"The function of the child is to live his own life - not the life that his anxious parents think he should live, not a life according to the purpose of the educator who thinks he knows best."

GUA TEMPURUNG, PERAK

29 September 2013, Sunday
We were on our way to Ipoh and my husband decided to stop by at Gua Tempurung, to introduce the place to our host daughter.  We didn't have enough time to explore the cave.




We snapped some photos at the "miniature" cave at the entrance and the children played at the playground for a short while.
We also took a picture of ticket prices and tour details for future reference.

LEANING TOWER of TELUK INTAN, PERAK

22 September 2013, Sunday
Together with our host daughter from Austria, we went to the leaning tower in Malaysia, the Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan (Menara Condong Teluk Intan).  The tower is located in the center of a square surrounded by Jalan Pasar, Jalan Selat, Jalan Bandar and Jalan Ah Cheong.

My children had not been in the tower itself.  They were so excited to be able to walk into the clock tower.  The opening hours of the tower is from 8am to 5pm from Mondays to Fridays and 9am to 6pm during weekends and public holidays.

Here is a video of my little one's reaction when she heard the clock struck 5 in the evening.

TOOTH FAIRY

30 July 2013, Tuesday

We went to the dentist today as there are 2 teeth growing behind Min's two bottom front teeth.  As the baby teeth were already shaky, the dentist pulled them both out.

Brave girl!

Is the tooth fairy going to pay her double tonight?

MATHEMATICS

18 July 2013, Thursday

2 months ago,
     LZ: Mummy, my year is what?
     Me: You are 9-year-old, and this year is 2013.
     LZ: Yeeee... want me to do maths only!

Today, a similar question was raised. 
     LZ: Mummy, what year were you born?
     Me: This year is 2013 and I'm 41.
     LZ: Again, want me to do maths... this mummy ah!

She then went into her room and came out after a short while and asked,
"Mummy, that means all my friends in my class are 2004, right?".
"That means all your friends in your class is?".

I kept quiet and ignored her question.  (I'm not answering that!)
She moved on to the whiteboard and did the subtraction.
