Playdates in Pasir Ris

[Laynee]

Hi,

I'm a stay at home mum in Pasir Ris.
Keen to meet other mummies in the area and organise playdates for our kids.
I have 2 boys. They are 4 & 2 years old.
Looking forward to some replies

I'm living in Pasir Ris too. My son is 16 months old and I've got a little girl due in March. Heard of playdates but dont't really know what they involve. Can enlighten me?

Currently, I'm still teaching but will be going on leave in March till the end of the year.

Hi DoDo,

Good to hear from another mummy in Pasir Ris

Playdates are when mummies with kids get together to have a fun time, make new friends, exchange ideas, chit chat etc.

It can also be an activity like going to the beach/ park, in someone's home or meeting in a public place like a playground, restaurant.

I personally think that it's a good opportunity for kids to meet other friends outside school.

Which part of Pasir Ris at you staying? I'm near the mrt station.

Thanks I live near Loyang Point. Think it could be a while before my kids go on playdates though; they're still kinda young

i stay in the west, but i go to Pasir Ris Park (playground) every friday. I dont't mind meeting mommies with toddlers who might be interested to come by and say hi. I have a 22 month old dotter. Add me on msn (shystah@gmail.com) and we might be able to set up a meeting.

Hi
I dont't mind joining you there! What time do you go there?

[tika]

Add me on msn (shystah@gmail.com) and we can set a date and time to meet at the park. Not going today since it rained the whole morning and i bet the playground is wet.

When I do take my kids to the playground, it's always a last minute thing
Will try to arrange to go on Friday to meet up if possible.

Does anyone go to Explorerkidz at Downtown East?

i brought my todd there a few weeks back. She didn't seem to enjoy herself as much as when she was at Polliwogs.

I find most indoor playground mazes a tad bit too cramp for an adult to accompany a child (peek-a-boo, explorerkidz, gogo bambini, fidgets). However, the one at Polliwogs is spacious enough for an adult to crouch about comfortably. Have you been to Polliwogs? We go there quite often. Plus I like the fact that once my todd gets bored indoors, we can always run outside and play with the sand by the beach!

Hi

I have a 23mths old toddler gal and 1mth+ newborn gal. I stay Pasir Ris and currently on maternity leave till mid March.

My 1st gal just started going for morning childcare ... and soon fullday (no choice and heartache) before I go back to work.

Now my everyday routine with my 1st gal is morning school, afternoon nap and after her nap, i will try to bring her out. Becos she starts to mess up the house and 'attacks' the meimei at times. =oS

Would be glad to join you and your kids for playdates around this area. =o)

*Can only hang out for a few hours cos breastfeeding so rather inconvi to stay out long with a kid. =o)
