There's a lot of hands on activities as well as art work for the PG1 children. We get a lot of craft work home at the end of each term. While waiting to bring Sarah home, there're lots of songs and dance too. Sarah sure looks forward to school each day..
Term 1 at CH was relatively short, consisting of only 4 weeks of school. Once home from school, the chatterbox goes talking and yakking non-stop. Good things we've seen since starting CH, Sarah has started singing more mandarin songs and speaking several more mandarin words (with an ang-mor slang though haha); its quite an achievement for our lil' potato-head who has always resisted Chinese. She's even more independant then before, and willing to try new things and food (at home she still prefers plain bread while she dares to try sandwiches and kaya bread etc in school). The influence of friends is great. She's learnt a great deal of bad habits such as whining (200% whinier than before), lying on the floor, biting her nails, putting her hands in her mouth, and biting her toys. What to do.. we can't keep her at home forever =S
Miss Ng is nice and always takes photos of the children to show the parents. She also makes an effort to update us almost daily on Sarah nap times and meals through the communication booklet :)
We've got so many different brands of carriers at home, but none that mummy knows how to use without breaking a sweat or twisting an arm/leg. Finally the latest purchase is idiot-proof enough for mummy to master in under 10 seconds. Next training on the agenda is to get Ben used to being inside this!
May is the month of birthdays in our family. Grandpa, grandma and Sarah are May babies. Had a nice dinner at a quiet restaurant last week. Where's Ben? He fell asleep in his maxi-cosi carseat whilst listening to the jazz band playing in the background..
Aunty's way of putting Ben to sleep..
Happy Ben watching TV.. Hmmm
Still prefers his fingers to the rattle.. sigh
She keeps singing "Old MacDonald had a farm" when she sees Mr MacDonald.. *muahaahaa*
It's mummy's 3rd Mother's Day.. Received a personalised handbag from Sarah :)
