It's time for a fun-filled ride~ My 2 year old daughter Maeleth was so excited to know that she's going for the Tayo Station Media Preview today that she slept early last night without fighting sleep. That's how much she was looking forward to checking out this new indoor playground in Singapore! Tayo Station is located at E!Hub, Downtown East, 1 Pasir Ris Close, Level 3, S(519599). I've always associated the Downtown East area with kids-friendly activities and a fun day out because of Wild Wild Wet and Escape Theme Park, so it's awesome to know that another cool kids venue has opened for business!

When Pretend Play becomes Dangerous for your Child - A Christian Parenting DevotionalHi fellow Christian parent! There are natural laws in this world that are true whether or not we want to believe it. For example, gravity causes objects in the air to fall. You can’t walk off a cliff and expect not to fall down. Likewise, there are also spiritual laws that govern this world. One of which is the creative power in our spoken words. Why we love Pororo Park Singapore

All opinions written in this post are honest and my own. This post also contains affiliate links so I may make some commission if you purchase products through my links.) You may be wondering, why bring my little one to an indoor playground when I can just go to an outdoor playground for free? Well in my opinion, the only obvious benefit of those free outdoor playgrounds is that it is free. However there are many good benefits that your little ones are missing out on when you only bring them to outdoor playgrounds and not indoor playgrounds. After trying many indoor playgrounds in Singapore, Amilee and I still prefer to bring our 2 year old daughter Maeleth to Pororo Park Singapore in Marina Square. This is the full address: 6 Raffles Blvd, 02-29, Singapore 039594. You can visit their official website here. Being a super fan of the Pororo animated series by Iconix, Mae regularly requests to go back to Pororo Park, and there are many great reasons to bring her there. 
Maeleth is a true Pororo fan! She loves watching the Pororo animated series, playing with Pororo toys, and wearing Pororo-inspired clothing!
Even Mae's bedsheet, bolstercase and pillowcase are Pororo-inspired!
Sleep Training 2 Year Old Kids: Helpful Methods and How this Journey grew my Faith
I share tips and my experience of sleep training a 2 year old: my Daughter Maeleth Sarah Goh.
In this post, I will be sharing about my journey of sleep training my two year old (24 months old) daughter Maeleth Sarah Goh: the methods that have worked well and also how it has been a journey of faith for me. Getting Mae to fall asleep and to sleep through the night has always been a struggle for us so far. But I feel that the sleep training progress is very encouraging - I see light at the end of the tunnel. Yesterday, it only took Mae 30 mins to fall asleep and night - I was so happy! By sleep training, I mean having Mae fall asleep on her bed by herself without patting her to sleep or carrying her until she sleeps. Throughout the whole process, I am by her side until she falls asleep. 10 Tips for Teaching Kids about Jesus: How Christian Parents can Raise God-Loving Children27/1/2018 10 Tips for Teaching Kids about Jesus: How Christian Parents can Raise God-Loving Children
As Christian parents, teaching our kids about Jesus should be our highest priority. It is the best present you can give to your children. Let's raise them to be God-loving children! Image credits: www.kidsofintegrity.com .
In this blog post, I will share 10 tips for teaching kids about Jesus and how you as a Christian parent can help your child to come to know and love Him. These tips are based on what we practice with our daughter and also what we plan to practice with her in the future as well. As I am writing this, our daughter Maeleth Sarah Goh is 23 months old, turning 2 next month! Reflecting on the past 2 years, I have made some parenting mistakes and also have had some parenting wins. However I feel that the most important thing I can do for my daughter is to help her know Jesus. I want to raise her in a Jesus-exalting environment, and let her start benefiting from the sweet life of having a covenant relationship with God from a young age. You see, I was not born into a Christian family. My parents believe in a diluted version of Taoism/Buddhism and I believe that because I was raised in such an environment since young, the devil had many opportunities to attack me and hold me back from enjoying the good life that Jesus died to give me. It was not until I turned 17 that I received Jesus as my Lord and Savior and found out all that I had been missing out on in life. My wife Amilee was also not born or raised in a Christian family and went through many setbacks and hardship in life too. We both feel that all that unnecessary hurt that she went through was because Jesus wasn't her Lord and Savior yet. Therefore, it is our deepest desire for Mae to receive Jesus as her personal Lord and Savior from as young an age as possible and grow to be a God-loving child. 10 Kids Photography Tips to Help you Take Cool Instagram Photos of your Child

| You are reading: 5 Important Questions to Ask When Choosing a Diaper for your Little One and Why We Prefer Huggies Platinum Pants! Sharing a loving hug with Maeleth. |
(This is an Advertorial brought to you by Huggies.)
Choosing a diaper for our 22 month old daughter Maeleth has been a crucial decision for us ever since she was born.
We have noticed that a good choice leads to her being happy, while an unsuitable choice can cause her to be cranky.
Additionally, it can mean either more rest time for us, or lack of sleep for everyone and more cleaning up due to dreaded unexpected leakages.
Furthermore, a suitable choice helps Mae to have healthy skin, whereas an unsuitable choice has caused her to have a nappy area full of terrible diaper rash before!
When we are choosing a diaper for Mae, the 5 important questions below are what we ask to help us decide:
1) Is it comfortable to wear?
2) Does it help to prevent leakage of pee and poo?
3) Is it easy to tell when it’s time for a diaper change?
4) Does it lower the risk of getting diaper rash?
5) Can it last through the night?
After asking ourselves these 5 important questions, we did some research and based on our past experience with using different diapers for Mae, we decided that Huggies is still our preferred diaper brand.
No matter what diaper brands we try, we always find ourselves coming back to Huggies, kind of like a comfortable safety net!
Here’s why we feel that Huggies Platinum Pants in particular gets 5 resounding “yes” answers to the 5 important questions above!
Huggies Platinum Pants are suitable for children with weights ranging from 8 kg (17 lbs) all the way to over 17 kg (37 lbs) - there are 4 different sizes (M, L, XL, and XXL) to fit little ones at different stages of growth.
10 Toys to Keep Toddler Busy at Restaurant without Taking Out the iPad
You are reading: 10 Toys to Keep Toddler Busy at Restaurant without Taking Out the iPad.
I understand the dilemma. When we bring our 21 month old daughter Maeleth Sarah Goh out to eat at a restaurant, she gets fidgety and wants to come out of her Baby Chair after she’s done with her food.
Since we give her home-cooked food before we eat the food that we order, that ends up being a situation whereby she’s done but we’ve not even started eating.
Sometimes, halfway through her meal she gets bored and rejects food.
That’s when we feel tempted to pull out the iPad and let her watch kids programmes on YouTube - they are educational and Mae learned lots of words as well as her alphabets and numbers through the engaging shows.
That’s the easy way out, but Mae likes to pull the screen really close to her and that’s bad for her eyes.
To counter this, we bring along some toys and items for her to play with so that we don’t have to resort to pulling out the iPad.
Let’s face it, when judgmental people see a toddler with eyes glued to the iPad, they tend to condemn the parents whether outrightly or silently in their hearts.
No one enjoys that feeling of being judged right?
In order for the toys to work as a good distraction for a long period of time in a restaurant, I feel that they must fulfill this set of criteria:
A) They must be fun for your toddler.
B) They must be portable and easy to bring out, taking up minimal space in the diaper bag.
C) They must be non-disruptive to other diners at the restaurant.
D) They must be safe, clean and non-toxic especially since it’s your toddler’s meal time.
E) They must be able to be engaging so that your toddler can be distracted for a long time.
F) They must be affordable (Under $25) - To ensure continued interest, they must be able to be set aside as toys that are only to be played while eating out at restaurants - they cannot be played with at home.
G) They must be educational and teach your toddler something new.
Using the criteria above, I compiled a list of toys to keep toddler busy at restaurant without taking out the iPad.
Enjoy it and I hope that some of them work well for your toddler!
Eliminate the Fear of Watching Really Scary Horror Movies: Learn the Mental Trick That I’ll Teach my Daughter
I remember those late nights as a kid when I would walk through the dark hallways to my parents’ bedroom to snuggle up with them in bed.
The air-conditioning would be on so I’d hide under the blanket to avoid the cold.
The TV would be on: sometimes it would be screening the news, sometimes a documentary, and sometimes, unfortunately, really scary horror movies.
As the terrifying scenes played on, the excessive gore, heart-stopping jump scares from ghosts and chilling screams from victims in the movie made deep impressions in my mind and heart.
On those nights where I chanced upon really scary horror movies in my parent’s room, I would kiss my parents goodnight and immediately feel a sense of foreboding: now I had to walk back through the dark hallways to get back to my own room.
Every flicker of light, every moving shadow, every weird sound in the night fueled my active imagination.
Was there a ghost behind me, in the corner of my eye waiting to kill me? I couldn’t stop the horrific imaginations.
It got worse when I was back in my bed. I would cower under the blanket as my safe haven, make sure that my toes were not sticking out from the end of it, and try not to imagine an ugly face staring at me from within the blanket.
I would try not to imagine a demon hiding under my bed waiting for me to fall asleep before crawling out to murder me.
After struggling to be at peace for a long time, I would fall asleep and most of those nights after watching really scary horror movies I would be attacked with nightmares.
