Finally, its not raining! Just want to get out of the house to get some fresh air after 4 days of cold and rainy weather. Got the kids to bathe, get dress….when kids know that they are going shopping, they just become sooooo obedient and do exactly what you say in fast speed….*wink*

So in less than an hour, we got out of the house. Yeah! Waited for about half an hour for the free shuttle service to IMM from the bus interchange and in less than 10mins, we are there.

IMM was so full of Christmas decorations. So we took the chance and take photos…white-tree.JPG

Didn’t look too excited. So I gave each of them a Santa Hat to get them in higher spirit.santa-hat1.JPG

That’s Better!

Then we shop….

then they saw the kiddy ride…$2 for 10mins…because they were younger than 7 years old. The assistant said I had to be on it too, so what a bargain! All 3 of us in the kiddy ride together for $2! So 3 of us drove around the 100+sq foot of empty space on the furry elephant.

Its great fun to shop with the kids when you know how to handle them. Children normally become extra active when they are outdoors, parents must understand that its the way children express their excitement.

Its so often that you hear parents shouting, “stay still”, “don’t run”, “keep quiet” when they are shopping with their kids. Kids are not robots, they have feelings, let them have the freedom to express it.

Do you enjoy shopping with your kids?
