Ketupat Making & Raya Card Making Event

For the last 3 weeks, we were having a concourse event in conjunction of the upcoming Raya celebration.

It was amazing to teach so many young kids the value of tradition & what Raya is all about.

Here is some of the crafts that we taught:

The traditional Ketupat is a little tough for some kids, but when they finally did it...it is priceless!

Hari Raya Cards of various designs:

And what Raya is without the Ketupat...

This Craft Making session was an initiative from Subway Putra Mall KL to promote the Ramadan. We were privilege to be part of their initiative!

Birthday Parties for the Kids

Last December, we had a small birthday celebration for both Christopher & Annabelle...

Since it was just a small lunch with the grandparents, I only order a cake for each of them...

Christopher was into Lego Star Wars...so he requested a Lego Star Wars theme. Made him this cake with lots of Star Wars mini figures...

As for Annabelle, she is into Sofia the First so I ordered a Sofia cake for her, with Sofia & Clover mini figure...

The birthday boy & birthday girl busy munching on the cake!

Teacher's Day Gifts from the boys

For this year's Teacher's Day, the kids did magnets & coaster for their teachers.

We have been teaching the kids to be appreciative towards their teachers & teaching assistants since day 1, so this year is no exception...

For Christopher, he made heart shape magnets for all the female teachers & coasters for all the male teachers.

Well, he most of them himself including writing the card...

Can see that his writing is not up to expectation but hey...I gotta give him credit for putting the effort to do it himself!

This special set is for his home room teacher, hence have a magnet & a coaster...

These coasters are for his male teachers...very colorful...

These are for the female teachers...

For the past years, I always help Constantine to make all his gifts...so this year, I asked him to make it himself since the younger brother is making his on his own!

Not too bad...the design is more structured...

These coasters are for male teachers...

And these are for female teachers...

From this, we can see that both brother are really different in terms of creativity.

Older brother is more structured in his work, maybe it is because he is older. 

Younger brother is all about randomness! He likes colorful things & he actually took time to make it a random pattern! 😂😂😂
