Hippo watching tv
Liem got a marvelous toy zoo set for his birthday that he's been playing with every day since he got it. It's got a jigsaw puzzle base, fences, trees, bushes, all sorts of animals, people, even a ticket booth with a turnstile. He kept saying "water" everytime he played with the turnstile and we couldn't work out why until we finally realised that the turnstile looks like a tap. The ticket booth has a small wooden cash register which Liem thinks is a tv. And for some reason, he always arranges the hippo to watch the tv. No idea why.

Bear
Ever since Khiem went to Frankfurt, Liem has been sleeping with a little white bear called "Bear". This means that sometimes he wakes up at night with a wail if Bear has fallen off the cot and Mummy or Daddy has to retrieve Bear so Liem can go back to sleep. During the day Bear sleeps in a bag until it's time for Liem to take him to bed. One of Liem's very first sentences was "Where is the bear?"
