Ern doesn't like the moving kiddy ride since small. Don't know why!
Whenever we are at the mall, she won't ask to ride but just asked us to bring her there to see other people ride!
Until 12th March 2010, she finally overcome her fear!!
Well, all credits goes to her friend Jie Yan. It was the 'peer pressure' that push Ern to overcome her fear.
The mummies met up for dinner + gathering for the girl. After dinner, Yan's Mummy suggested kiddy ride. My little girl was excited when she heard about it, without remembering she has fear on it previously.
When we walked towards the indoor playground, Yan already ran towards the Marry-Go-Round, leaving Ern behind chasing her!
Then.........
Ern stopped!! She gave me the"oh, i dare not ride Mummy!" look!!
This was our conversation at that point of time:
Me: Ern, are you sure you want to ride? It will move one!
Ern: Oh, no i don't want
Yan: You come, Ching Ern! You sit behind me. We ride together
Me: Ern, you want to ride together with Yan?
Ern: * she nodded her head and jump up to the horse ride!*
Right after Yan's Mummy inserted the coin, Ern jerk a little bit when the ride started to move. I was prepared to take her down and just let her watch Yan ride it.
I was wrong!!! My little girl finally overcome her fear and enjoyed the ride VERY MUCH!!!
So the next thing I get to see is, both the girls running from one ride to another until we used up the coins!! Of course, we need to coax them to leave the place :-)
It is a breakthrough for Ern. Peer pressure is very powerful!
The next fear that I want to overcome is DENTIST!! Read her dramatic cry here.
