Project World Map

Ok I'm officially declaring that my Project Menu has failed. Its not that I didn't cook much but that each time I'm finished with cooking, I hardly have time to take photos of them as the kids will be crowding around the dining table wanting to start eating asap! There'll be Ee asking "Can I start yet, Mummy??" or Min trying to pull his baby chair to the dining table and attempting to climb onto it by catching hold of the tray table. I didn't have time to take nice photos of the food but will be busy getting them ready for dinner. Finally I gave up even attempting to take photos of it, and would gladly let the kids eat them up. Nevetheless, I've made a list of food that I know how to cook by now and it'll be a good reference for me when doing my meal plans.

Project World Map is actually hubby's project. If you know us well, you'll actually know that we love to bring out kids travelling to different places every year. There is an unwritten rule that every year we will plan a family trip and bring the kids on a family holiday. So far we have been to quite a few places and Hao knows the most as he has travelled with us the most times. This gave hubby the idea of getting a world map up on the wall and putting map pins on the places that we've been to with the kids and putting up small pictures of them at those places.

Just today after dinner, we headed to Popular and got the stuff for the Project World Map. We got the big world map from a bookshop in Beijing. Tonight, we bought styrofoam boards, plastic cover sheets and hubby and Hao pinned the world map on the styrofoam boards and put plastic cover on it. It's not the best looking piece around but turned out rather well. We then told Hao which places we went to together and he found the locations and put a map pin on it. Next we'll have to get old pics out and try to paste it on the map somehow and then put it up on the wall of our living room. We asked where Hao will like to go next year and his reply is "To USA to visit GU GU!!" :P
