kids playing room ^-^

One of the pending things from my what to do list is to deco Adam's playing room..
I was so happy and excited when finally I got the right time to do all the deco things..
* kalau dulu thesis tak settle, my hubby akan jeling smcm kalau I kata nak g kemas bilik Adam tu..
But now I can hv my exclusive time at that room..yeay!!
I just about 50% done, sb main things I have to keep all those stuff yang mmg dah tak pakai..
I keep all those baby stuffs, from clothes, toys, all the cot bumper, baby carrier everything, packed and put at the right placed..
Since I just only have a small apartment, all those area like bawah katil, on top my wardrobe..senang cite
semua tmpt boleh masuk, I sumbat..keep it well so that adik Adam boleh pakai nanti.
So balance to do is to put some ideas for decorations and make the environment safe for the kid.
Yang penting, the playing room is good place for him to express his idea..
* wah wah.;)

Since the 2nd room tu pun takde lah luas sgt..with mommy single bed time bujang2 dulu...
So its really important about the susun atur..so that tak de lah sempit sangat tempat dia nak main..
For time being, Adam's cot still inside our room, mmg tak plan nak beli bed for him..
So thats why I just maintained katil kat ctu...
Hopefully bila Adam dah beradik nanti, kami mampu duduk landed house...
Keje nak deco pun lagik best kan ;)

Mmmm...so since I'm not so good in deco ni, I tried to get more ideas from internet..
Some picture saved from the googles..




Basicly, bnyk ideas from IKEA..
I really heart this blue children set..




Its really imprortant to have suitable rack for the toys and books..




I really really love this room..




Lampu ni pun cantik kan??




Storage rack tu kan one of the things I plan to buy..
Banyak kali survey, tp unfortunately bilik tu sempit..terpaksa diketepikan...
seddey ;(
Pakai aje rack sedia ada...



Playing mat..



Sweet and nice..



I love this one too..
I love the bed so much..




Cita2 lama dulu..
konon nak deco baby room..




Che mimi sila amik idea ni deco bilik Nuh..



Ikea was on sale till this Sunday, 1st August..
Right time to buy apa yg patut..
But yet, still have to ensure not to maximize the room..
crowded pun tak best jagk kan...

I'm still looking for more ideas..
Guys sharelah tmpt u all selalu shopp' for ur kids bedroom..
Hopefully I managed to settle the room immediately...
Buat sikit2 dulu  * tang deco tu, nanti sikit2 lama jadik bukit..
hahhaha..bukit sb dah tak nampak Adam kat dalam tu...jadik crowded...
No no no..

ok lah..gtg...hubby's waiting...
Till then..

Potty Train Part II: Buy the right equipments!

Since my last entry about potty training, I havent make any progress actually..
It just that Adam started showing his readiness towards free diapering..
And plus with Mommy Nadine pun dah start nak potty train Faaz..
* best dah ada geng..semangat sket!
Adam pun dah start to tell us everytime dia "koo koo" (words for poo poo)..
Few incidents when he woke up at night telling that he has pooped inside the diaper..
and last week he woke us and told papa that he koo koo..
Bangunlah my hubby checked diaper Adam ..tk de pun..
After changed him to new diaper, he keep telling us koo koo..
Lepas tu suddenly dia turun katil and squating..
Few minutes Adam came back to us and show his bum bum..
and yeap his just pooped in his diaper..
Penat lah kena bangkit tukar plak!

But yet, Adam pun ada sometimes gv false alarm..
"mommy..koo koo.."
masuk2 bathroom..main air rupanya..2x already mommy kena!

Bnyk benefits sebenarnye bila anak kita dah free diapering..
Mostly bolehlah save duit beli diapers..
Tiap2 ari tengok bnyk sgt pakai diapers..its not really good for the environment!
* poyo plak tiba2 citer psl environment...but its true kan!
But before that, we have to ensure his readiness, kalau tak susah jgak!
Plus nak kena prepare equipments jgak bila nak potty train ni..

I got a good article from babycentre, as a steps towards potty train!
Info about the equipments for potty train..
Jom tgk ;)


ABC of POTTY TRAINING

A Assess your child's readiness
B Buy the right equipments
C Create a routine
D Ditch the nappy
E Explain the process
F Foster independence
G Grab some training pants
H Handle steback gracefully
I Introduce hight training
J Jump for joy --  you're done!


******************


BUY A RIGHT EQUIPMENTS

Potties

Potty is, as the name suggests, a pot-like object for your child to use instead of his nappy or the toilet. It is an intermediary step. Most children use a potty for a few weeks or months before moving to an adult toilet. Potties are small at approximately one foot high, and are placed on the floor. It is a good idea to buy a potty and put it in to your bathroom before your toddler is actually ready to begin potty training. This lets him get used to the sight and idea of the potty.



Pros 

- Potty is easy for toddler to hop onto himself. This may vaulable seconds and help to avoid accidents
- This potty is portable. You can move it from room to room in your house, park it in front of the
television or even can take it with you if you are away from hone. This means that it is possible to maintain your toddler potty training routine.
- Potties come in many different colors, Some have even the pictures on them. letting your chil choose his own potty will help the whole process more fun

Cons

• The potty can easily be knocked over.
• Cleaning the potty is not a pleasant job, and not as simple as flushing the toilet.
 

• The potty is smaller than a toilet, which makes it much less daunting for your child. 



Potty from mothercare..
*muat ke bum bum Adam ni??


   
the bjorn!


  
Potty chairs


Potty chairs are bigger than regular potties. They have a sturdy base with a removable potty part for easy cleaning.


Pros
• Potty chairs are more stable than regular potties so your child will feel more secure sitting on it.
• A potty chair doesn't require your child to squat as he would with a regular potty so he may find it more comfortable.
• Potty chairs are particularly good for larger toddlers.


Cons 
• Potty chairs are bulky and take up more space than a regular potty.
• Potty chairs are not portable, so you will still need a potty to use when you are not at home.





yg ni mcm besar sket..



But design ni cantik jgak!



Pull-up pants

Pull-up pants look like normal underwear but are made from the same material as nappies. How absorbent they are depends on the brand you buy.

Pros
• Pull-up pants allow your toddler to feel like a grown up. He can prepare himself to use the loo by pulling his pants down, and can pull them back up himself when he's finished.
• If your toddler does have any accidents during this potty training phase, the pull-up pants can absorb them and then easily be thrown away, just like disposable nappies.
• Pull-up pants can act as an intermediate step, as your toddler works up to normal underwear.
• Even when your child is in pants during the day, absorbent pull-ups can be useful at night so your child doesn't feel like he is being made to wear "babyish" nappies.

Cons
• Using pull-up pants may slow down the training process. Once they are on they will feel like a nappy so your child may forget he is supposed to be using the potty. Some parents prefer to put their toddler in normal underwear straight away and be done with it.
• Some brands of pull-up pants are only designed to cope with small accidents. This means that many are not suitable for your toddler to wear at night.

* Awal2 nak starts, boleh lah ajar pakai pull up pants dulu..



Trainer pants

Trainer pants are washable cotton pants with a waterproof outer layer. They are used as a stepping stone between nappies and real pants.


Pros
• Trainer pants allow your child to feel when he is wet while offering some protection against accidents.
• Unlike pull-up pants, trainer pants do not feel like a nappy, so will help your child to remember about using his potty.

Cons
• Trainer pants offer only limited protection against accidents. If your child's bladder is full you will still end up with a puddle on the floor.
• Trainer pants do not have the same "big boy" or "big girl" appeal of real pants.

The good article about this can get at farrahim blog as below...mmg useful..tahnks farah!

Toilet step stools

A toilet step stool is basically a platform that your toddler can step on to so that he can reach the toilet alone.

Pros
• The step stool will enable your toddler to reach the toilet on his own. This will save time and help your child to feel much more grown up and capable.
• The step stool can double up as a way for your toddler to reach other things, such as the sink.

Cons
• If your bathroom is small you may find it a nuisance when you wish to use the loo.
• The step stool is bulky and not particularly portable, so you probably won't take it with you when you go out. This may confuse your toddler, as you'll seem willing to help him with the toilet when you're out but not so keen when you are at home.





Bila dah besar sket..Adam age 3-4 yrs..br boleh starts teach to use this..
with the training seat!


Training seats

A training seat is a small toilet seat that fits on top of your regular toilet seat. It can be padded to make it more comfortable for your child. Some are lifted on and off when your child is using the toilet, others are attached to a full-sized seat with a hinge.

Pros
 • The training seat means you can miss out on the potty stage. Your toddler can advance directly from using nappies to the toilet.
• A training seat that lifts off is portable. You can easily take it with you wherever you go.
• With a training seat, your child's waste goes straight into the toilet so all you need to do is flush.
• Training seats can be bought in a variety of colours and styles to make the whole process more fun. Allowing your child to choose which training seat he likes best will help him to feel more in control, and encourage him to not only use it, but want to use it.
• Training seats that have a splashguard at the front are especially useful for boys when they are sitting down to wee.

Cons
• The training seat can only be used in one room, the bathroom. This means that your toddler may find it difficult to reach the toilet in time, and climb onto it before an accident occurs.
• Some designs are a bit wobbly, and some really are no more comfortable than sitting on the proper seat.
• As well as the training seat, you will also need to get a step stool to allow your toddler to reach the loo alone. Even with a step stool your toddler's legs may still dangle over the side of the loo. This may make your child feel slightly unstable and less confident.




Good things about bjorn..all the potty stuffs semuanye BPA free...
* tp kan nak letak kat bumbum je kan...ape kesah!


Books

There are lots of story books available about learning to use a potty. Reading them with your toddler might help explain potty training in a fun and exciting way. Here are a few book suggestions from BabyCentre:


I Want My Potty (Anderson Press) by Tony Ross.


The Potty Book - for Boys (Barron's Educational Series) by Alyssa Satin Capucilli and Dorothy Stott.


The Potty Book - for Girls (Barron's Educational Series) by Alyssa Satin Capucilli and Dorothy Stott.


Uh Oh! Gotta Go! (Barron's Educational Series) by Bob McGrath and Shelley Dieterichs.


The Pop-Up Potty Book (Orion Children's) by Marianne Borgardt and Maxie Chambliss.


Fisher Price Royal Stepstool Potty

Out of all the potty stuffs....
How I wish my hubby can approve proposal to buy this potty!
Fisher price which really hi price!
But yet ada musics..best kan..
Sambil poo poo boleh dgr musics!hahahhaha...


Let go and grab the suitable potty equipments!
