My Son (technically) Broke A Record under Malaysian Book of Records! “Biggest Painting Assembled by Children”

You know you are not that young anymore when you tend to make sentences that begin with  “When I was your age… ” Haha! And here I am about to make another one….

Miki… Miki…. When I was your age, all I did was stay home, watch RTM1 and RTM2, play outside under the trees, read books and imagine, how would it feel if I can experience the same things that happen in the great story books… But you? You have traveled the world and experience so many cool things, just at the age of 6.

Recently when we were in Legoland, Miki participated in an event organised in conjunction with World’s Children Day. If  I were him, I’d like to say that I can strike another item in my list of “Things To Do Before I Die” – which is break a record under the Malaysian Book of Records. How nice is that?

Actually, LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort and Wall’s Paddle Pop were the ones collaborated to break the record for the “Biggest Painting Assembled by Children” under Malaysia Book of Records. They brought children from various orphanages and kindergartens in Johor as well children visitors for the activity. Miki got VIP access because I was on Media pass, hehe!

It was such a happening event and very-very colorful. The kids painted an entire white tile each with any color that they liked and then stamp their hand print on it. I was nervous because Miki was wearing his nice white RL, LOL!

Miki painted his tile blue! And after that he wanted to stamp his hands with green…. A nice crew member assisted him patiently…

Miki also put red dots on his hands… It turned out cute although it looked a bit like a banana frog with chicken pox LOL…. He signed his name at the bottom as well. It seemed to me like we needed to rush… So I told Miki we were done and let’s make way for other kids, else Miki would have decorated his picture with more patterns and words.

But it was still pretty anyway! At the end of the day, congratulations to Legoland and Wall’s Paddle Pop and also all the 725 kids involved, for a giant painting was successfully assembled measuring 12.27m x 7.53m. This broke the previous record of 9.75m x 5.48m! Hooray!

Recently on 12 Dec, Legoland Resort finally unveiled the paintings in a huge wall mural along the walkway to the largest LEGOLAND Water Park in the world. The beautiful mural symbolises a pledge by children to have fun as kids. The painting is made up of individual tiles including the one made by Miki! Cool!!

Mark Germyn, General Manager of LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort said that they were proud of this achievement by the children and were extremely excited to have collaborated with their Resort partner, Wall’s Paddle Pop in this activity dedicated to children. Well, thanks Mark for the opportunity for the children to have a good time at the resort especially to the orphans.

In the afternoon, after the activity was over, Miki was so lucky because the Malaysian Book of Record and Legoland officers were still there with the official certificate so he got to take a pic with it! Awesome! 🙂

But I didn’t take so many pictures of us at the waterpark, mainly because it started to rain while the boys was splashing around…
