While wandering around the Singapore Philatelic Museum, Aunty decided to take a little walk into the Sheep Room.
Baa baa! Looks like the sheep and goats were waiting to welcome their next visitor. Come, let's see what these woolly friends have in store!
One Sheep… Two Sheep… Three Sheep…
Aunty: “One sheep, two sheep, three sheep… wah, how many more?”
Sheep: “Keep counting, Aunty! But watch your steps, don't fall asleep!”
Little sheep silhouettes decorated the staircase walls, leading visitors towards the Sheep Room. What a playful way to begin the visit — although counting sheep usually sends Aunty straight to dreamland!
A Sheep Written in Brushstrokes
Aunty: “Wah, Mr Sheep! You've become a Chinese character on a Japanese stamp!”
įž: “Of course, Aunty! I'm famous internationally!”
The character įž, meaning sheep, took centre stage in this interactive display inspired by a Japanese postage stamp. Visitors could try tracing its strokes and discover how a simple character could become a little work of art.
Counting Sheep, Dreaming Goats… Where's the Bed?
Aunty: “Count sheep, dream of goats… okay! But where's the sleeping area?”
Sheep: “Aiyoh, Aunty! This is an exhibition, not a hotel!”
Above us hung a cheerful sign reading Counting Sheep, Dreaming Goats, surrounded by playful farm-themed decorations. Such a dreamy welcome — although Aunty was still looking for somewhere to lie down!
Bed? Bed? Where Are You?
Aunty: “Hello! I've counted the sheep already. Where's my bed?”
Sheep: “Aunty! Those are exhibition tables, not bedside tables lah!”
The cheerful room was filled with colourful displays, sheep-themed pictures and playful decorations. Plenty to explore, but not a single bed in sight. Looks like Aunty would have to do her dreaming while standing up!
An Apple Tree with a Colourful Hairdo!
Aunty: “Hello, Mr Tree! Wah, so many apples! Can pluck one?”
Apple Tree: “Can look, cannot eat lah, Aunty! I'm only a picture!”
Hehehe! At least this time the tree won't need to see a doctor!
Baa Baa… Who Ate All the Apples?
Aunty: “OI! Were you the one who ate all the apples from that tree?”
Goat: “Baa baa! I ate apples hor! See, they're all inside my tummy!”
Aunty found a rather unusual goat with a see-through tummy full of fruits! No need to guess what this fellow had for lunch — the evidence was right there for everyone to see.
Sheep Selfies Around the World!
Aunty: “Wah! You all so famous ah? Even got your own postage stamps!”
Sheep: “Of course lah, Aunty! We're international celebrities, you know!”
From woolly sheep to handsome goats, these colourful stamps featured animals from different parts of the world. Aunty didn't need a passport to meet these four-legged celebrities!
Imagine the sheep asking for payment after you photograph them.
Sheep: “One photo, one bag of apples!”
HAHAHAHA! Better hide the apple tree! đ
