Making Rainbow

We started by talking about the bible story, where God made rainbow after the rain, 

in Noah's ark story. 

We also listened to the rainbow song, in Chinese. 

Then we continued by making rainbow. 

Andrew loves coloring.

Peacock

God is marvelous in creating beautiful creature for us to enjoy. 

We saw how a peacock open its feathers into a beautiful colorful fan. 🦚

Today, we had fun painting, drawing and decorating peacock. 

We started with the base drawing. Mama drew the outline with a pencil, then we colored in with water painting. 

We bought the diamond decoration when we were in Asda. 

Mama thought of making this beautiful peacock, as we read the story book, Calm Down Zebra. 

Andrew loves art and we had fun creating this beautiful peacock together. 

Andrew painted the base color. Mama added the feathery by crayon, and Andrew stick the blue diamond decoration on the peacock's feather.

Jesus Loves me and you

Our activity today. 

1 Kor 13: 4-7

Kasih itu sabar, kasih itu murah hati, ia tidak cemburu, ia tidak memegahkan diri dan tidak sombong. 

Ia tidak melakukan nyang tidak sopan dan tidak mencari keuntungan sendiri. 

Ia tidak pemarah dan tidak menyimpan kesalahan orang lain. 

Ia tidak bersuka cita karena ketidakadilan, tetapi karena kebenaran. 

Ia menutupi segala sesuatu, percaya segala sesuatu, mengharapkan segala sesuatu, sabar menanggung segala sesuatu. 

Bees

Bees and the beehive. 

Here is the beehive. 

Where are the bees?

Hidden away where nobody sees. 

Watch and you'll see them come out of the hive. 

One, two, three, four, five. 

Buzzz...all fly away! 

We borrowed this book from the library about the nursery ryhmes. 

Mama drew the bees, and Andrew colored them. 

At 4 years old, Andrew has a neat coloring already. 

For the beehives, we used the tray from our nectarine boxes.

Crocodile

Making Croccodile 🐊

Using toilet paper roll. 

We wanted to learn the nursery rhyme Row row row your Boat. ⛵

Mama was inspired to make the crocodile using toilet paper roll. 

So what we did was:

1. Paint the toilet paper roll green. 

(We went to Poundland and I found blue and green water paint and some goggly eyes. ) Yay! 

Thank you Kuku Aunie @tink0710 for the paint brush. 😘💕

2. Mama drew some shapes for the body, tail and mouth. 

3. Andrew painted it green. 

4. We decorated it with some marker. (I found some permanent color marker at Poundland).

5. We cut it 

6. Stick the goggly eyes. 

7. Stick the body parts to the painted toilet paper. 

8. Tadaaaa! We have a crocodile. 

Wanna make yours?

Merry Christmas 2015 and Happy New Year 2016.

Drawing at Ibis Bencoolen, Singapore

Our room at Ibis was facing the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA).
Perhaps I should have taken Art as my University degree. Hahahahaha...

Well, that afternoon, I was enjoying a cup of coffee, facing NAFA and started drawing.

Drawing

We have a new hobby of drawing. 

And it starts to influence Benny too.  Hahahaha...

Ever since I went to Cat Socrates with Sisilia, I have been intrigued by drawing. 

During the last trip to Singapore, I went back to the book store to find more drawing books, 

but to no avail.

Yesterday, we went to Borders. 

I didn't expect that we would be there for long. 

Just that the thought of Borders reminded me of my days in Melbourne. 

Hahaha.

So we went in. 

But, guess what? 

We were there for hours. Hehehehe..

And we found so many awesome drawing books. 

Yay! Hurray! 

Here are our drawings that we learned from the book. :)

Flower: Iris tectorum

Magnolia danudata Flower

This bird is drawn by Benny. :)
