Dear Mommy and Daddy,

Teacher Deborah taught me to recognize rhythm by clapping my hands and using different musical instruments. There are different shapes and sizes of drums in my class. I’ve tried using one and two sticks, and even my own hands to beat on its surface. I like to make rhythm with a drum when listening to a song.

I’m a naturalist. I planted some beans in a plastic container last week and they became new plants. I made new discovery whenever I went outdoor. I’ve discovered a new way to draw on the sand with a stick. My friend saw a green bud between some branches and shouted, “Look, (new) plant!”

Teacher Deborah read to us a book entitled, “My Flower”. I enjoyed this book so much that I want to read it over and over again. I love to say my line, “Go away, (name of animal). This is my flower.” said the butterfly. I learned that butterflies like flowers.

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

Last two weeks was filled with fun activities. Teacher Deborah taught me how to make Flower biscuits. They looked so pretty but I ate them; it’s yummy! My favorite activity was blowing bubbles. I also enjoyed bubble painting! I’ve learnt about opposites – I can see ‘Big’ bubbles and ‘Little’ bubbles on my paper.
Now I know the names of many flowers - Sunflower, Tulip, Dandelion, Raffleshia, Bird of Paradise, etc. The latest addition to my vocabulary of flower is Orchid. Teacher Deborah brought different types of Orchid to show us. When I look closer, they look like insects!
Did you like the surprise gift last Friday? I’ve painted the pot and gift wrapper and especially picked the dried roses for mummy. What about making rose tea together?

I'm 3 years old and I have 3 birthday cakes this year. One is for my friends in school (Power Rangers cake from Polar, second (Bob Builder from Polar) is to celebrate at home and last one (Soccer Cake from Prima Deli) is for my birthday party (1st May).

First time celebrated my birthday at school. Had my friends to sing birthday song. Mummy will download the videoclip here when she is free.... keke

Mummy and papa checked in the chalet in the afternoon. After dinner, we had a mini celebration at home with "yeye".

2nd birthday cake from polar

Left the house after we had the cake. Reached chalet around 11pm. papa took his bath while I watched VCD and drank milk.

Then papa drove us to Downtown east. When we drove past the Ferris Wheel, there was neon lights. But when we reached there, the neon lights were off only left the buiding neon lights. Look around what was inside at the downtown east. And when to mc cafe for drinks. I was sleepy and mummy patted me to sleep.

1st May 2008

Woke up saw papa having instant noodles. So I also had some. Also had another round of breakfast at mac with gugu. It was very crowded. But luckily we managed to find seats. Went to the orchid bowl. There was a mini bowl alley. Initially I wanted to play, but when is my turn, didnt really want to play but because mummy has already put in the coins, gugu played. Went for lunch at Burger King. It was long queue again. While waiting for papa to buy the lunch, fall asleep while drinking milk. And while walking back to the chalet, I woke up. "po po", "gong gong", "yiyi" and uncle vincent came not long after papa went back home to fetch "yeye", "meimei" and aunty meimei.

The Kids Bowling Lane - S$2 for 5 games.

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

I like to read about seeds, plants and flowers. My favorite book is “The Tiny Seed” by Eric Carle. I have just made a little flower that looks like cup cakes with chocolate chips in the middle. Oops…I’ve just realized I can’t eat it! I like to be a little Einstein and play with food coloring. Wow, my white flower has just turned into yellow, blue, pink or green flower!

I’m so excited that my seeds have just sprouted into tiny plants! Teacher Deborah has been reminding me to water my plant every other day. I’m still waiting to see a flower bud. I like to pretend to be a farmer and sing the song, “The Farmer”. Won’t you like to sing with me?

Appendix 1
The Farmer
Sing to tune: "The Farmer In The Dell"The farmer plants the seedsThe Farmer plants the seedsHi, Ho and Cheery OThe farmer plants the seeds.
(Use the following verses.)The sun begins to shineThe rain begins to fallThe plants begin to growThe flowers smile at us

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

This week, Teacher Deborah taught us a new song “Flowers” (Appendix 1). I like to pretend to be like little flowers. I’m so happy that I can make purple by mixing blue and pink play-dough together. Teacher Deborah painted my hand with four different colors of paint. Wow, I just made rainbow colored flowers!

I like to become a little gardener. Teacher gave me a little pot and some tiny seeds. I scooped some soil into the pot; then, I sprinkled some seeds, and then, I covered it with more soil. Finally, I watered the seeds. I can’t wait to see my seeds sprout into a little plant! Teacher Deborah taught me to take care of my plant by watering it everyday. I’m so happy that my classroom is turning into a garden soon.

Appendix 1
Flowers
Sing to tune: "Sing a Song of Sixpence"Sing a song of flowers, flowers all around.Flowers that are growing, growing in the ground.Flowers of each color make a pretty view.Red and orange and yellow, And blue and purple too.

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

This week, Teacher Deborah brought us many books about flowers. I liked this book, “Sunflower”. Teacher Deborah taught us how to make sunflowers this week. She showed us the sunflower seeds and two sunflowers. The sunflower seeds are so tiny but the sunflowers are so big. I tried tasting the seeds; it’s delicious when it’s baked with butter or honey. We learned a rhyme about flowers. I like to pretend to be little seeds that grow into a sunflower plant.

Teacher Deborah and Tsai Lao Shi took us to the garden nearby. I saw several different colors of flowers. I also saw butterflies. After my visit to the garden, I know flowers have different shapes and colors. I notice one flower that looks like a ball; some look like little umbrellas and others look like little bells.

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

I’m so glad Teacher Deborah returned to school after the second days as she was sick. She instructed me to drink more water when the weather is hot. She would reward me with a smiley face sticker whenever I finished half my bottle of water. I know how much water I’ve drunk when my bottle is filled with stickers.

I love to read this book in my class about shapes and colors. I’ve also learned that I can make shapes with sticks; my dog’s house has a large triangle and square shapes. I’m so happy that my puppy has a little house for himself! Please help me paint my little house as I didn’t get the time to paint it.

We’ve a dog’s race and it was so fun! In the race, she mentioned three important words, “ready; get set; go!” But I heard the word “Go”, I was already crawling towards the finishing line as I was so eager to collect “Dog’s bones”.

2008-03-14T23:16:00.000+08:00

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

I had a fun week! Teacher Deborah painted my face and dressed me up like a puppy. I love to look at myself in the mirror and see a little dog grinning at me. I have my very own “bone” with my personal name. I hid my bone under a pile of “mud”, and then, looked for it by digging with my hands. I also played a game called “Dogs and Bones”. When teacher Deborah called my name, I would crawl slowly to pick up a “bone”. I have also learned to dance with a new rhyme that teacher Deborah taught me, “A Poodle in a Fuddle”. Mommy and Daddy, shall we dance together?
(Children stand in a circle, look from left to right )
A poodle in a fuddle
In the middle of a puddle! (step left)
Will he wade to the left? (step right)
Will he wade to the right? (step into the middle)
Will he stay in the middle? (Point up to the sun)
Till the sun shines bright? (Hold hands over head to form sun)
When the sun shines bright, (Crisscross arms and move one left, one right)
Will the puddle disappear? (Point to floor in front where standing)
Will the poodle in the middle
(Cup hands to mouth and say this louder, as though cheering)
Give a great, big cheer?

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

This week, I drew my own puppy on a big mural together with my friends. I can recognize my own puppy as I painted its paws with my own hands and feet. I’m always amazed to see different shades of brown when teacher Deborah mixed the three paints together – red, yellow and blue. I like to count – my dog has four paws.

I love to bring my puppies around the classroom in a wooden push cart. Teacher Deborah taught us a new rhyme with finger plays. It’s so fun to play with my little fingers...they can run so fast. Would you like to learn this rhyme with me too?

Two little puppy dogs
(hold up two fingers)
Lying in a heap,
(let two fingers fall down.)
Soft and Woolly
(pet two fingers with opposite hand.)
And fast asleep.
(lay hands against the side of your face and close eyes.)
Along came a pussycat
(hold up one finger from opposite hand and move toward the two little fingers.)
Creeping near,
"Meow", She cried right in their ear.
Two little puppy dogs
(hold up two fingers)
After one cat,
(two fingers chase the one finger).
Did you ever play tag like that?
(point to the children)

Going out everyday

2008-03-06T23:26:00.000+08:00

Mom: Have been bringing Fred out for the past 2 days.

Tuesday, I brought him to IMM. We took MRT to Jurong East and took the IMM Shutter Bus. We walked around and I bought some clothes from Giordano as I will be going back to work on Monday. Times flies. I have been resting for almost 3 mths. Then we bought Burger King back for dinner. Fred didnt want to take cab home so in the end we took Shutter bus back to Jurong East. Because Fred likes to take MRT, we took the MRT to Boon Lay and from there back to home. But the travel still not enough. In the end, he made noise at the Buona Vista MRT platform.

Wednesday, I brought him to meet my friend for dinner at Jurong West Sakae Sushi. Fred took half a bowl of rice with miso soup. Took MRT back home. And history repeats again... sigh...

Today, brought him to Orchard as there is a baby fair going on. He saw the Thomas Train Pyjamas. Since he didnt have one, so I bought for him. Also bought a dress for Felicia. We took KFC for dinner. He ate chicken and whipped potato. When we were at the talking hall at Takashimaya, he saw the fire engine. He insisted to buy so I no choice have to buy for him.. Because he still wan me to carry, in the end we took cab home...

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

This week, we had fun singing the Kitty song with all my friends. I wonder if mommy and daddy can sing the song together with me. It goes like this, “I have a cat; she’s very shy; When she comes, I call her Kitty; KITTY; KITTY; KITTY and Kitty is her name O.”

I learnt about triangle shapes as Teacher Deborah taught me how to make a cat hand puppet, using a brown paper bag, two round buttons and lots of triangles. I’ve used two triangles as my kitten’s ears; two buttons as my kitten’s eyes; black strips of paper as my kitten’s whiskers. I’ve dressed my kitten with woolen threads and orange stripes.

I’m so happy to create a model of my dream train. Alas, Teacher Deborah taught us how to glue together some wooden sticks to make our own train tracks. Finally, we put all our train coaches together onto the train tracks. Now, I need to make the train move but I need some help. I wonder if daddy or mummy can offer me some bright ideas.

Wow...

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

I’m so glad to be back to my school routine after a long holiday! Teacher Deborah brought us lots of new storybooks about cats and kittens. She also brought a kitten toy and some mittens for us. How I wish it’s a real kitten so I can play with it!

Teacher Deborah taught us a new rhyme, “Three Little Kittens”. She told us that the kittens are baby cats. They not only like to play with mittens but also pom-pom balls! I like to guess and name the colours of the pom-pom balls. I also like to touch and play with them. Teacher Deborah taught us how to paint using pom-pom balls. It’s so fun to have paint all over my hands! I’m so amazed that I can create brown using blue, red and orange!

I’ve also been busy working on a new project this week. Teacher Deborah taught us how to use acrylic paint. I chose my favorite paints to work on my masterpiece and I’m proud to draw my own face. Please take a look when you pick me up from class next week.

Teacher Deborah and Tsai Lao Shi brought us to see the railway line nearby the Little Skool-House. I sat on the overhead bridge and drew my favorite railway lines with my favorite crayons. Teacher Deborah asked us, “Where is the train going?” One boy said, “To Malaysia”. Thumbs up for Frederick; he listened to Teacher Deborah when she told us about the train’s journey.

First Day of CNY

2008-02-07T22:57:00.001+08:00

Alot of ppl were already there. As usual, I got myself many ang baos... After "tai-ma"'s house, we went to grandma's house. We stayed there till around 6.00pm and went back home for dinner with "yeye". After dinner, we went to TMC to see Baby Geraldine. She was born yesterday noon.

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

This week, I had lots of fun activities! Teacher Deborah brought in lots of marbles. She showed us how to paint with marbles. I liked to see the marbles rolling here and there in the tray when I tilted it front and back and sideways. I was just amazed that marbles can make train tracks so easily. I also had fun exploring with different sizes of round loops. I liked to throw the loops into a pole and watched them go down, down down. Teacher Deborah also taught me how to print circles using these loops by dipping them in pink paint. Oh, I loved to see pink circles!
Chai Lao Shi helped us designed a train using twigs, leaves and seeds that we picked up under the trees. Teacher Deborah taught us a song about Little Red Caboose...I like it when the music goes so fast...”Little red caboose, chuck, chuck, chuck...little red caboose behind the train, train, train...” Finally, I’m so happy that I can have my own choo-choo train...Now, I painted it with my favorite color...When you dropped in next time, take a look at my choo-choo train...But I liked my train to have more coaches, can you help me find more tissue boxes, please? Thank-you. That’s one word I liked to use when I asked for help.

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

This week I learned about space and how big our playground when we running around like an airplane. I also like to know how long the basketball court is when we raced across the court from one end to the other. I started running even before Chai Lao Zhi had finished counting, “yi, er, san”.

When we are outdoor, I loved to use my sense of sight. I usually liked to look at the clock tower, the highest point of Ulu Pandan C.C. Teacher Deborah would tell us the time, “It’s ten o’clock now.” I also loved to look at the clear blue sky and the white cloud moving above us slowly. I also loved to use my sense of hearing. I usually keep my ears wide open to hear the sound of airplanes. Teacher Deborah said, “Look, what’s that in the sky?” One boy said, “HELICOPTER!” All of us started waving and shouting at the top of our voice - “Hi, Hi, We’re here!”.... “Bye-bye”.

I liked to use my hands to pick up little objects and glued them onto a piece of paper. Teacher Deborah measured my face with a piece of woolen thread. Then she cut it and laid it out like a circle. I’ve great imagination...“I’ve pasted two straw pieces as my eyes; two curved macaronis as my ears; a stick as my nose and a leaf as my mouth.” “Walla, I’ve a face and I loved it, even though, it might not be quite like me!”
I felt good when I drew and wrote on the big space called “Free Expression” whenever and however I wanted it. One boy said, “I draw my mummy!”

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

I had a fun week with lots of different activities. I celebrated my friend, Iman’s birthday from toddlers’ class. We put on our favorite masks and party hats as we always do when we go to a party. We played a balloon that was going up in the air and touched the ceiling; we are so happy to receive a goody bag from Iman.

I liked to sing the song, “Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun, please shine down on me, Mr. Sun, Sun, please come out and play with me.” when we are outdoor at the playground. Teacher Deborah pointed out to us, “Look, your shadow is following you. I liked to chase after my own shadow and stepped on the shadows as they moved in front of us. When teacher Deborah rolled the Hula Loops like a wheel, I loved to chase after it and catch it before it fell to the ground.

Frederick, my friend, shared his toy trains with us. I watched the train moving along the track; it passed through a bridge, then, through a tunnel, and finally arrived at a train station. I loved to sing this song, “Down by the station, early in the morning, sees the puffer bellies all in a row...” Teacher Deborah read for us a story book about “Thomas and His friends”. We loved it so much and one boy said, “Can you read again?”

We had a fun cooking lesson with teacher Deborah. We made a long train with many coaches and wheels. Teacher Deborah gave me a big slice of bread and I painted my coach with my favorite jam. Our coaches have many colors. Finally, teacher Deborah gave us some round crackers and we placed many wheels on the coaches. We are so happy to see our long train when it was done. I liked the part when teacher Deborah put my own coach and wheels on a plate; “It’s yummy!”

Teacher Deborah brought us to a garden. We spotted many snails in the garden especially after the rain; some were hanging under the leaves and some were climbing up the stem. We saw many snail shells lying on the ground but they were not moving. So we picked them up one by one and placed them in a little basket. Teacher Deborah put them in a bucket of water and we saw them floating up on the water but we didn’t find any snail!

The First 3 Days At Little Skool House

2008-01-13T18:46:00.000+08:00

Daddy just received an email from teacher Deborah. This is what she wrote:

<<2nd>>
On the first day of school, teacher Deborah welcomed me and introduced me to a few new friends. Then we played different kinds of fun and creative activities in the classroom. We took a tour round the school and saw other friends’ classrooms. Teacher Deborah gave us different colours of home-made play dough. We loved to use our hands to create our favorite food such as hot-dog, curry-puff, etc. by rolling, pressing and cutting shapes.

<<3rd>>
On the second day of school - one boy picked up a book about train and teacher Deborah read for us. We just loved singing this song, “Puffer train, puffer train, noisy little puffer train...” when going to the toilet. We enjoyed singing nursery rhymes.

<<4th>>
On the third day of school, we had a jolly good time with an outdoor activity. We jumped from one hula loop to the next, chased and kicked balls in an enclosed compound. Parents also joined us in the fun. Teacher Deborah as the goal keeper who discovered we just love to score goals like “Fandi”. One child said, “I am so HAPPY.” Whenever we completed a picture puzzle, teacher Deborah congratulated us with a “Hi 5” clap.

Updates from Teacher Deborah (Week 2)

2008-01-11T20:42:00.000+08:00

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

This week, I had a wonderful time with my friends at school. I was exploring my favorite play-dough, making a birthday cake for teacher Deborah. We sang her a Birthday song. Then we took our turn to blow the candles from Teacher Deborah’s fingers.

After lunch, I liked to measure my weight and my height everyday. It was fun to see the needle moving as I stood on the weighing machine and teacher Deborah would read out my weight to me. I wish I could grow taller so that I could run my finger up to touch the Giant’s castle at the top of the chart. It was fun to run my finger down quickly so that the giant can’t catch me. I learn about opposite words such as “up” and “down” this week.

I like to explore a new toy called the pounding balls rack. I was so curious to see the balls sliding down as I hit the ball with a wooden hammer. The little ball went through the hole and sliding down and before I knew it, it was already at the bottom of the rack. But teacher Deborah taught me to share this toy with my friends, and so, I learned to take turn to play this toy.

I learned better when I sang and danced in class; I pretended to brush our teeth, and after that, I showed off my clean white teeth with my wide-opened mouth. I also like to wear masks and pretended to be a flower girl, and sometimes, a princess or an octopus. I also liked to explore with coloured paints; teacher Deborah told me that I had just made purple when I mixed red and blue paints together.

Mummy and daddy checked in the chalet in the afternoon while I was taking my afternoon nap at home. Around 4pm, they reached home. "Gugu" was with them. Daddy decided to bring me to National Stadium to watch soccer match. We reached stadium around 7+pm. We watched the game till 10+.. Singapore won.. 2-0. Then we went to a "Cha Cang Ting" at East Coast Park. The place is not crowded but the serving is very slow. We waited for almost an hr for the food. It rained when we were having the supper. Luckily my bag has an umbrella. "Gugu" carried me and we quickly walked back to the car. Then we proceeded to our chalet....

<<10th>>
All of us woke up around 9+am. Reached Wild Wild Wet around 10.30am. It was quite crowded. First time exposure to this type of environment. But I enjoyed myself alot. We were there till lunch time. Mummy bought a Hawaiian pizza for me as I was very hungry while waiting for daddy and "gugu". Daddy didnt want to eat pizza so the adults had their lunch at the food court. After lunch, we proceeded back to the chalet, I took my milk and I fell asleep shortly. Daddy went back home to fetch "yeye" and also helped to bring the BBQ foods here.
While mummy and "gugu" setup the fire for the BBQ. I helped abit by faning the fire. HAHA...

There wasnt any queue compared to those in Singapore. haha... After my nap, we walked to the nearby MRT station to take MRT. And then BTS to Central Mall. The shopping center was very big.

Initally the adults have planned to go to Aunty Pauline's house for a swim but because I slept till 5pm, and it was abit late to go for a swim and dinner. So mummy told Aunty Pauline we would meet her and Gwendolyn JieJie at Vivo City Level 3 instead. I have not been there for quite some times. Either daddy or mummy is busy with their studies. Now they are all free from studies. So they have more time for me. I played for quite awhile and JieJie joined me. Around 7pm, we went for dinner at Hog's Breath Cafe. Half way thru the dinner, I fell down from the bench and cut my both inner and outer lower lip. Alot of blood came out from my mouth and scared mummy to death. Aunty Pauline quickly called Dr. John telling him the accident and guided us on how to stop the blood. Finally the blood stopped. We quickly left the cafe and to see Dr. John. Dr John said nothing serious and gave me cream for the inner wound on the lip and antibotics. And for the outer wound, he gel it to stop blood.

I'm all READY to go...
