Swing Like a Monkey

How great is the influence of peers? Here is an example.

*

Since long ago, we have encouraged Vincent to swing himself from one end to the other end. But, he has been too coward to move up if his dad was not there to support him. It was until he saw all his good buddies there can swing like a monkey, there he started to follow. At first, he tried a few swings. After several days, he himself a monkey like the rest too.

Getting started...

There he goes, like eating a piece of cake...

Boy, suddenly I realized this is the thing he can do, but I can't.

One day, he called me out from the kitchen there, and show me proudly that he not just can move horizontally, but vertically too.

A Spiderboy

29-October-2006

Halloween is around the corner.

*

As usual, the school would want to hold a party for the kids to participate in the celebration. Parents can dress up or make up the kid to whatever / whoever they desire.

*

Most of the busy (or lazy) parents would grab whatever tools / costume that can be found easily in the market. Well, we are no exception. Initially, I wanted to turn them into devils / vampires that would cost the minimum amount of $$ , however the boys wanted to be nobody but spiderman.

*

So, spiderman they were. Luckily, the costume is not too expensive. Else, broke lah.

Testing 1,2,3...

No matter how many times they have tried, but still, they couldn't get their eyes seeing through the 2 holes there.

Finally, 2 Spiderboys on the sofa. The right one is Vincent (No.1), the left one is William (No.2)

Siperboy No.1 wanted to show off his new identity in the playground. And he got to be in some sort of 'actions' to attract people's attention.

Action 2

Action 3

Action 4

Action 5

Action 6 - even to the extend of chasing after the bubbles...

Mask on...

Mask off....he refused to take off the costume until he got to go to sleep that night

@ No doubt, Vincent enjoys being a spiderboy very much. I think if we give him this costume to wear everyday, he will take it happily. But William, he likes it for '5 min' only. On the party that day, he refused to dress it up no matter how we've persuaded him.
