Kai's friends

Kai has many friends, so has his Mum.

Nearly every day after 10 am in the morning till lunch time and after 4 pm in the afternoon, there are baby-and-mum (or baby-and-grandma) meetings. The babies range from 1 month old to 2 years old. They share toys and play together.

Where we meet


The baby team and their mums


It was not easy to get a photo of nearly all the babies standing in a line. Especially Kai, he was the one who protested the most!

the big face: give me the toy!


We hope the little boy won't mind that we call him the big face. We are not being rude, but that's the easiest way to remember him. He is only 6 months old, and his face is double the size of Kai's, and he is even heavier than Kai.

Kai: Can I have a kick as well?


Occasionally there are older boys playing around or cycling around. Normally they are not willing to play with the small babies or toddlers.

Kai: I got badminton racket, can we play together?


The little girl is called Tongtong. Normally she is generous, and she shares toys with other toddlers.

Kai: Let me push you!

The boy in blue has a very traditional pushchair, which his mum purchased
in the countryside. I think it's great for summer, as toddlers can sit upright in it without harness, with a lot of leg room, and it's quite safe. It even has a fit-in music board for toddlers to play with.

another good friend of Kai


The little white dog, one of the family members of the big face, is called Laiwang, which means "Luck is coming". Kai especially likes this friend. Every time when Kai meets him, Kai calls out GAO GAO (Chinese for doggy) from even far away.

Lovely pictures, a very interresting push chair (but they can't sleep in it lying down which was one of our main uses of the push chair!!), and how lucky are you to have so many nice ,ooking people to meet and to play with. You chose a good place to live in.
