Confidence-building Sessions

Been going round from malls to malls to meet the cartoon characters. Seeing my Cutie gaining confidence with each outing session, it's really worth the effort to squeeze in with the crowds.



1st phototaking session - wailing loudly on stage.

2nd phototaking session, clinging tight onto mummy.

Almost froze to the ground at the Dora and Boots performance (cos' she has only "met" them on television before). No phototaking session, but still nice to be able to hug Dora the doll.

That handshake with Spongebob Square Pants must have left a deep impression on her. Now, she will say "punchbox" (Spongebob) instead of Patrick whenever she saw them.








At last, at ease with the characters.

Finally, willing to go solo with the characters.

[Hee... happened to bump into this Santa Claus at Punggol Plaza foodcourt.]

After meeting the various characters, my Cutie was thus able to form associations with what she saw on television. She will say "Amanda, hug, hug" (referring to her photo-taking sessions and hugging the characters). Now, she is better at distinguishing them, eg. she will say "Care Bear" and not "bear". Now, she will glue to television to watch the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Cartoon (previously, she only looked out for Donald Duck and Daisy cos' have these 2 soft toys at home). Been hearing her saying "hotdog" (Mickey Mouse Clubhouse "Hotdog" tune) or "Meeska Mooska Mickey Mouse". So cute.

We had gone to PP again and this time round, my Cutie was more confindent in venturing around the Interactive Media Floor on her own. We also went to the Tanglin Mall for another round of snow experience (tho' PP also has the "snow" session, it's not as fun as that in Tanglin Mall). This time round, my Cutie was fully prepared with her raincoat and cap (so that her whole body won't be so soapy after that). My Cutie simply loves the "snow".

Fun sessions at Tumble Tots.
