# 52- Tips when going out with children

Hello All.

I tend to blog in English Malay or rojak-rojak bahasa. Depends on my mood when typing those entries.

Please do not get irritated okay. practice make perfect right? Why don’t we start it from now, writing and speaking in English. Nothing went wrong. Perhaps the grammar will go messy, of course..heheheh

I stumble up across the net. I did read some blog actually. Some of the blog I must go and read at least once a week. Some of the blog catch my heart with their catchy information and thought. Which I can share my thought when commenting on their post.

By the way, I suppose to write about my Annual Dinner at Penang but my officemate not manage to upload all the picture yet. So we on hold the story later okay.

I saw this video uploaded by friend thru Facebook. It catch my heart actually. I believe every parent trying very hard to protect their children.

Its just maybe we need to be more and more pay attention towards our child when we go outside specially at playground or shopping complex.

Previously when i still not yet married, I always heard announcement at the shopping complex for missing child.

On that time I just don’t get it why some parent did not care about it?

Yes. We do believe some parent are too busy buying thing and do comparison between the price.

Despite, I believe also some kiddo are hard to monitor and like to play around.

When I get married, we will leave our kid to babysitter in some circumstances . We enjoy her (my 1^st kid)  to be round with us.

What I usually do is :-

• We do shopping list and stick with it. If that day got promotion on certain item that we usually buy, go shop for it. We don’t compare as we need to save time and the same time to monitor the kid.
• If really need to do comparison, me will handle the kid and my husband will do the comparison and he will make the decision.
• We don’t bring kiddo when we need to buy cloth for them or for us. The reason we don’t bring them is when buying tops or pants, we need to try and its not easy to keep kid stay put in one place.
• Put the kids in the stroller or trolley. We don’t use baby carrier as my 1^st kid didn’t enjoy it.
• If u have two kids like me and need to go shopping without the husband, the big one put inside the stroller and the little one put in baby carrier. Much more easier and I already did it before.
• If u need to catch up with a friend for chit chat. Make sure u pick a place that have playground. The best choice will be Mc Donald and KFC. Pick a place which is your eyes can watch them all the time.

So parent out there and me myself reminder, please watch your kid when you are outside or even inside house. Lets people call u paranoid or overprotected. Its your kids and your amanah from Allah.

Let raise them with all heart and do whatever its take to protect them from unexpected incident.
