If you want to get a slinky for your kid. Don't go for the plastic ones because they don't work. If you want, test if first and if the slinky works on the spot, get it. Else, it's a waste of money.

Slinky that doesn't work
Christmas tree at home in Singapore
We bought a synthetic Xmas tree that looked like the real tree from Carrefour five years ago. Carrefour is no longer in Singapore.
-
We also bought ornaments for adorning the shoots and leaves. However, we have never got anything to decorate the apex of our Xmas tree.
-
Our first Xmas with the tree was when we had our daughter. She was 1 yo then and couldn't yet appreciate the tree. We had the tree out every Xmas since.
-
This year, our girl is going to 4 yo. She was very excited when I got the Xmas tree out. She helped mummy decorated the tree. We had everything except the ornament/star at the apex.
-
Getting a decent and beautiful star from shops is easy, we wanted to try something that will be more meaningful. We helped our girl to DIY the star for our Xmas tree.
-
She was excited and helped to color the star. When it was placed at the top of the tree, she was so proud of herself. Most importantly, she was ecstatic.

Here is her work.

Another surprise about this car is that IT GLOWS in the dark. So cool!

However, if you have less than a year old toddler in the house, remember to keep this car away from him/her because it is a choke hazard.
