A little TWEE from CLEEBO

How do you clean your nose? I guess there is only a simple answer to it, but its only where and when you do it… But how do you clean your baby and/or toddler’s nose?

 

I believe that is the same challenge parents today faces when it comes to cleaning their children’s nose… We have 2 children, Megan of age 3 and Melody of age 1… For Megan, its more of ‘self service’ as we can see, her gross motor skills are very well developed… And I really do meant gross when she stick her finger into her mouth after she did the ‘you know what’… Occasionally, there are those very sticky and stubborn ones that refused to be ‘purged’ by herself, we’ll assist Megan to ‘excavate’ the infamous ‘black gold’…

How we did it? For me, I’ll go for my very last finger with nails to ‘excavate’ but my wife would prefer the cotton bud method that I never seem to master the technique… Imagine, using a chopstick to pick up a dumpling!

 

What of Melody then? Cotton bud is the only solution as our fingers are too big for her little nostrils…

If only we can use a pair of tweezers… No, not this pair of tweezers, of course!!

But this great creation by real parents themselves, THE CLEEBO!

I was approached by Sophie & Friends to review Cleebo and I never expect this tiny device to come in such attractive colours, great function, little price tag…

IMG_1203

At first look, it looks like ordinary tweezers only that its made of plastic and not metal…

Once opened up, the Cleebo tweezers is in fact very soft to the touch, and command a firmer grip than traditional tweezers! And most importantly, it can be sterilized!

Happy Fathers Day!

Once, Megan asked me 'Daddy, why u so fierce?'

I replied 'I where got fierce lah?'

Megan 'Just now u scold Melody.'

Me 'No lah, daddy didn't scold Melody... She slept for 10 minutes and woke up, I only said 'like that call sleeping ah?'... I didn't scold her mah.'

Megan 'But Melody cannot talk mah.'

Me 'Then?'

Megan 'Then she cannot tell u she not tired mah!'

Hmmm... A very simple answer indeed... Being a father for the past 3 years made me realized, besides teaching our kids, there's also much to learn from our kids...

Happy Fathers Day to all daddies!

买东西吃东西.v

our 5th and last day in hongkong… and we’re going shopping again… as what others would say, last minute shopping… also to spend off the remaining cash, which is not very much to spend thou… :P

 

DISNEYLAND to CITYGATE

06-Disneyland to CityGate Outlets

i really need to take my cap off for my BIL… i wonder where he got all those information about where to go… anyway, our last minute shopping venue is at Tung Chung, where there is this mall called the City Gate, and thats where we can find lotsa branded store outlets…

but first, the infamous disney train!

IMG_0309

i think daryl is kinda disappointed the next train isn’t disney… haha

IMG_0313

nevertheless, so great view on the train ride…

IMG_0316

oh ya, one more thing about the train system, the gap between the train and the platform is really wide…
