Hahaha!!! This is so fun!! What a way to start my weekend!!! For once, I became like a small boy again!!( k, I know, for some of you, I still a small boy, hahaha )

Yeah!! this morning, I joined a group of nice people to conduct a mini family science fun workshop for about 100 children plus their mummy and daddy, ha and the science experiement was about making ICE-CREAM!!

Ha ha, it was so fun, and it was really really easy to make your own Ice-cream ha! All we need are just milk, sugar, some vanilla essence and then you shake it with some ice cube and salt, and after a while, VIOLA!! you get yourself some VANILLA ICE-CREAM!!! and of cos you get to eat it too!!! CoOL STuff!!

hahah, OK, I know, the ice-cream will not be the same standard as the Haagen Dazs or the Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, but still, it is your own self-made ice-cream!!! What’s more fun was that it is an activity that you can do with your friends and loved one.

You know, as I mentioned, this was a family fun day for the children and parents, I personally find that it is a great way to spend some great bonding time between the parents and their kids!! You get to learn new things together, get to play and yet get to create an item called ice-cream that is love by all ages, what a way to spend a saturday morning!

Well, you know, nowadays, it is so easy for a mum or dad to just buy things or to bring their kid out for a meal and then that will be their so-called bonding time. If I’m the kid, I will be happy too as most of the time, they will bring them to the kid’s favorite restaurants. However, if I can have a choice, I strongly believe I will rather have an activity where I can have fun with my parents, laugh and play with them, rather than just go to a restaurant to eat. Like for this case, we can come and have some fun, make some ice-cream together and then share it with each other. Wow, can you imaging that image now??

Oh well, you might think that, “Aiya, we are too old for this kind of things liaos…” or ” where got time for such thing” if that what’s you are really thinking, I will say “Is that really true??” and then I will ask you to pause and really, think back, when is the last time you have done an activity that will bring laughter and joy to both your parents and you or an episode where you have laugh till you cried and have your parents behaving like a kid again? When was the last time you really have a bonding session with them?? or all this while it has just been dinner after dinner and dinner after dinner?? Is that what you call a bonding time?

For those who are married with kids, are you doing the same thing, too?

Well, there are no right and wrong about it, is just that for me, in this morning activity had taught me that, the family fun science day conducted today is really not just about making ice-cream only, there’s more things we can get out from it than just making vanilla ice-cream, don’t you think so too??
