The picnic went off pretty good, with a good turnout and lots of kids running around and enjoying the Bungalow’s facilities.
There was the sandbox, little blow up horses to ride, the trampoline to jump on, Cupcake decorating with the Doodlebug ladies, arts and crafts in the courtyard, storytelling by Ann of the Roving library. And for the grownups, there were some great vendors to browse through.
There was Chicken and Sausages on the BBQ with hot dog rolls and salad, sandwich rolls, home made cookies and cupcakes and plenty of cold drinks in the ice box. Lots of parents bought their own picnic too, and enjoyed eating it out on the grass in the open air.
Upstairs, the bento-making proved very popular (thanks Christene!) while there was plenty of mamas helping mamas with learning how to ring sling and what cloth padding is all about – Mama Patch, Jumpsac and Mei’s Mei Tai were in attendance. (no, the cloth pad making demo didn’t happen, but hopefully next time! I think we were too busy chilling out downstairs).
Thanks to everyone for making it such a success, we hope everyone had a great time and that you’ll want to come to the next one!

Looks like there’s sufficient interest, so please do come and spread the word among your friends who are sceptical about babywearing and cloth diapering 
maybe we will get some converts!
The swap meet will be on Sat 31/1/09 between 2pm and 6pm at the Bungalow@damai
Everyone is welcome – if you want to find out more about cloth diapering, baby wearing or you are already doing both and want to get some great bargains on preloved items. If you have preloved items you’re no longer using, be sure to bring them along and maybe you can swap it for something you will use more / sell it for some pocket money!
Here are the details for the day :
2pm – welcome, chat and swap / buy / sell
3pm – 3.30pm – Short talk on Babywearing by Jess (proposed right now, can’t quite seem to be able to get hold of Jess
3.30pm – 4pm – Intro talk and video on Baby Signs
4pm – 4.30pm – Short talk on Cloth Diapering and about Doodlebugs
We’ll end up around 6pm to 7pm, but won’t be rushing people out, looking forward to a nice relaxed meet up with everyone
The talks are obviously only if you want to listen! They’ll be held at a room on the side.
The Tiny Tapir shop things will all only be in the shop room, and will be open if you want to go and browse our things too, but the Lounge and grassy area will be only for the swap / preloved items.
There won’t be any food or refreshments (other than water!) provided as it’s a free event unless we manage to find someone who wants to set up a food stall for the event.
Appreciate everyone’s help to promote the event
Tiny Tapir will be giving a quick talk on Cloth Diapering (for newbies).
The following shops are likely to be there :
Tiny Tapir (obviously!)
Lil Danzell
Mama Paradise
Ezmotherhood
Our Next Breastfeeding Talk : -
Breastfeeding & Nutrition Talk
Learn EVERYTHING you can about BREASTFEEDING
before your BABY is born!!
Many mothers are expected to just “know how to do it”, but the truth is–
although breastfeeding is a natural process, it needs to be LEARNT!!
Gina Yong believes that Health is the most important thing in Life and that it is our responsibility to preserve it. She is a mother of 4 beautiful children. She failed to breastfeed her eldest son but after much determination and research, she successfully breastfeed the other 3. After attaining her training and practical experiences from the USA, Gina is now a Wellness Consultant and a Breastfeeding Counselor. She is also a Success Coach and has helped many parents in giving the best of life to their children. She hopes that through her education and research, more babies will be added into the small statistics of “Exclusively Fed on Mommy’s Milk”.

For everyone who visited us at the Parenthood Fair this last weekend at Midvalley (I know there were a few of you who made the trip specially to see us!) – a huge big thank you for your support.
We’ll be putting up photos of the stall soon and a write up of what happened and what is involved in doing one of these events (seriously, it’s pretty exhausting).
Unfortunately we didn’t do so great in terms of sales this fair 
– it’s expensive to take part and sales didn’t justify the effort and expense. Hopefully some new people know about us now and it will pay off in the long term. We’re still debating whether or not to take part in next year’s fair or not…
We at Tiny Tapir really do need your support – without your support we can’t continue to get in interesting new products or offer reasonable prices.
Today’s the first day of the 4th Parenthood Fair at Midvalley.
It’s HUGE! This year is the biggest Parenthood Fair held in Malaysia so far – previous years there was only one Hall occupied at the Mid Valley Exhibition Center. This year there’s two!
Dumex has gone all out in Exhibition Hall 2 with a huge bouncy castle (ok it’s not a castle, it’s a germ shaped bouncy thing) and educational games.
There are also programs throughout the fair, such as babywearing how-tos, and many competitions with some great prizes.
So if you have some spare time, head over to the Exhibition Center – there are some really good deals going on for mothers, with lots of freebies.
Tiny Tapir is doing a ‘free natural Soapy Soap’ if you sign up at our booth. We’ve completely stuffed our booth full of our goodies too! (photos coming soon)
