On this Christmas eve, two videos that are good to share with you about presents, puppies, and Christmas spirit
Merry Christmas all
All started with Andy Lee from SengKang Babies. After he discovered the Dragon playground at Ang Mo Kio, he decided to launch the Singpore old playground project by listing all those old playgrounds built in Singapore during the 70′s. I found this is an excellent activity to spend time with your kids while visiting new neighborhoods that you might never have visited before. Andy Lee is not the only one helping those forgotten places to come into the light: Justin Zhuang helped also by creating this very useful map to locate where those vintage playgrounds are hidden…
White as milk is not even a project, it is only an idea. The idea that, as a young father, I was fed up to rush to the supermarket and to waste time buying always the same thing for my kids: milk and nappies. One day, while I was coming back from the supermarket after work, I was imagining a service where I could choose and buy the brand of diapers and baby milk powder that I needed, then me and my family would be delivered every month for the quantity that we would have decided. I would have not to waste time carrying bulky and heavy items. I dug into the concept and I figured out that depending on the buying costs of the baby products, even the delivery fees could be included in the product price, so it would cost me the same price but I would save time, my precious… time…
Now I want to be convinced that this project is doable. I am meeting baby products producers, such as diapers manufacturers or milk powder producers to check if the project is doable. That’s for the offer side. On the demand side, I can’t really figure out if I would be the only one wishing this service or if there are hundreds and hundreds parents in Singapore like me, who would be relieved to avoid thinking to buy those recurring products that our little ones need everyday. As parents, we have better thing to do rather than going to buy products that we don’t need to touch, to feel, to taste before buying…
What do you think of this service? Does it make sense to you? If you are too shy to leave a comment you can always contact me here or on twitter.
Milk is not the only product which is white. There are plenty of them… Let’s list them and feature them when we will find good pictures of them… Let’s start with the first picture of this series called “White As …”

White As Milk is a next to be online shop which will sell baby powder milk and/or diapers in Singapore based on a subscription model (launch is expected in June 2012)
Having said that this blog wants to be a point of contact with parents not only to promote how fantastic it is to be delivered milk and diapers home but also to share tips about the growth and education of our little ones and on a more larger note, life in Singapore (Yes, it is not because babies arrive that we have to stop discovering new restaurants, stop having drink with friends, stop watching movies or stop reading book.
You'll find also on this humble blog, the description of the creation, the development and the mechanics of the life of a family start-up.
