Disney Hoopla Workshop
Places Kids Love June 24th, 2009After yesterday’s Transformer show, we went straight to Parkway Parade for the Disney Hoopla Workshop, where all their favourite Playhouse Disney Channel characters were gathered. Yesterday was practically a ‘Janice’s lobang’ day. *laugh* Thank you once again.
Its located at the basement of Parkway Parade. A total of 6 sections. Upon entering each section, every kid will be given a stamp collection card. Stamps were NOT given in the 1st and last sections. They need to complete all the tasks in the 4 other sections before they will get their prize.
1st Section was colouring….
2nd Section was Handy Manny section, where the real fun began….
1st they were asked to name ALL the tools, they breezed through it without a blink. Then they were tested on which tool should be used for which job; again, no sweat at all.
3rd Section was Little Einsteins…..
It began with matching the musical notes. That was too simple for Keatkeat but too tough for Binbin to handle.
Next, they were told to pick a musical instrument. The lady beat a rhythm with her hands and wanted the boys to follow. 3 different rhythms were given. Difficulty increased as she went.
The 3rd level was way too complicated, both boys failed! They completed it by receiving lots of hints from the nice lady, who eventually still give their cards a stamp. *wink*
4th Section was Pooh and Friends….
This was super easy. Ride the tricycle by following the orange path and raise the flag at the end.
5th and final Workshop section was Mickey Mouse Clubhouse…
Fixing 4 pieces of the big puzzle was the first assignment. Next, they were required to dig deep into the pool of balls to find the right shapes to paste on the wall.
Again this was completed in seconds!
And so they had the card completed with stamps.
As you can see (above picture), this did not come without spending. But buying their milk powder at Giant helped us hit that minimum easily. *wink*
What was their prize after all the ‘hard work’, a disappointing EMPTY eco-friendly bag with Handy Manny and Tools’ picture on it.
The kids ‘filled‘ up the space with their unfinished colouring paper. Though the ‘bag’ was disappointing to the adults, who were expecting at least a pencil or ruler to come along with the bag, the KIDS held them around their neck proudly all the way home!
*huge grin*
Final section was TV….
At the end of it all, kids had big nice comfy cushions to sit on while watching their favourite Playhouse Disney Cartoons. No time constraint, they were allowed to sit there for as long as they want. *wink*

Wow…that is a looonnnnggggg process…..but I guess it was the process that was fun for them. And sine we adults didn’t go through the process, we could only enjoy the end result…which (sigh)…hahahaha
But glad the boys had fun and did so well!

The kids r PHDC experts. :) I’m sure they dun mind the prize coz it’s like a bonus, on top of all the fun activities that they’ve gone thru. How come the plc doesn’t look crowded?

wow..so fun! I thot its one station per week, didn’t know they have all the station up. So how much did you spent to play all 4 stations?

Blessed mom,
its $30 per child.
Make sure you SEPARATE the receipts by the value of $30.
‘cos 1 receipt = 1 bag.
so if you have a single receipt of $60, you CAN ADMIT 2 CHILDREN but you’ll only get 1 bag.
(how silly ya???)

slavemom,
*giggle*
that was ON PURPOSE!!!
We purposely went down on weekdays, at the most uncrowded time about 4-5pm.
so that there is space for everyone, including their parents (us)!!!
*wink*

Janice,
Oh yes I did!
I usually buy grocery from Seng Siong, but because of them, I bought their milk powders at Giant…
paid much more than usual, but then again….its just once in a lifetime? once in a while?
so long as they could get in and have fun.
Its all worth it.
