"doo"

Yup, that's where we went over the weekend. In Kate's words, the "doo" (zoo).

The first time we brought her there, she was only a baby and we weren't sure if she really absorbed that much. This time round, she could walk on her own, watch the live shows and she definitely had fun & saw much - my girl is so clever & I'm so proud of her!

We saw tigers,monkeys, birds, fishes, turtles, elephants, chimpanzees, orang utans, ponies, goats.. so many! It was even more fun because we went with friends with other children and it was soo nice.

Along the way, we pointed out many animals to Kate which she could recognise, and she could answer when we asked her what they were doing. So now, she knows that the tigers were sleeping, the monkeys were eating & swinging, the fishes & turtles were swimming, the elephants were swinging their trunks and sprayed water through them too! My heart burst with pride and amazement when she could relate to me what she saw, and I'm very happy at how developed she is!

The highlight for her has got to be the children's play area. The moment she eyed the water-area, she lunged ahead (while we were carrying her) & the moment we took off her shoes, she dashed into the water with no hesitation! Immediately, I told the husband "this is defintely her zone!" It was so delightful watching her playing in the waters & having fun. It was so cute!


Happy Kate

We left after water-play as it was already late afternoon, and Kate was due for her nap. I think she also had enough after a whole half-day at the zoo. I'm definitely bringing her back to the zoo again!
