fun and games

Last weekend, Binbin was twice the lucky guest of indulgent parents who put 10 kuai coins to operate the kiddie rides at Love to Shop. The little motorcycle ride moves surprisingly fast. Binbin holds on tight. He is definitely going for the ride, but he seems to be withholding his judgment.



Yesterday after dinner, we went over to visit Xuanxuan jiejie. She and Binbin don’t always play interactively, but yesterday they engaged in a two-person game that is universally beloved by children throughout the electrified world: one child turns off the lights, the other turns them back one. The game is especially fun when the panel has three switches and two of the three have multiple brightness settings. Binbin actually squealed with delight.

Parting is difficult, but it’s made easier when Ah-yi sends Binbin home with a toy to borrow. Binbin’s favorite is this vending machine. Last night, he figured out that it’s even more fun to use Baba as the vending machine. Deposit the fruit juice cans into the bib of Baba’s overalls, then fish them out from the sides!
