visited chinatown today with the kindergarten kids
it was a whole school excursion kind of event
cos the class i am with had an adult[(grand)parent/maid] follow each child
i was deployed to help with a nursery class instead
so it was 7 kids to the 2 teachers and i:)
pretty good ratio i must say


it was an eye-opener for me like all of them
[think i have visited the place less than 3 times in the 18 years]
walking along the streets , stopping at shops to look
teachers pointing out the delights of cny
getting 'free samples' from the friendly vendors
i felt like a little kid again:)


despite all its "tackiness" and tiresome traditions sometimes
i admit that i do enjoy chinese new year
not just because of the angpows
but the yummilicious food and the nice stuff that comes along:)
and..im looking forward to it again:)


and..its another trip to chinatown tmr
for the afternoon session kids
