Day-off

The trip to the mall was such fun. It didn’t matter that it was the yaya’s day-off, either. First stop was the amusement center. Loaded the kids’ membership game cards which they squandered in less than an hour of play at the different video games. Then off to lunch, which at the kids’ request was flame grilled hamburgers, country fries, and mushroom gravy dip. A little window shopping, then next stop was the toy store. Where else?!

Wasn’t planning on buying anything. But when I saw that the Ravensburger Handmade Art collection puzzles I had been eyeing were on sale (and at 50% off at that!), I was suckered into buying. Two, actually! :)

Bought 2 designs, by Van Gogh and Cezanne. I’ve always wanted to buy those puzzles and complete it with the 2 kids, then afterwards, have them framed and hung in our bedroom. Think it would be so nice once it’s done. Can’t wait! :D

As for the kids, they found “Plug & Play TV Games” which featured 5 games with Disney characters. It was pretty cool since no game console was required, as it said in the box, just plug and play! So it was no surprise that the kids were so eager to get home after I bought it for them.

The kids’ TV viewing have been severely limited, and they’re only allowed to watch TV during the weekends. So the same rule applies for the video games.
