It's baaaaack! Yes, we're talking about the ParenThots Family Day!
It's half a day of fun, games and food, giving parents a chance to bond with their children. It also offers children a chance to play some fair-like games or even just run around.
This year we have face-painting, a crafts workshop, a chance to play all sorts of games and win prizes and a chance to decorate your own cupcake or sandwich.
For parents, there will be special quiz games – study some of the topics on ParenThots if you want to win exciting prizes from Blackmores, Borders Bookstores, John Wiley & Sons, Kids Station, Philips Malaysia and Scholastic Books.
We're having it in August this year as the end of year tends to coincide with the rainy season.
