Little Prince - Children's Cafe

My friend Jennifer and I went on a hunt today to find a place we had both heard about from others... a children's cafe. We found it on the 5th floor of a nondescript building in New City. It was the neatest place! Once you step out of the elevator, you are in the cafe. You take off your shoes and place them in a locker, put on slippers they provide and get stickers to put on the child's back. Then off the children run! So many things to play with and on. The staff seated us at a table and provided a menu in English. There is a call button on the table when you are ready to place your order. We had a wonderful meal and a nice visit. It costs about $5 per child for two hours of playtime. The staff corralled all the children and set them up in a smaller room to make a snack. It looked like flatted white bread that they put some meat and vegetables in and rolled it up and ate it. The staff played with the kids and really seemed to enjoy being with them. There are monitoring screens up all over the place so you can view the entire play area from most anywhere in the place.It was a lot of fun. The girls hated to leave, but we promised we would take them back again some day. Wish they had places like this in the states. January 14, 2010

The Nature Girl's Party

This is OLD news... back from when we moved to Korea, but I have some catching up to do, so bear with me. :)

By the time the Nature Girl's birthday had rolled around, we had met many more families, so we were able to invite them over for a birthday party. We had such a great time! Aug 28, 2009


The Nature Girl's Birthday Cake made by mommy


I set up several tables around the living room. This ended up as the little kids' table. Here the Nature Girl has a taco hanging out of her mouth.


All the Korean children sat together at this table. I think they were a bit nervous to be surrounded by so many American children when they don't speak English. The oldest boy understands English the best. He is Hiyoung's brother, Hamon. The twins, Meana and Sua joined us, too!



Time to blow out the candles


Look at that happy face!

The Artist wanted to make something for her sister for her birthday. She colored a folded heart. It was so sweet.

We have been blessed to have met so many neat people in such a short time of being here... it has only been 2 months! God has provided so much for us!

The Artist's Party

This is OLD news... back from when we moved to Korea, but I have some catching up to do, so bear with me. :)

Seeing as how we were new to Korea and we really didn't know anyone to have a birthday party for the Artist, we decided to make cupcakes and take them down to the playground and share them with whoever was down there. The Artist was excited about the idea and wanted to help get things ready. The girls helped me buy juice boxes and frost cupcakes. I asked my Korean friend, Yoona, to translate for us so the kids would know they were welcome to eat cupcakes and celebrate with us. July 10, 2009








The Artist with her cupcakes to share. She is so excited!


The children all sang "Happy Birthday" in Korean! It was great and I wish I would have caught it on video, but I was still learning my camera at that time, so no video.


This was a great way for them to meet some new friends down at the playground.
