Video: Baby Shows Right Way To Enjoy Mango & Netizens Couldn't Agree More
Summers usually mean an endless supply of mangoes, and while there may not be a clean way to enjoy the tropical fruit, there's certainly a right way to lose yourself in the sweetness. This video of a baby savoring a ripe mango in pure bliss seemed the ideal way to make it a delightful experience, and netizens couldn't agree more. The little one's messy cleaning up of the stone fruit's pit is the classic approach and possibly the only way to truly enjoy it. A mom documented her baby's adorable mango-eating experience in a viral parenting video, which also serves as a tutorial for viewers on how to enjoy it the right way. It was, without a doubt, one of the greatest moments of Grace Tan's motherhood journey, with her little girl getting the full summer experience. Children are known for their sloppy eating habits, but this kid took it to a whole different level. Moreover, her mom had to prove why the 'mango never stood a chance.' The video showed the first-time mom's point of view while her baby girl delighted in every second of her snacking on the tropical fruit. Somewhat expecting the mess, Tan took all the necessary precautions before handing the little one the gooey mango pit. The clip started with a little spill over the table, but it was only the beginning of the messy experience. As the post continued, the baby made the most satisfying 'nom nom nom nom' sounds, only getting exceedingly dramatic. A mix of 'glug glug' and 'nom nom' sounds, the video captured the little girl's euphoric mango-eating moments, and it's super relatable. She chewed and sucked on it with all her energy and created an even bigger mess until there was no more left to eat. The results? A licked-clean mango pit. Commenters found the baby's way of eating the mango so relatable that they couldn't hold back their hilarious remarks. One user wrote that the 'waababwaabab is necessary, otherwise you don't deserve the mango.' A second individual pointed out that the video was a 'tutorial' on how to eat the fruit until it's clean. The post Video: Baby Shows Right Way To Enjoy Mango & Netizens Couldn't Agree More appeared first on Momtastic.

Arts Picks: Fost Gallery show, dance showcase and opera meets getai at Kreta Ayer People's Theatre
Fost Gallery's 1x1x1 exhibition has a clever gimmick – the works measure no more than 1m in any dimension. PHOTOS: FOST GALLERY 1x1x1 Fost Gallery's 1x1x1 exhibition has a clever gimmick – the works measure no more than 1m in any dimension. This limitation has challenged some of the artists in the show who usually work on a larger scale. Interdisciplinary artist Grace Tan, for example, is better known for her large-scale public artworks such as Woven Field (2015) at Downtown Line's Little India station and Symmetry At Duo (2017). For this show, she has produced a new experimental series of sculptures made from rice and mineral pigments. Other artists have opted for a deconstructed approach. Wyn-Lyn Tan 's patina-on-copper series Particulate – A World Without End I-VI presents six works, each under 1m . But the individual pieces set together form a much larger work. Similarly, Ian Woo's acrylic-on-wood Emotional Things (Slant) with works that stand individually or can be seen as part of a larger whole. Sculptor Ong Si Hui has gone for the other end of the spectrum with meticulously handmade, perfectly symmetrical marble sculptures – the smallest of which is just 3cm in diameter. There will be a second edition of the show, presenting works by different artists, which opens on June 28. Where: 01-02 Gillman Barracks, 1 Lock Road MRT: Labrador Park When: Till June 21, 11am to 7pm, Tuesdays to Saturdays ; by appointment on Sundays, Mondays and public holidays Admission: Free Info: Ascent To The Bamboo Forest Arts Fission Company's artists visited a Vietnamese village for The Barefoot Dancers' Initiative.

Dance artists visited Sai Duan village in north Vietnam under The Barefoot Dancers' Initiative project, immersing themselves in a different rural environment. The idea behind the project is to allow dancers to experience the changing rural landscapes of Asia and tap the experiences to enrich their dance work. Under its auspices, dancers have also visited Indonesia and Thailand. The dancers will share their stories about their stay in village houses with squat toilets and raw earth floors, as well as close encounters with majestic mist-shrouded mountains during a hike through the village's sacred bamboo grove.
