December 2007 Market Day

It was the last Sunday of the month again and this time, it's for December 2007. This is the second time we set up stall at the Little Penang Street Market.

As the first time, we have to arrive and set up stall before the visitors start coming in. We arrived at 9.30 am and this time round, Peek-a-Wipes Cases are added to the list.

In addition, as opposed to home-printed business cards, these arrived just the day before (just in time)...

The guys I hired to develop Peekaroobaby.com might have failed to deliver a satisfactory shopping cart system but these business cards are sure very impressive and to me, 'out of the box'. You cannot see it from the pictures but the top is nicely laminated in a way that the stars and rainbow have special effects to them. ;) Very satisfied with these, indeed. The flyers looks great on the PC, too but waiting for budget to actually print them out.

Again, December 2007's market was a family event. The management makes it a point to have activities for children on the day... once again, Arthur enjoyed himself very much.

As I was busy setting up stall...

Judging from the picture, can you guess what happened??

Not really? Take a look at the next pic...

Yes... My Little Arthur 'stole' the doll sling on display again...

Of many performances and songs and dances... the one that caught Arthur's attention most....

Chinese, or rather, Hokkien glove puppet performance... impressive. It was performed by a Living Penang Heritage recipient. Let's just say that it's not easy to get a chance at this...

Then, of course... nap time...

Ok, this next one made my day!

This customer was carrying her DD in a Baby Bjorn when she stopped by my stall. My initial thought was that she won't be getting the sling from me. Probably the taggies...
You guessed it right! I was soooo soooo happy that after my demonstration, she decided to try it on. God knows my feeling when she voiced out her preference of a Peekaroobaby pouch to a Baby Bjorn! Indescribable feeling!

And, oh... keepsakes from the day...

Probably in line with the Clog Painting activity that was going on, there were these mini clogs (as big as my index finger) for keepsake... The thingy next to it is a puzzle piece where one is suppose to seperate the string from the green wrought steel... (no, you don't need tools... just a little intelligence.. which, I still lack hahah...)

There was also a mini windmill (not sure if this is the right term but it's the thing with a flower that moves like a windmill...) made from wrought steel but Arthur just couldn't keep poking at the flower. In the end, it's wrecked.

Market go-ers, see you in 2008!

Babywearers, come join in the fun! Who knows? Market day could one day be our get-together day of the month ;)
