Entertaining your children with DVDs

Recently, we received three DVDs for review which has come at just the right time to keep the kids entertained during the school holidays! For those days that are too hot or when it rains, we will usually catch a movie. We have received Back To The Sea; The Care Bears: Totally Sweet Adventure and Mumfies Quest. They are all available to buy now from Amazon or any good retailer.

My Childhood Toys

Recently, I read five decades of childhood obsession written by Oxford Open Learning which deeply interested me. I can totally relate to it! I still remember my first bike (BMX), playing with marbles and so much more.
To join in this project, I made my list of 10 craze items from my playground days. Born in the late 70s, these are what I played with.
1. Playground
In Singapore, land is scarce, so there are so many high rise building. The majority of people live in flats and have common playgrounds to share between 6 or so blocks of flats. This is an example of how they looked like! The one in our block of flats was much smaller than this one though.
2. Barbie
She is my favourite! I used to have two Barbie dolls but not Ken. My parents refused to buy me Ken as they didn’t want to encourage boys at that age. I was always told to avoid boys until I finished my university.
