Motherhood Baby Warehouse Sale @Viva Mall

It's my first time to go Viva Mall at Jalan Loke Yew, Cheras. My dear use the waze to go to this shopping mall before that I check on the Internet for the image how outside the shopping mall looks like, thanks to my dear that he send us there right after get Sean from tuition. You can check out the video which I have taken many pictures of the warehouse to upload it. But it's not all the items I snap at the warehouse sales, they have toys for sale too.

Many choices of baby products to choose from. Tomorrow is the last day of Motherhood Baby Warehouse sales. Just sharing the tips of shopping with you, better to bring along your family member who don't mind to queue for paying at cashier. I was thinking the longer I see the longer the queue would be.

Yesterday the first day of baby warehouse sale and it was quite a long queue to pay for the items. Some folks have decided to come back other time because the queue was too long. I thought the queue going inside was long, til I was inside the warehouse saw the queue for paying. I didn't want to go back again as I didn't stay nearby. So the day I have queue 1.5 hours to pay for the items I bought.

I didn't register for the free goodie bag as I saw long queue at the entrance sign up to get one.  There's good deal on the storage boxes which I didn't grab as I am using normal paper boxes at home. Backpacks are available there and I spotted one that is nice which can be use for hanging at the stroller. It has the extra straps at the backpack for hanging, which normal backpack we have didn't have the straps like that.

The breastfeeding bra are affordable, many maternity woman are shopping for this before deliver their baby. Baby skincare products are available and also detergent for baby clothes. Just take your time to shop if you have lot of time. I was there for more than 3 hours as after shopping we went to have lunch and my dear shop some clothes for the boys.

Great place to shop for baby gifts too, baby diapers just few brands available. I saw some skincare products of Singapore selling there too.

Happy 61st Independence Day Malaysia!

Pretending and dramatic play drives child development

 Being mom of two boys, now they have turned 12 years old and 7 years old. Time fly and I see that pretending and dramatic play improve child development. They have many roles to play in life as a child. Learning to make jewelry, it's not easy task but they tried by putting each bead and matching the color of beads turn it into beautiful bracelet.

Sean learning to be youtuber

 Importance of role play for kids is that kids learn to solve problems, coordinate, cooperate and think flexibly.

 Education are important but it's good to balance them out by giving them chance to express themselves. For example above Sean being a kid tour guide. He got to learn about the animal names and habitat sharing it with the tourists.

 Talking about tour guide, there was time where he and his brother pretend to be tour guide agent at the KidZania pretending they are making a field trip information.

 Pretending and dramatic play drives child development, the other day we went to a shopping mall. There's information on how to perform CPR and here goes my little one, hands on to learn on rescue and CPR process. It's not an easy tasks but at least he knows of how real real life issues, cultivate social and emotional intelligence. Kids learn about themselves and the world.

Role playing activities encourage children to learn about themselves and the world around them. It builds confidence, creativity, communication, physical development and problem-solving skills. Take example of above my little one, trying to cut up the banana into pieces it helps with improving his motor skills.

pretending that he's going to rescue someone at the top.

My personal ideas and tips on role-playing activities can be anywhere anytime even at home. Well, there's KidZania Kuala Lumpur which is an interactive learning edutainment theme park for kids that helps to prepare them for the real world by immersing them in simulated adult occupations and real-life situations andits role-play activities are aimed to helping kids to learn life today " - all of which support a child's social emotional resilience.
