Lycia Attending Playgroup

Mummy have been researching for Lycia pre-school since she is 18mths old.
We have went down to a few CC to recce but none can meet mummy criteria which is near, good and cheap! :)

Finally chance upon a tuition centre which has 2hr playgroup just one block away from our hse.. mummy was so happy as it is near and convenient so our dear Lycia and Mother-in-law no need to be under the rain or shine or cross the road.

The playgroup only accept toddlers from 2 years old onwards but Mrs Loh the Director of The Learning Petals Educare was kind enough to let Lycia go for a trial class then decide if she is suitable for it.

Lycia started her trial class on 22nd May, she is only 21mth old then. I find that the class was small so can cater to look out for her and the syallabus was not bad also the usual singing, dancing, learning ABC, doing art and craft etc.. the centre still provide some snacks for the kids so it was really good!

So Lycia finaly started her 1st school on the 17th June, she is only 22 mth plus then. The 2hrs play group starts from 10.30am-12.45pm.. so we have to let her have more breakfast before she goes to school as she normally have her lunch ard 11plus am when she is at home.

As expected Lycia cries in clas when she cannot see familiar face of me or MIL around. Teacher have to carry her but after 30mins - 1hr or so she will stop crying and participate a little.

Hopefully Lycia will be able to adapt to this schedule soon so mummy wouldnt see her cry for too long.. Gambateh Lycia.. you can do it!!!!!

Desaru Trip 5th-6th June 2009

We went for 2D/1N Desaru short trip one day after our 7th year anniversary.
Lycia was 22mth old on 6th June! :)

The trip was confirmed just one week ago after we managed to booked our Delux Sea View Hotel with The Pulai Desaru. The hotel although was quite old but the view was great.. from our balcony we can see the high or low tide of the not so clean beach and can hear the sea wave. :)

The plus point of the hotel is they have a kids room with all the little tikes slides and playhouse so our little princess Lycia can enoy herself there.. the pool was not bad also and we went for swimming twice with the new car float which we bought for her.. surprisingly Lycia enjoys her swim which she don't really like in S'pore leh.. any different???? Hahah
