This one is for all the Maltese mums, dads & guardians out there!
Sometimes, kids can be a little bit difficult so most parents end up doing these relatable things.
You will definitely relate to the following points if you’re a mum, dad or guardian in Malta.
Playing “The Quiet Game”
Ask any parent what their favourite game is and they will always say ‘The Quiet Game’, and I wonder why?
Uwejjaaaaa
Dealing with that word a million times a day.
Carrying a tablet for emergencies
Panadols aside, we mean these…
Cutting food into tiny little pieces.
Whether the kid is 18 months old or a tween, parents still feel the need to divide dinner into bite-size pieces.
Pretending that everywhere is closed
Don’t feel like going? Ta’ Qali? Closed. l-Għadira? Closed. Tal-Pastizzi? Closed. Maybe tomorrow…
Grab a cardigan, always!
It doesn’t matter if the weather is still warm in Malta, bring a cardigan just in case.
Shouting ‘Ilbes is-seatbelt!’
Before barely getting in the car.
Kissing an injury.
Nothing better than that magical kiss to make that mimmi go away.
Covering their eyes during a kissing scene.
That scene is a big no-no
Dad saying ‘Staqsi lil ommok’ then mum saying ‘staqsi lil missierek’
That’s always confusing…
Which of these are you guilty of?
