Pasta with beetroot and sweetcorn sauce

Sunday breakfast, mummy decided to cook pasta with beetroot and sweetcorn sauce for the sisters.
As usual, mummy will opt for fast and quick preparation and cooking before the two sisters wake up. Mummy is also super lazy on the Sunday morning, luckily mummy does not have to cut the beetroot, sweetcorn and blend them into juice.
Mummy used beetroot and sweetcorn powder by Zoey's Kitchen. The Homemade Dehydrated Organic Beetroot mixed Sweetcorn Powder is full of nutrients and healthy for babies at the age of 1.
The pasta sauce contained natural sweetness and the sisters like it so much.
Recipe of the pasta with beetroot and sweetcorn cause is as follows:
Ingredients:-
~ 2x Tablespoon (or more) Zoey's Kitchen beetroot and sweetcorn powder mixed with 200ml water - as sauce
~ diced carrot
~ fresh mushroom
~ chopped garlic

4. Add in the pasta and stir well.

Pancake making day

Saturday is always the bonding time with my children. Today mommy made vegetable pancake with Anna.
I fell that it is so easy to use the instant vegetable powder. I do not have to chop and mince the vegetables into small cube and put in the pancake.
The vegetable powder consists of organic brocolli, organic purple cabbage, organic carrots, organic tomatoes and yellow onion. It is good for baby to have a full set of vegetables nutrients. Furthermore, it is good for kids who do not like vegetables too.

Different between BLW, TW and FF

When my babies were 5 months old, I started to do a lot of research,
exploring how to prepare my babies for solid food.
I realised that there is three ways of letting babies start their solid.
Baby lead weaning (BLW), Traditional Weaning (TW) and Finger food (FF).
To me, I understand myself well that I can't really let baby do 100% BLW. Hence, I choosed traditional weaning and finger food.
As a start, I gave my babies try avocado puree, apple puree. Research shows that it is good to introduce one food for at least three days.
This is good for you to observe whether there is any allergy or sensitivity on your baby.
Then, I started to introduce porridge. Types of porridge that I cook are Anchovies and spinach porridge, carrot and potato porridge.
Sometimes, I feel that I am running out of idea of what type of porridge to cook for her.
As for Finger food, I will let my babies to hold and eat (play) with steamed brocolli, steamed carrot and cut apples.
I also gave my babies eat baby biscuit, rice crackers. This is when I am eating, and I will train my babies to sit at the high chair and eat together with us.
But of cos, in the early months, like 7th months, she will play with the food more than eating. The whole floor was messy.
I don't really mind of cleaning up. I gave my babies the silicone bib, so most of the food will drop to the bib.
However, sometimes i also crack my head to think is there any other variety of food that I can cook for my babies besides porridge?
How to make sure that my babies receive all the nutrients from the food they eat?
Hence, it is our pleasure to have Ms Jamie from Zoey's Kitchen to share with us how to cook a healthy and balance meal for babies.
In the workshop, she will demostrate how to cook different types of food for babies and ensure that all the meals that babies are eating a healthy and diet balanced.
Come and join us on 9th July 2017, at Mikali Cafe.

Ways to develop sensory play

Children in the old days were more adventurous because they play anything at home or outdoor. They played in the river, catch flying insects and even climb trees. They were learning their life skills and develop their sensory skills while playing.
Due to security issues, children nowadays are "confined" at home everyday. They are immersed with technology devices since they are young. Parents use to give the kids a smartphone so that they can sit still while having their meals. Even like my one year old girl, she knows how to turn on the TV by using a remote control because she observes how we do every day.
Experts say that it is not healthy to let the children exposed to the technology devices in their early age. Parents should reduce their screen time and let them interact with people in real life, let them have a lot of physical play to develop their sensory skills.
Play based learning is crucial for toddlers. Play based learning draws from children’s natural desire to engage in experiences based on their interests, strengths and developing skills. When children initiate play, they are more motivated to learn and develop positive dispositions towards learning.
The parents play an important role to arrange and facilitate play based learning program for children. Creativity in arranging play area with suitable play materials will catch the attention of children and increase their attention in playing.
Play based learning is an interesting area of knowledge to explore especially for parents. JOJO Cuties and D'Little are arranging a super mom sharing session on ways to develop sensory skills of Children through playing on next Sunday, 28/5 at Mikali Cafe. Feel free to join us!
