Whooop! This fab deal just landed on our desk and we thought you should know so you can plan any breaks you may have coming up in October! From 7 October to 6 November 2022, kids (aged 3 - 11) enter LEGOLAND Malaysia for free! What's the catch? They need to go dressed in their best Halloween costumes! Better choose a non-polyester one then otherwise they will melt (we have Halloween costume ideas on our site too)!⁠

Very different! I guess it’s not only in Yokohama but Japan in general. It was challenging bringing a baby out because there weren’t many baby facilities. I can count the number of restaurants with baby high chairs. When my child grew a little older, I was constantly worrying about the narrow alleys as well as the lack of pedestrian walkways and child-friendly playgrounds. Also, it is quite upsetting to see that there is a small group of people in Japan who aren’t very welcoming of babies and toddlers. So I miss the family-friendly environment and facilities we have in Singapore!⁠
On the other hand, we have four seasons here in Japan, and I find it really nice that my kid can explore nature in different seasons. We rarely get heavy snow in the metropolitan Tokyo and Yokohama areas, but last year we had a good snowfall and it was my kid’s first time coming in contact with snow. It was interesting to see him get excited while walking in snow that is a few inches deep, and yet he didn’t have the courage to touch snow with his fingers when I tried to pass him a snowball.⁠

It was tough. I gave birth at the height of the pandemic during Japan’s state of emergency. My husband wasn’t allowed into the hospital and we also couldn’t ask my parents for help either. I also tried natural birth without an epidural and it was quite an experience!..."⁠
