Happy, Happy Transportation – Jelly Mould Transportation (part I)

Jing Yi’s mother borrowed us some cookie mould with assorted transportation and animal shape. It’s wonderful. So the children had tried with bread for their morning Chinese session by using the animal mould. This time round, we decided to try using agar-agar jelly and see if the mould will work the same as on the bread.

Today, we had all the ingredients and materials for making the agar-agar jelly. While waiting for the water to boil, we had a story telling session.

Tubby and Speedy

Tubby is a tractor who moves very slow while Speedy is a race car who moves very fast. Speedy is very arrogant and always tease Tubby. One time, it started to rain for day and night. All the roads are very slippery. Yet, Speedy still moves as fast as usual. He didn’t care about the muddy water landed on the farm animal. However, Speedy moves too fast and he landed in the pond. He was drenched and farmer Bell has to get Tubby to tow him out from the water. Now, Tubby hooted at Speedy as he is moving faster than him.

When the water was boiled, we added in the agar-agar and we used a mixture of tropical fruit and mango as our flavour. The children took turns to stir the agar-agar jelly. Some of them are quite brave while some didn’t dare to move near. After some encouragement, everyone had their turn to stir the agar-agar. Tomorrow we shall try to make the mould of the transportation.

See, I can do it!

I'm not afraid, I also can do it!

Tomorrow we shall try to make the mould of the transportation. Hopefully it works.
