I know this cute little kid from my sister, this child is the daughter of my sister best friend I know my sister best friend very well. The child that I observed for this project named Dinka (that’s what they called her) So I often go to her house to visit Dinka, she’s so active and she can’t even sit properly without doing anything. And I choose to observe her because I know she likes meeting new people, she’s going to be a sister in a couple of months to a baby girl. I have known Dinka since she was just born. My sister best friend brought her to my house a couple of days after she was born. And I fell in love with Dinka since the first time I saw her; she’s so beautiful and so tiny. And after that I always visit their house to play with Dinka, and when she saw me she will run into me and hugging me, and she always kiss my cheek as a greeting and a goodbye. One time I was just leaving their house, and suddenly she started crying and wouldn’t let go of my feet she clinging into my feet very hard for a kid, and she liked it when I played with her hair and tickling her. Home environment and family lifestyle Dinka lives in a double story house in Kemang, South Jakarta. They just moved in to their house like a couple months ago and the house is really nice, and comfy. She has a nanny that lives in the house to help her with anything. And her family is so cute like a little family that always happy and always teaches their kid how to act in front of people and always be nice but even if they didn’t teach her that she always treat everyone the same.

Every weekend her parent’s will bring her out to the mall or the zoo or sometimes meeting her parents’ friends, and they usually go to a play date with her parents’ child. After meeting for a play date usually they go to watch a movie or eat somewhere nice so they can enjoy family time without being disturbed. And sometimes they go out with her grandparents to buy some new toys and new clothes, because she likes to dress up she’s that kind of girly girl kid. Where did you observe this child and under what circumstances?
