Easter Playgroup 2009 04.04.09
SPECIAL THEMED PLAYGROUP – EASTER 2009
Another beautiful sunny day in KL for yet another fun Special Themed Playgroup! This playgroup was so overbooked, many had to be turned away. In total, 35 children and their parents attended.
Fun in the ibu house meant a morning chock-a-block with activities. Art and Craft was egg mobile decorating and Easter themed colouring. For some regulars, the sandpit sufficed!
The highlight of the day was of course the egg hunt which even saw some littlies trying to beat the whistle to get a head start! Many were even spotted ‘casing the joint’ prior to the start! As Malaysia is way, way too hot to do the traditional hiding candy in the eggs trick, we had to resort to giving out Easter chocolates and candy in the shade, in exchange for the eggs all our little hunters brought back to us. There were special prizes too, for the finders of the extra large eggs!
Everyone calmed down and relaxed to Easter stories by the enthralling Anne Ooi, our resident storyteller. It was a great way to end a busy morning.
Everyone went away happy with loads of candy good to last them at least a week!
Many thanks go out to the following persons who helped:
Nikki D’Cruz & Tammie Morris ( for helping with the setup and more )
Paige Head (for the gorgeous artwork and the cupcakes )
Naz Hamid-Hnatko ( for ensuring the cupcakes were not destroyed )
Anne Ooi ( for another great story )
Jo & Greg
Amelie Langdon ( for taking the photos )
And everyone who loaned baskets!!
( and many apologies if I have left anyone out ! )
