Good day to dear readers and visitors of my blog. Everyone has got busy lifestyle and there's time that we need to pay attention to our children. Especially a mother, you probably know how tough it is juggling your different responsiblities at work and at home.

Coming towards end of the year soon and we as parents we know that we got to shop new shoes for our children. Sharing is caring, I always want to choose the best for my sons. Therefore important for me choose the school shoes that are light weight and COMFORT to wear. Our children are growing, not just their body, their mind but also their little feet too. Important that we find suitable shoes for them to wear, as you know next year is 2020. Children can still wear White Shoes for year 2020 and it's still my first choice to choose white shoes because I find it more hygiene compare to Black shoes. Next year is the final year of wearing white shoes and my sons too agree to wear for the last year.

My children Sean is gonna be 14 years old, that's FORM 2 next year while his little brother gonna be Standard 3 next year. Sharing is caring, Sean's little brother is wearing shoes model 307-0164 W, which is Extra Light Weight!

Wow2wee website has variety of school shoes, white colors win my heart as white shoes hygiene, reduce the risk of mosquitoes bites, and gives the heat dispersion. When my son's shoes get wet, they are easily dry up too!

As for Sean who is Form 2 next year, he knows that everyone in school most of them are wearing shoes with laces. You can see the photo of shoes below, these are shoes model 307-196W.

The Velcro type available and also the Pallas Jass Star Low Cut Shoe Lace, the shoes rubber insole for better rebound (insole not easy to collapse), it is more comfy and it has New fitting (broader fitting). Don't worry if you are thinking that your son might not fit in, they have sizes up to #13. Sean's wearing the size of #11. I must say I understand that it's not easy to find big size shoes, especially for children who are growing up. Whenever I found the suitable shoes for my children, I would stock up a few pairs. Rain or shine we know that children need to wear their school shoes to school.

Don't worry if you thinking about their sizes and whether the shoes fit or not.

The IPC Tack Club
From the humble beginnings when Mutiara Damansara was still an up-and-coming hot spot, the neighbourhood shopping centre has diversified into more than just a shopping destination for the community. It has evolved into an inspirational space for all walks of life to meet, shop, dine, learn and create happy memories together.


This year, in conjunction with its 16th anniversary, IPC Shopping Centre will be extending its relationship with its partners and shoppers through its new loyalty programme called the IPC Tack Club, for shoppers to enjoy so much more rewards and perks from the shopping centre.

We do this by consistently identifying opportunities to improve the customer journey through new trends that reflect a well-curated mix of retail and dining concepts, as well as a personalised shopping experience. We understand how consumers have become accustomed to digital self-service through their experiences with mobile apps and online retailing.

‘Tack’ which means ‘Thank You’ in Swedish will offer customers with perks and rewards for each purchase at the shopping centre. The program will further extend IPC’s successful digital capabilities, following the success of the award-winning Mood Menu feature - to play an active role in shaping shopper’s experience before and after their visits.

One more Is Go Green with cucumber, carrot, green apple and celery. Dining in alfresco dining area at The View Café on Level 5 at Best Western i-City.

 

That's our lunch and we head back the room to rest and watch TV, we bring along the board games. Kids loving it playing the snake and ladder board game. It was rainy in the evening and we have got a good time as I have play along too. It takes a long time to complete the game as the snake kept swallowing us.

In the evening there's rain and we didn't want to get out of the room. Good thing there's Room Service, yeah have anyone tried out the QR code for ordering food? This is their new ordering system! Just scan the QR code it is located at the wall of dressing table in the hotel room.

Having our dinner in the room, enjoying the animation movie at the same time.

I really like the Chicken Club Sandwich its delicious at every bite. Yummy meal for the night before sleep as we have our dinner in room. We continue having some fun time with the snake and ladder board game. It's been raining on the Saturday evening we didn't want to get out of the room.

Day 3
In the morning we woke up early to go for breakfast buffet spread at The View Cafe, at Level 5. Yeah when comes to food, there's only one place to go. That's Level 5 in the hotel, I always remembered that. After that, we went for morning walk around the hotel area. It's nice as it brings back lot memories to my son Sean and me when we had a night event together a few years back. Yeah they are changes and Sean no longer a kid now, he's a teenager now.

We also had Sunday Hi-Tea, then headed back to room and then check out at 4pm.
