First visit outdoor after 6 weeks

It's K first venture outdoor (to the supermarket) after staying indoor for 6 weeks. She was super excited over the new norm of everyone wearing face mask when outdoor. While walking to the car, she mentioned

"Mama, it's been a long time since I last sat in the car. I'm happy to go out for a ride."

On well, habits are formed after 21 days and I don't deny that by staying indoor for 6 weeks can definitely create new habits or make one afraid of venturing out again.

She surveyed the mall and asked various questions

  • Why are not all the shops open?
  • Why are there only certain entrance open?
  • Why are the floor plastered with tapes?
After our quick 30mins in the NTUC grabbing essentials, we are on the way home. She found it super uncomfortable to breathe while wearing the mask and eventually told me that she prefer to stay home instead of going out.

Staying indoor has kept her and L busy with various art classes (supplies that I bought online), refurbish recycled materials, kept eating and drinking, watching television and playing lots on games, conduct and experienced various science experience etc.
