Sending My Child To His First Sleepaway Camp
This December school holiday, we will sending Josiah to his first ever sleepaway camp, not for one night or two nights but for 5 days 4 nights! Camping and staying overnight away from home was never something strange for me. I came from a family of 4 girls and my parents used to always send us to our aunts’ and uncles’ houses during school holidays. I guess now it was because they needed a break from us! I even remembered having sleepovers at my friend’s house when I was really young and had my first rough camp at 14 with just sleeping bags on bamboo floors back in Sarawak. I continued going…

As parents of two boys, we think we know all about their growing up milk. After all, Josiah is 7 and Jordan is 4, we have at least 7 years’ experience about what kind of milk they need. However, recently, I began to realise one thing, I began to wonder about the sugar in their diet. Sure, as adults we are pretty careful about limiting our own sugar intake.
