GOLDEN TICKET

For some mths in sch Ian has been eyeing on the golden ticket given by his sch lib but he has never won any. It entitled the kid to some movie screening after sch hours. Tdy we visited the Discovery Ctr, coz it is sch hols and coinciding with Christmas there were a few programs for kids. Our highlight was to watch Sing the movie and didn't expect more fun at the place. We haven't been here for some time and it does reminisces of the past yrs when we went that place when Ian was so little and Joann was barely walking ard. Tdy both kids were roaming ard the different stations knowing what they like eg the game stations when we acted as participants.

Today's theme was of occupations of the past and they could be architect. news reporter, soccer player, doctor or soldier and going ard the booths they could get stamps and get a prize. We went thru all the stations and was kindof fun for them. We watched the movie 'Sing' and it was inspirational as the animals who acted as characters could sing really well and quite awed by their songs. But ending was nice when they all overcame their fears or even problems to get into the singing act together.

Then we roamed the exhibits and we did read that there was an event Let it Snow at 1;30pm and we were early for it, Ian spotted the top prize was golden ticket of $50 capital mall vouchers and he was really aiming for it. SO much so that insisted mummy to participate as well. He went into the chamber thingy with Joann and were given seconds to be in there to catch as much tickets and to choose the 1 ticket they would love to win. And this boy had strategise to step on the golden ticket and then pick it up when all other tickets were floating ard. He wasn't sure if he could get hold of it but true enough he picked up the top prize. The organisers took pic of us and posted on their FB page and managed to capture a shot to blog about it. And here's the delighted boy with his golden ticket to end the year =)
