How Do You Bond with Your Baby on a Saturday?

Sage's idea of hide and seek is to cover himself with a blanket whereby I would pretend that I would be looking for him. The room gets so messy because apart from the blanket, he would tell me to cover him with all the pillows available.

He learned new skills at the Childminding when it comes to playing and many other things such as identifying a particular "dinosaur" which he called Tricetops and his famous "amblilance (ambulance) transport.

Likewise on a Saturday since his daddy is at work we decided to walk from our place to a nearby beach and along the way he enjoyed looking at the Bus passing by. He would eventually shout and say, "mommy Bus Tata! look"

As soon as we reached our destination, he couldn't contain his enjoyment swimming and chasing the crabs as well. We built a sandcastle and he's giggling whenever a wave would destroy it. At first, he's a bit annoyed but then, later on, got the idea that building a sandcastle when it's high tide would eventually wipe it away.

So we changed strategy by burying ourselves with the sand and the waves added more impact on it. We spent almost five hours and decided to go home before the lunch break. The beauty of bringing your baby for a beach day is that as soon as you reach home, he dozed off easily.

It's always a good way to bond with Sage on a weekend basis outside because he's more exposed to what's happening around his environment just like our recent travel in the Middle East whereby he had so much fun at Yas Beach where we stayed for 11 nights. Letting him experience the beach outside Seychelles gave him a more realistic sense of nature.

Outside is certainly a favorite for my two children. We get out as much as possible! Lots of adventures to be had.

they can explore more whenever they are out and see how vast their playground outside. Great day ahead to the whole family.
