Certificate

Jamie received this certificate from the trainer at the end of the entire course. The trainer din leave a good impression for herself as she was late for 20mins on the 1st day and subsequent days, she was late for 5-8 mins! Not forgetting that she need to setup the overhead protector too. I spoke to her on 2nd day, wanting to find out what Jamie was taught and was shocked that she doesn't speak well wif occasional singlish in all. Nevertheless, Jamie did learnt something out from it. At least she is more conscious of her poisture, how to sit, walk & pose like a girl.

Christmas Party / Last Day of School

Today is Jeremy last day of school till it re-opens next year January, 5th. I've prepared 5 sets of Santa Claus shower gel gift for all his 5 teachers as an act of appreciation. Indeed Jeremy has shown improvements since he started school early this year. I pray that he will continue to learn effectively at home and in his new school next year.

Children Modelling & Etiquette Workshops

Jamie will be attending 3 days workshop (1.5hr each day) starting from today onwards. Although I have been reminding her about her poisture when she sits, walks and dance during her ballet lessons, I dun seem to see a breakthrough in her effort to do it. Hope she will be able to make conscious effort to maintain good poisture at the end of the workshops.

DancePointe Magical Wonders @ Victoria Theatre

The day has finally arrived! I'm so glad that Jamie had done her best and she had definitely enjoyed performing wif her group of "Mermaids" yesterday ! Her group did 2 shows, 3:30pm Matinee & 7:30pm Gala night show. We arrived 9am+ yesterday and came home almost 11pm. No wonder she was so tired and slept through the night till 1pm today!

Got back Jamie's year end K1 report card from her chinese teacher from Story Island this afternoon. I am very glad that she has made conscious effort in improving herself & there's nothing more I can ask from her at this moment. As a little reward, I took out a newly bought series of chinese story books I've bought from a good fren and gave it to her. Wah! We both love the books! Guess this is one of the ways I can help her to continue to grow to love reading so as to increase her vocabulary and hence converse better in Mandarin.

Thomas the Train

Hey! That's the train I love !!

Rush Hour IQ Game

I love to play wif this ! So fun yet can be frustrating though. And Jamie now starts to get the hang out of it and begins to enjoy playing wif it too. As I was surfing the net about this product, I realised that there's so many benefits of playing such IQ games!
  1. Improves I.Q., memory strength and ability in judgement.
  2. A key in developing children’s IQ.
  3. Strengthen the speed and ability in judgement for the young
  4. Enhances personal memory
  5. Helps prevent Alzheimer’s diease.

Rehearsal

Here, Jamie is having her 1st school wide ballet rehearsal from 7-10pm. Thank God I have volunteered myself so I can take care of her at the same time. Although its tiring, Jamie had enjoyed herself very much especially wif all her ballets kakis.

Happy Birthday Jeremy!

Today Jeremy finally turns 3!! And a friend passed me a corporate card for zoo visit FREE! So I decided to bring them out for an excursion. This time, no animals shows or visit to the Children's Playground except watching few animals feeding sessions instead. We took a slow stroll at our own pace, admiring the animals and guess what? It's the hippotamus that the kids enjoy best!! Why? What else? Madagascar lor!!

Up We Go!!!!

Singapore Flyer, the world’s largest observation wheel. Standing at stunning 165m, the Flyer is the height of a 42-storey building – that’s some 30 metres taller than the famed London Eye. And so, this is Jeremy's 3rd birthday treat of the day after a sumptuous dinner at one of the restaurant located at the Flyer. Magnificent, awesome view !!

Madagascar II (Escape from Africa)

We went for a movie treat to GV Marina this afternoon as one of the birthday treats for Jeremy. It was a wonderful movie experience (comfy armchair w booster seats for the children!) wif a super hilarious engaging movie! Will surely get the DVD once its out!

Birthday Programmes Planned

Due to unforseen circumstances, we decided not to throw a party for Jeremy this year. It's gonna be a simple yet exciting for the children as well as the adults (I suppose so)! Tickets were bought week ago to catch Madagascar II at GV Marina @ 230pm when Jeremy is back from school at 12noon. After which, we will proceed to the Singapore Flyer for a nice dinner and will head to take a 1/2hr ride at the Flyer ! And lastly, we will blow the candles when we are back home.

Reciting the Lyrics

(click on pix)
Today Jamie had a full 2hours rehearsal before the actual performance in about 10days time. I was shocked when I read the lyrics....oh my! Its so challenging for a 5yo child! Not to mention memorising it..

1st Birthday Celebration in School

Today is Jeremy 1st birthday celebration at his school. I've put in alot of effort in it and hopefully will leave him some good memory since he will very unlikely to be able to celebrate in all his future schools since his birthday falls in December.

Today we will be celebrating Jeremy's birthday 4 days in advance at his school. He is so excited to see the blown up Thomas Train foil balloon, those goody bags and the train whistle! Probably will bring them to IMM to watch the Barney Live Show at either 1 or 4pm if they do not want to nap later.

Do-Do & Mi-Mi

This is Jamie's creativity work of her fav soft toy she brougth to the camp. Isn't it cute? At the end of the 3 days Santa Holiday Camp, 3 kids were awarded "Best Creativity" award and Jamie was one of them!! What a great surprise indeed!

Tweedle Wink Program

Jeremy is now on Tweedle Wink after he has outgrown the Wink to Learn program. He simply loves to watch flash cards, be it via TV, computer or I flash to him manually. So I continue till one day he doesn't want it anymore. Whereas Jamie doesn't really like it at her age now although I believe Tweedle Wink will benefit her as well. Shall let her watch it and see her reaction later.
