爸爸 is like the "dentist" in the family. He pulled off 姐姐's top incisor which was loose. She couldn't bear the loose tooth anymore and requested to have it pulled out before 爸爸 even came back. It was bothering her and making it painful for her to eat. 爸爸 is back with the nice fruit cocktail cake she requested to cut with 大姑's family. She requested to get rid of the loose tooth immediately but we wanted her to take some photos before that. So she had to smile for the camera first.
See her tooth which had become crooked? She's a good girl and still smile for us.
After photos 爸爸 asked her to go to toilet to pull out her tooth. 弟弟 badly wanted to watch but we didn't allow him as didn't want him to be scared. She came out happy but we're not able to put her tooth under her pillow for Tooth Fairy since we'll be at Ah Kong's house.

At night, she's happily cutting her cake with dear cousins :)

My fave photo of the day. 姐姐's tooth is gone :P
Had late lunch at Restoran Kolam Ikan Kulim just before they close. The 三味 fish and 油浸 patin fish is nice. However no photos again as the kids were too hungry. Maybe next time we will remember photos, and will try the 鱼片 and maybe the fish bone soup too (it was on the newspaper cuttings on the wall since they didn't give us any menu). The children got some rambutans from neighbour, as it's rambutan season, and all the neighbours with rambutan trees are blooming.
Putting up the name card as we didn't take any photo of the dishes at Restoran Kolam Ikan :D
When we're back home only Tooth Fairy came to give her the RM1 she always gets. The first night we're back, Tooth Fairy didn't come. She prayed hard for Tooth Fairy to visit, and she got her RM1 the following day. 弟弟 even said he saw the Tooth Fairy, she's white colour (hm.... I think he meant a white glow).
For late lunch again, we went to the same place Big Tree Restaurant Kulim. We had patin fish, and it's quite delicious. Of course the all-time favourite of salted egg mantis prawn finished in what felt like minutes :)
This time the children enjoyed feeding fishes after lunch.
The children feeding catfish. The catfish look so yucky as they are huge!
Feeding patin fish.
When the children's cousins went home, we went for chicken rice with assam soup at Chai Leng Park, Prai. 弟弟 loved it with the meat and 姐姐 say the rice is good. We went shopping after lunch, the children wanted to get a little pink dolphin for Cousin Arissca.
This is the second Friso Growing Up Together Days that the children attended. We came after ballet exam for some fun and relaxation. You see, 姐姐's hair is still gel'ed up.

Family portrait with "Virtual Painting" and the doodle badges the children made
Because we bought the milk powder, so we got coupons to do all these activities. Not only the activities the milk powder comes with animal bath towel so the children were really happy (and parents are happy with the discount). This time, the Friso team gave out coupons for Virtual Painting and Doodle Badge. During their previous GUT Days, as long as we have a passport we can get them. Now if without purchase, visitors only get to play with the interactive games.
弟弟's class finally had their JMC Primary 3 class party! For his solo performance, he plays 3 songs "Morning In The Forest", "Little Bluebird" and "March Of The Little Bears".
He chose the t-shirt himself. He said guitar suits music class party :)
Intro and he wanted teacher to accompany him to the piano
似模似样的弹琴
Looks so serious during his solo performance
Video of his performance taken by 爸爸. Luckily he is back from business trip in time to attend class party together.
After all the children performed their chosen solo pieces, they sing "Songs of The Seasons".
Making funny faces while getting ready
Then it's dance performance for "Samba King".
Finally it's gift exchange and group photo.

The children exchanged snacks after their performance. 弟弟 is very happy as he is pleased with his performance and with having gifts and snacks.
姐姐 and 弟弟 playing at playground and having a snack at KFC
Some photos during lessons. Really hope he can pay more attention to teacher and listen to teacher's instruction. Teacher Sherlene did mention this class is more playful and she still want the parents to sit in even when they go for JXC. He can play well if he feels like it, but he is always rushed and did not follow timing. He is not that good at listening nor singing. Luckily he has quite big hands and the playing comes easily to him.
Practising "Cast A Spell"
Practicing "Samba King". See he looks so playful here.
The video, practicing "Samba King". The two boys in red t-shirts were busy being playful.
Practicing "Songs Of The Seasons"
As for 姐姐, she is progressing well onto JXC Solfege & Ensemble and Repertoire Book 3. Seems like her class was more mature. The teacher had requested to only have children in the class from JXC after a couple of months.
I took a snapshot of this picture in one of the studios. Yamaha didn't update their website and only hardcopy of this structure is available in their brochure. I guess they didn't think the current students or parents are interested as the school did not give this to us. It's another 7 years for 姐姐 and 9 years for 弟弟 :P
The progress structure for Yamaha Music Education System
We manage to see Ben 10 character at Gurney Plaza even though we arrived late. It was games with Ben 10 for the kids with tickets, guess-the-number to win tickets and photo session. I think it finished in 30 minutes. The Ben 10 character in his costume was walking around Gurney Plaza (with a staff) after that to go back to the office I guess. We only got a few far away shots with the Ben 10 character as we didn't buy the merchandise to get tickets for meet and greet. This is the first time we have been to a character meet and greet session which must purchase merchandise.
The best shots we got since we didn't purchase the merchandise for photo session.
After that happy munching at Sakae Sushi (again!!!!! why they like it so much). It's the first Sunday of the month, children's day promotion. We found out we have to ask for the Sakae cap. Too bad we forgot to bring the discount voucher that 弟弟 got, so we will be back (again!!!).
This year for 弟弟's kindy school trip, they went to Sakae Sushi Auto-City for Children Charaben Workshop. 弟弟 was so excited about it :)
He wanted to bring a food container along, in case he couldn't finish his meal and he wanted to share with 姐姐. He was back early and there was only a few kids left when I pick him up around 2:30pm. Looks like this year they gave a much later estimate when they'd be back.
The charaben 弟弟 made, and there's leftover from his kid's meal to share with 姐姐
He got a goodie bag with a small pack of Kewpie mayonnaise and discount voucher. So funny, I don't know why they give Kewpie mayonnaise. Not sure why he said it's a boring trip, yet he was the one asking to go. He didn't look like not enjoying it, his photos from school folder are with his big smile.
