Some time last month (boy, we are already 1 day into Oct!), we celebrated Jiejie and Baby Nat’s birthday at The City @ Liang Court.
It wasn’t part of the initial to host a party outside home. The original plan would have gone somewhat like this:
We will bring Nat out to play on his birthday which fell on a weekend, then take a day’s off work and spend some quality time with Jiejie on her birthday which fell on a weekday. Simple and nice!
But, nope, it was a no-go as my then line manager had discouraged me from taking leave. And so, instead of doing 2 separate small celebrations, we decided to do 1 bigger event since their birthdays are just a few days apart.
The City was lotsa fun for the kids’ and their friends. With different interest area for the kids to play pretend. And just like a real city, there were super market, salon, clinic, cafe and all. Our not-so-little party was help in the Police Station! Aha. my guests are all erm, captivated (pun intended). I wonder if that was the idea behind having the function room in the Police Station. Hum.
|
Unlike the other interest areas, the interior of the Police Station has nothing police-y about it. It’s a regular function room and here’s how it looked like after we decorated it. |
|
Annie helping to decorate Baby Nat’s cake. She’s such a gem :)) |
|
Not wasting a moment, the girls quickly got busy dressing up in princess costumes. |
|
And then, came Jiejie’s friends. |
|
and Baby Nat’s friends, who are in fact, Meimei’s classmates. |
|
Our little cousin came too. And we put both Vera and Nat in the little shopping carts. |
|
Our youngest guest was little Isis. Our favourite baby in our neighbourhood. |
|
Now, let me see. Where’s my little birthday boy? |
|
Look mom! I’m a doctor! |

The Supermart kept Nat busy and happy. It was really fun seeing the kids moving about with the mini shopping carts. |

The cafe is at the central of the whole play area… |

and pizzas |
|
One can expect excellent service, huge portions at no additional or service charges. |
|
Like any city, we all need some super heros in our lives. |
|
Look! Batman is flexing his muscles. All ready to save the world. Anytime. |

|
Not to be mistaken, it wasn’t Meimei’s birthday. But the little girl sure knew how to be in the limelight. LOL. Jiejie on the other hand was a little shy but still very happy. |
