It’s the school holiday and my kids are having more fun than ever. Their cousins will stay at home to play with them sometimes, so I have more babysitters to watch over Justin and Isabelle. LOL! But we have to think of something to keep the kids busy, if not they will only be watching DVD, fighting for toys, climbing up and down the exercise machine or digging the drawers for pocket watch or anything they can find.

Yesterday, MIL bought some glutinous rice flour for the kids to prepare tang yuan. I have always wanted to buy the Playdough set but I’m worried about Isabelle mistakenly put the dough in her mouth, so it’s safer for her to play with glutinous rice flour.

Making tang yuan

They really enjoyed the making process yesterday, but not all the tang yuan were round. Those in longer forms were made by Justin and Isabelle who don’t know how to roll the rice balls yet.

Not so pretty tang yuan huh?

Tang Yuan

They seemed to enjoy drinking the soup but Justin and Isabelle still don’t know how to chew the sticky rice balls. Mmm…maybe we should try sushi some other day. They did sushi a few times, but I didn’t snap any photos as my hands were busy. How about baking a cake? That would be something nice to occupy their free time now.
