Visit To The Library…

I joined the Public Library near our place recently as a good way to expose the girls to more books, plus we can also borrow audiovisual items for them too. It’s great as we get to borrow up to 30 items, which is enough for the whole family.

I brought them to a “Story Time” session where a Librarian would read a few stories and have some activities at the end. As expected there was a huge turnout. Being first timers, the girls did not know what to expect and I let them sit on my lap (yes, one on each side) and told them to listen quietly. There was also a sing-along session whereby the children sang together with the Librarian.

At the end there was activity time whereby the children were given a drawing to colour in, some crayons and some cut-outs to stick on as part of the drawing. It was all a lot of fun. While the girls were colouring, one little baby boy came crawling near us and began grabbing Jun Lee’s paper. She complained that she didn’t have enough space as the baby was in front of her and so I told her to move over to my side. The baby then crawled over to Jun Yen and he was crying, and suddenly screamed right into Jun Yen’s ear.

Poor Jun Yen was disturbed but just rubbed her ear. She must have hated the loud scream but didn’t kick up a fuss. I was quite proud of the way they handled the situation. Good girls!
