Gathering ideas and supplies

I am looking at activities to do with my almost 3 year old.

I am loving the ideas over at http://www.themeasuredmom.com/letter-a-activities/

It looks like I will need to gather my supplies soon:

Here are some recommended stores for those around Damansara area:

1. Star Enterprise - TTDI 


Address: 112 & 114, Jalan Burhanuddin Helmi, Taman Tun Dr Ismail, 60000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

I like to go to this shop for craft supplies - especially when I was teaching. The shop is packed with things- i always find it easier to just ask the shopkeeper where things are instead of finding it myself. They also have sewing supplies corner where you can get felt, sewing items, yarns, threads, and laces. The shop is also known to those searching for wedding items or hamper making materials.

2. Jasema -TTDI
159, 161, & 163, Jalan Aminuddin Baki, Taman Tun Dr Ismail, 60000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

They have more options for papers, as well as home DIY supplies. 

3. Art Friend
Lot 245B, 2nd Floor, 6, The Curve Shopping Mall, Jalan PJU 7/3, Mutiara Damansara, 47800 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia

Art friend is on the same level as Daiso- another option for place to gather supplies. Art friend has an extensive range of paints and craft supplies- lots of good quality stuff but expensive. A friend of mine just brought her child who loves art to just check out various materials, and discuss what kind of markings might different materials produce. Its a great place for browsing and get inspiration.

4. Spotlight Malaysia
Ikano power centre 

Spotlight is next to Popular bookstore. I love Spotlight! So many things for home and avid crafter. From yarns, fabrics, weaving loom, papers, party materials- I also saw some reasonably priced acrylics there. 

5. Seapark sewing shop
There is a mini sewing shop in Seapark (near ss2 Pj) that sells canvas fabric at a good price. It is one row with KFC Seapark- and can be recognised by rattan baskets they hang at the front of the shop. They also have jahit tepi service there.

Will add more places as I come accross them inshaAllah.
