Pearl change CCC...YMCA Metropolitan at Bishan

This decision was made after papa and I went to view several CCCs around Toa Payoh, Serangoon and Bishan. It is not very easy to find a good CCC without air-con nowadays. But for the benefit of Amber, no choice, have to make sure it's non-aircon. This arrangement was also only made possible when my FIL confirmed that he can help to ferry Pearl thru and fro as there's no school bus service available.

The children in the centre all look happy and chatty. And there's lots of programs organised for them. In the month of school holidays like June and December, there's even more activities and outing. Pearl is lucky to join the CCC in June as there's outing to the zoo. Every month, they'll also bring all the children to the Clementi libruary.

I also let her join My Budding Actors, a speech and drama class, where 2 teachers from the speech and drama school will come to their centre to teach on every Tuesday. She also attends My Little Musician, a kinder music class, where they attend at the YMCA Metropolitan headquarters in Stevens road on every Thursday (their ECA day). A chartered bus will ferry them to and back to the centre. This really ease me from having to bring her to too many enrichment classes on weekends and thus leaving Amber with even lesser of my time.

Another thing that Pearl was very excited about is that she gets to have a bottle of vitagen and a pack of strawberry milk once every week. Of coz, I have to pay for that lah. So all in all, the school fees + enrichment classes + vitagen + milk + monthly outings comes up to almost $700 per month. That's more than $200 above her current childcare fees but it's very reasonable. Their teachers also looks very loving and nice. And another thing that I like about this CCC is that they have their breakfast, lunch and tea break in another area designated for this purpose, like a small kitchen and you know what, there's proper chairs and tables for the children (erm, in her current CCC, they actually sits on the cold ceramic floor to have their food and do their work...).

Papa and I feels that we really look dumb, as we bought our new flat for the reason that the kids' CCC is in the same block, but after we moved in less than 2 months, we actually transferred them out and they'll now attend a CCC that's in Bishan. What to do, we just want them to be happy and make sure that the environment where they spend most of their time in is loving and condusive.

Pearl precious, mummy really hope you'll enjoy your new journey in this new CCC...

And here's a peek at her new uniform...she looks so excited looking forward to her new teachers and friends...








FINALLY, decision have been made to change Pearl's current CCC to YMCA metropolitan http://www.mymca.org.sg/childcare/ .

唐诗三百首

Mummy was worried about the way I speak Mandarin in the beginning of this year. However, she said my Mandarin had improved tremendously after I started going to my current childcare centre as most of my friends speaks Mandarin there. But, she was still worried, hence, she started to teach me 唐诗三百首 as that will improve the way I pronounce the chinese words. I like to recite the 唐诗 very much and also bug my mummy to teach me new ones. Every night, after mummy off the light, we will lie down on our bed and starts reciting the 唐诗. Mei mei will fall asleep listening to us reciting it, its like a lullaby to her....kekekeke. I can recite 12 唐诗 now. Mummy had video-ed some of the Tang Shi that I recited...

Finger painting - Insects in the garden



We can't go to the fire station and ExplorerKids today because mei mei is running a fever and mummy eyes r still swollen. So mummy let me try finger painting today. I did this picture with my fingers with the help of mummy. It's a picture of insects in the garden. Mummy says next time we'll do sea creatures.
