First Visit to Tugu Peringatan Negara Malaysia

After planned for almost five months, finally we realized our 2D1N Holidays in KL. Luckily Hubby did not last minute told us he couldn’t make it. So glad that he managed to arrange his time for this. Besides choosing which hotel to stay in and made the reservations as early as in March, nothing else was in planned.

On that morning, we got ready ourselves by 11am. Looking at the time was still a bit early for checking-in to the hotel so we drove our way to the Tugu Peringatan Negara Malaysia. It is located on the way to KL. Very convenient and we just stopped by for a short walk. This was our boys' first experience to this tourist spot. I was here twenty-over years ago when I was still a small girl. And now I am back here with my kids. 

Kimi said he learnt this place in his school before. I was surprised! He shouted to me and said: It’s Malaysia!

Nothing much to do there besides letting Kimi knew who were those soldiers with guns. Walked around together with other tourists (non-Malaysian) and made us looked like one of them too! Hehe…. Cuti-Cuti 1Malaysia sounds good too!

The Westin® KL Kids Club

Holidays with kids aren’t easy nowadays. A lot of things need to consider. The hotel that we choose to stay in, the facilities they offer, the surroundings and food selections. Both our boys are toddlers now. No longer the little babies whom we need to think of besides milk, what else they can eat during holidays besides bread (if porridge or cereal is a hard-to-come-by food at that time).

This year’s Hari Raya holidays in Malaysia were a long weekend. We had two days of public holidays and two days from weekends to make it a long one. We had decided not to travel outstation (to avoid terrible traffic jams on the road). So we had pre-arranged PIL to send Nico to KL for us so that he could spend his long weekend with us too.

We opted for a 2D1N 'Cuti-Cuti 1Malaysia' and stayed at The Westin KL. We took up their Weekend Package so that our boys can enjoy their time at the Westin® Kids Club to the fullest! This package comes with one hour of complimentary usage in the Kids Club. A Wonderful Family Weekend Getaway in this Family-friendly Hotel within close proximity of the shopping haven. We spent our time walking around KL leisurely.

The Boys enjoyed their time; the Daddy enjoyed his relaxing days and I enjoyed my Shopping… This “3 IN 1” holiday package was really a good and relaxing one for all!

@ The Westin® Kids Club -

The Kids Club is catered for children aged between 2-12 years old. All activities are supervised, although parents can stay if they wish. But Hubby and I left Kimi and Nico there to have their own FUN time so that we could spend some quality time together for both of us.

Playtime includes arts and crafts, such as making a picture frame, origami, sail boat-making, and coloring. The club offers a brightly colored, immaculate environment and includes an indoor playground, a place for watching movies, and a PlayStation to play with. My Boys really enjoyed their time so much in it!

Fees are RM20 nett for the first hour and RM15 nett for every subsequent hour.

This place is really my Boys’ Paradise! And I think they totally forgot about their Papa & Mummy... When we went to pick them up after a couple of hours, they told us: I don't want! And the next day, they requested to go again! Haha… Both of them really know how to make full use of the Kids Club! Well, not a bad thing though, at least their Papa’s money was well spent off there.
