Babies and Car Keys

People say that keys are one of the best toys for babies. They make noises, they see mom and dad using them all the time, and a lot of them are attached to a remote with buttons to press! I usually let my little Kiki-chan play with the car keys, despite that I think it's one of the most contaminated item in our household. She loves it, and we can always wash her hands after. Many times she locks and unlocks our car while we're in a restaurant, shopping, or just out somewhere. Never did I realize how handy that skill could be.... until today.

I was just about to pull out from a parking spot at a bubble tea place when I noticed a family of three, a dad, a toddler boy, and a 1.5 year old girl. They were getting into their car and since the girl still had to be 'packed in', the boy was left outside the car. When the dad went around to let the boy in the car, I saw a horrified look on his face. He had locked them out of the car, with the baby girl inside!

I stopped to see if he needed any help, and having locked his cellphone in with his keys, he wanted to borrow mine. So he made phone calls and getting really worried that his little girl might start crying in the car. 'Help' usually don't arrive right away, it can take up to a half hour. That would seem like forever when you have a little one in there! Well apparently my Kiki-chan was not the only baby who likes to press buttons on keys. As I saw her playing with the keys I excitedly pointed out to the poor dad that she might just unlock the car, which she did!

From now on, I will make sure that Kiki-chan gets a lot of 'practice' time with our keys!

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan. I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Japan Winter Holiday 2017 Part 7 - Otaru Sakaimachi

On our second day in Otaru after we had breakfast and ice cream , we continued walking to Sakaimachi. This shopping street is one of the busiest in the city and is where a lot of Otaru attraction is located. In front of one of the stores there, we saw this cute dog wearing a Minion outfit. Of course Miss Kiki jumped and squealed and asked if she could pet it. We asked permission from the owner to take a picture with it. Along the street they have rock statues in the shape of famous characters like Anpanman and Mickey Mouse. With Anpanman It was a very nice day, we were able to walk around and had fun without feeling cold even though there were a lot of ice and snow. Check out the platforms they set up on the hill. We think that it's to prevent snow slides... Most of the buildings there were old style,,, Many shops sell fresh seafood and they would cook it for you by order. As we walked past a souvenir shop, we saw a poster for these snowball make...

Spring in Egypt Part 9 - Luxor Temple

At the time when we arrived at Luxor temple it was already after dusk and it became a little difficult to take photos. I compensated by setting my camera ISO to 4000 to make tripod-less picture-taking possible even though the grains became more visible. Just like the previous nights, the moon still looked round to me. I wasn't sure which one of those moons was the actual full moon. We walked around the temple first with Michael for explanations about the temple. In the distance we were able to hear the adzan calling the people for prayer. Situated in the east bank, the construction of the temple was started by Amenhotep III, continued and finished by the famous King Tut and Horemheb, and then added on to by Rameses II and finally by Alexander the Great. Unlike the other temples we had previously visited, this temple is not dedicated to a single cult/god. Instead, it is used as a place to rejuvenate kingship. May of the kings were said to have been coronated at this temple. ...
