Dyn-Dyn's Playground Experience in Biñan Organik Farm.

When we visited my parents back in Biñan, we also checked out the playground that was built near Laguna de Bay. The sun isn't that scorching hot as it is just around 6:00 in the morning. However, since it rained the previous night, the ground is quite muddy.

We checked first if the slide was something that we would like to try, but since there were multiple traces of mud in the slide, we opted not to. Tita @blessie2000 just sat first on the swing and then, after she was done, we let Dyn-Dyn use it. Welp, I am not that sure if it is okay for the swing to be used by other people as the paint has been removed, rust is all over the place, and if you see the gap on the ground, it is mud. April tried to sway Dyn-Dyn, but as you can see in the picture, she isn't that at ease.

After that, we tried to check what other games we could play. There are a lot of kiddos playing in the mini house, but then again, we opted not to because it is too muddy. We might probably do it if we were from the area, but I am not 100% sure as we try to make her as dirty as possible since we do not have extra clothes brought with us.

We tried this ride to see if Dyn would be able to use it safely. She tried to stand! But then, after a few seconds, we noticed that it was not a good ride for her. She is excited, but each time she tries to stand and jump, our hearts will beat fast. Yes, April's still holding her and she is as energetic as she should be. Maybe once you become a parent, even the littlest thing can make you paranoid, especially with your child, but then again, you will be reminded that they need to learn stuff on their own and let them explore with some guidance along the way.

Before we left, we let her walk on her own. Compared to our place in San Pablo, where there are a lot of pebbles and the pavement isn't smooth, this could be a good place for her to practice walking. I think in our place, the only smooth surface except for our home is the roadside which was just renovated recently and is being laid on.

We had no idea she could walk at full scale without our assistance. We took a video of her walking and it lasted more than a minute, which is a huge leap as in previous weeks when she was trying to walk in our home, her hands were stuck on the walls as they serve as a guide. She also tried to run with precautions, and she was doing well too. This is where we realized that she needed a larger space to walk on and where she could roam around. So when we went home, Sunday morning, after getting some good rest, we tried to tidy up some spaces and let her run wild in the house.

Playing outside is something that should be done. But because of the pandemic, a lot of kids are not allowed to be elsewhere. We plan to let her be exposed to the outside environment with some kids too, as it is needed for her development. In our place, there are a few kids that she can play with; thus, amusement parks and malls will just be the options for her to interact with others. If time and money allow, we might go to Kidzoona on Thanksgiving Weekend; we were just waiting for her to walk steadily because we don't think she'll enjoy crawling in there, but now that she can, I'm looking forward to our visit.
