Dora the Explorer "Live" Show



December is always a busy month of chasing Live Shows for the children.

On Saturday morning, after a nice breakfast, we started getting ourselves ready to go for the Dora Live Show at the United Square.

As usual we took the MRT since it is just 4 stations aways from our place. We reached United Square around 11.45am and we saw that people are que-ing up. So we quickly joined in the Q. Luckily we were early and the Q got longer and longer, compared to our Q for Island Princess show last weekend.


The show started on time at 1 pm. Both Anthe and Anders were very happy to see Dora and her friends. The 1/2 hour show was very entertaining.

The only "complaint" that i have is - many parents started to shove their children to the front of the stage and resulted to the children standing and blocking our view. Anthea kept saying : "mommy, i can't see, they are blocking me." Imagine we were at the front row..sigh. In the end, i had no choice but to ask her to stand up and watch. This meant that she will be blocking the others behind but what to do... : P

After the show, we had lunch at Bakerzin with the extended families. The children had pizzas and spagetties. My In Laws returned from their enjoyable Hokkaido trip on Friday evening.

My father in law brought the children to Toy R Us after lunch and he bought each of them an early christmas present. Anthea choosed for herself a Ponyville House and Anders choosed a Thomas the Train Lego set.

Both of them went home, happy & tired. They had their usual power nap.

Dinner was at my in laws house with Uncle Leong's crabs and other Tze char dishes. It was a nice and simple meal. After dinner, we even had a rare chance of playing a game of MAHJONG..hee.

What a Treat & exciting day for the Aces family.
