“Since it is the year-end holidays and also the Christmas season, I will get Desiree to put up Christmas decorations, wrap gifts and help me to bake Christmas cakes. My husband and I will ask Desiree to write our Christmas gift list, too,” Melissa says. “I think this will be fun because Desiree will learn to measure the ingredients accurately and decorate them to her liking. But, of course, she will be in charge of clean-up duties too.

“I am looking forward to batik painting and tufting because I can explore my creativity. A few months ago, Mummy and I signed up for a tufting workshop and we had so much fun. I especially enjoyed using the tufting gun to ‘shoot’ yarn into the fabric. Tufting is interesting because one needs to learn to control the pressure and speed applied when using the tufting gun to get the right results.

“It is nice when we get to do that with her. She and I have a “Girls Day Out” where we go get manicures and shop together. On ‘Father/Daughter days, they do fun stuff such as visiting Petrosains, Muzium Negara or the Planetarium,” Melissa shares.
