Term 2 - Wild Life Theme party

While last time was 'What your baby will be in future', this term the theme was Wild Animals. last Friday was the last day of the term. So the kids get to dress themselves like any of the Wild Animals they like. Achu chose 'Tiger':-)

New words ... no ... terms :)

The other day when Achu was having a play session with me ... He suddenly said this ---> " Amma ... Acha ... Don worry ... U guys rock!" :D

Term 2 begins!

Achu started his term 2 today. For this term, he will be going 4 days a week for the 11AM to 1PM session. I am little worried about the Singapore's hot weather. It's VERY hot he when goes to and comes back from the school. Hope he gets used to the climate in some days. Also from the day he started school, he seem to be ready for the Workgroup activities. Achu is in Playgroup now and it's like pre-nursery. So am little worried that he would be bored at doing the things he already knows. Teacher ready to put him in Workgroup. But Achu who wakes up not earlier than 9 cannot join this group ;) So my plan is to first bring routine for him to wake up early and then put him in playgroup. Hope this works out well by also not affecting his potty training :))

Term End Party

Remember earlier I mentioned that Achu wanted Doctor costume for his First Term end party at school. Well, we had a hard time finding Doctor dress for his age. Poor Achu , we have to finally convince him for a dress which we managed to get. It's a Police Officer dress :) He kind of liked it after seeing it. He enjoyed his party as well :)

Visit to City Square - Candy Ville

Achu has his Term break for 2 weeks. To while away time, we took him today to Little India. First we visited 'Sairam temple' in Kitchener Road. I did not take any photos there. I was not sure whether we can take pictures. First Achu was little excited to see Sai's statute and all the beautiful decorations of it. After the ''Áarthi'' started and since it went on for about 20 minutes, Achu started getting little impatient. So we left the temple even before the Aarthi started.

In order to cheer him up, we took Achu to City Square Mall. They had a Candy Ville set up for their First Anniversary. The moment he entered the mall and saw all the toys and gaming stuffs, Achu was fully back to form. He played there for atleast an hour.

Then we proceeded to Chellas for Lunch. Achu had his favorite, Oothappam. After a some shopping at Little India, it was time to head home :-))

Term End Party

Achu's school had a Term End Party on March 18th. The theme for the party is to dress up like who u want to be i future. I wonder whether a 2.5 year even knows wht it means I was wondering how to dress up Achu for his term end party, he made job easy by choosing the theme on his own. There is a game he plays in my done that shows pictures of people in various types of jobs. I showed every picture and the dress the person was wearing and asked which dress he wants. He replied 'Doctor' :) He sticks to this answer even if asked little later. So my job is made easy ;)

Progress in School

The coming week will be Achu's last week in this term. Time really runs very fast. Cannot believe he has already completed 9 weeks of school. May be our kids grow faster than us ;-)

Next week I might most probably have a PT meeting. I burst into laughter as I type the word PT meeting. While my father/mother accompanying me to my school/collage for PTAs seems like yesterday, here I am about to go for my son's PT meeting :-)) Before I get a list of his progress reports, I thought I shall prepare my own list.

Achu's Progress Report ----> Well this is only for his Social Skills, Public senses and School awareness.

• He knows now clearly that when cross on the roads should always hold my hand.
• He knows the clear definition of School now. A place to "Play"' :-)
• He aware of the things he takes to school. He makes sure that I collect his bag always after school
• He is quiet familiar with travelling in bus. Once up he will find a seat and sits properly. No more jumping, standing etc.,
• He finishes his snacks thats given to school without anyone feeding him

On the whole, am happy that Achu really enjoys going to school :-))
