart device is ready to go as the party starts!
