Acrobatic Performer

Because Ace has a dance class in orchard area.. usually after his dance class, we will go somewhere nearby for a meal.

The other day, we brought him to Suntec after lessons and he was so excited when he reached there because there was some sort of fair going on and they actually had a kid's area where they had lots of toys for kids to play with....

They even gave out balloons and the very boh liao Max took the balloon and tried to perform an acrobatic style. He even made me take these pictures to prove that he was 'performing' in Suntec..

Anyway, it was interesting that I had a chance to watch him play. I notice that Ace is not all that good at sharing.. maybe it is because he is the only child. When he is at a place, and there are people playing a toy he wants to play, he would not really try to snatch it or anything like that.

But leh, once he starts playing.. he would be very protective over his toys and not want to share.

His teacher told us that sometimes, when he is playing in school and has to go away, he will ask his friends to "protect" his toys for him...

Once, he peed in his pants and when his teacher ask him why didn't he go to the toilet, his reason was, "But if I go to toilet, someone will take my toys and play with it..."

While we are on the topic of toilets, I have acquired the art of telling if Ace wants to pee or shit just by looking at his body language...

But leh, my son doesn't know that.

Eg, yesterday, we went to his nainai's house and when we were outside the door, he started crossing his legs and walking around.. "Ace, you want to go toilet is it?" "Nope, mummy, I am just walking around..."

And then after like 10 seconds, he got a little more urgent and then he confessed that he 'niao ji" and has to go toilet...

What is so difficult about going to toilet to relieve yourself until you have to lie that you are just walking around.... I also cannot understand his rationale...
