Sticky Bean's very first Swim @ 6 months old

Sticky Bean had her very first swimming “lesson” at Auntie Yz’s place. She took to the waters so natural it was as though she thought she’s on land, on her tummy, kicking and moving her legs gradually.

Getting ready to get into the waters with her bumble bee swimming costume!

look at her cheeky face

so cute the swimming costume came with wings at the back and a little tail

Can tell from her expression how much she hated this float.

So did she like to swim?

Seriously I don’t know but at least she’s not screaming nor crying the moment she touches the water. Perhaps I was holding on to her so she felt safe?

Her movements seemed to suggest that the environment was au naturale to her.

One thing for sure, she hates this float though, not sure if it’s because it’s causing her discomfort or was it because she feels insecure that mummy is not holding on to her.

Anyway we (the adults) definitely seemed to be much more excited than her. Haha

still thinking about what's going on? does it feel different in the water?

that's how comfy she feels after the float was removed

floats naturally...

feeling so comfy she started chomping on her "drumstick""

and she continues chomping...

Kid-Friendly Accommodation with slides in Tainan and Kaohsiung

Taiwan is such a kid's friendly place and one of the top travel destinations Singaporeans. Easy communication, a fantastic array of food with its bustling night markets, lots of kid-friendly attractions and the only country I know of with an amazing number of kids friendly accommodation ! By this definition, I'm referring to accommodations with slides, ball pit and lots of play feature for kids. Totally the very reasons why we love Taiwan so much, we visited Taiwan in May 2017, did an Okinawa-Taiwan trip in March 2018 and this time around, we intended to fly directly to Kaohsiung in November 2018. Our previous trips to Taiwan has been saturated at just the North Taiwan and near the outskirts of Taipei, as we already have intentions to fly directly to Kaohsiung, South Taiwan should we want to visit the southern part of Taiwan. And so that got me started with another Kid-friendly accommodation with slides in both Kaohsiung and Tainan. I was astounded by ...

Taiwan Kids friendly Accommodation with slides - not your usual list!

And so from a mere idea of bringing Sticky Bean with us to Taiwan, this idea was put into action with Singapore Airlines 70th Anniversary promotion where you get to pay only $70 for a child's ticket! Though it's not exactly the cheapest option for flying to Taiwan, we thought to pay a little more for better service and not to mention safety since it will be Sticky Bean's first time traveling on a relatively longer flight. Her first plane ride was a really short one to KL, a mere 1 hour away. If she's manageable on the flight, we can then consider budget airlines such as Scoot or even Jetstar for our subsequent travels. So why Taiwan? There are plenty of reasons for our choice other than both Mr. Keir and myself love Taiwan for the food and hospitality. I'm sure you may have come across Awesome kids friendly accommodation with slides and other themed rooms in Taiwan that are trending in facebook. That was one of the many reasons why we want to go Taiwan too! ...

Travel period : 13 March to 20 March 2018 Fligh t: Singapore Airlines to Taiwan, Peach Airlines to Okinawa Hotel: Okinawa Grand Mer Resort (Okinawa), Marine Piazza Hotel (Okinawa), Yomi Hotel (Taiwan) Here's a preview of our 8 Day 7 Night Okinawa ( Self-drive) - Taiwan Trip with kids itinerary . I'll be creating an individual post for each day and include the link soon so that you can read up in detail. Some time ago, we've booked our air tickets to Taiwan during Singapore Airlines Promotion. Yes, we love Taiwan that much. But this time around, a friend from Taiwan suggested that we can pop by Okinawa too since it's a mere 1 hour plus flight away from Taiwan and the air tickets are pretty reasonable too. So we took Singapore Airlines to Taiwan - Taoyuan airport and took Peach Airlines, a Japanese low-cost carrier (budget) airline to Okinawa. With all the checked-in baggage, we paid about SGD$200+ per pax for Peach Airlines. ...
