We're really glad that Bryan is quite ok handling himself in a new place or environment. School started on Monday and daddy sent him to school that afternoon. It did take him a couple of minutes to get warmed up all over again but overall, he adjusted quite well. He took the school van home without much fuss in the evening ... so good job Bryan!
The past few days also went well, Mom said. He changed and hopped onto the school van without any fuss and was in ok mood when he comes home in the evening.
We have been really looking forward to the new school hours. Classes start from 12.15 - 4.15 and by the time he reaches home, its almost 5pm. Shower and dinner, then followed by cartoon shows on TV. By 8 or 9pm, he is really really "mabuk" and its a good time to have a warm bottle of milk and while having his "fix", he is already dozing off! What bliss!! To us I mean! He used to only fall asleep past midnight but these few days, he is in bed at 10pm. Im quite glad Mom gets to rest early. And so do we ...
Time really flies .. still remember hunting for a kindy and now Bryan is in his 2nd year in pre-school. I think its time to look into a chinese primary school.

Extended Preschool Hours in 2011
We just got notice from Bryan's kindy that according to the Ministry of Education's new regulations, preschool hours have to be extended by one hour with effect from 2011. Is it the same at your kid's preschool?
Bryan goes to a Montessori kindy and they have 2 sessions a day. I can't recall what time the morning session starts but the second session starts at 11.45am till 2.45pm (so thats 3 hrs). With the new regulation extended to 4 hours, his session for 2011 will start at 12.15pm till 4.15pm!
Actually we are quite excited about this and it kinda fits our requirement better ... hehehe. You know why? Cos right now, our prince wakes up late and of course, to start with, he sleeps late lah. And he does need his afternoon nap. The moment he steps home, he gets changed and will ask for milk. Right after milk, he will automatically doze off in the sofa. So nap time is around 3.30pm till 5.30pm. With the nap in between, nights are torturous for us! We will all be trying to go to bed by 11pm (that's already considered late for me!) and he will still be very hyper with his badminton & tennis racquests asking for game after game!!! Aiyoh!
So with the new timing, our plan is to allow him to wake up late (he can sleep till 10.30am) and then prepare for school. If school finishes at 4.15pm, we reckon he'll reach home around 4.45pm and after a shower and a glass of milk, its time for Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on Channel 613 - hurray!!!! So that means, he wont have a chance to take a nap! And with that, we are hoping that his battery would run out no later than 10pm and then its PEACE for all of us ... woaah! Cant wait to embrace 2011!!!!!

Sit Daddie's Car
Mommie : Bryan want to go school?
Bryan : Go school.
Mommie : Bryan wear new uniform, take new bag, sit Aunty Fong's car, go school ok?
Bryan : Sit Daddie's car
Mommie : Daddie go work. Mommie also go work. Bryan sit Aunty Fong's car, go school ok?
Bryan : No! Sit Daddie's car.
Mommie : Daddie go work wor. Bryan go school ok?
Bryan : Go school, ok.
Mommie : Sit Aunty Fong's car ok?
Bryan : No! Sit Daddie's car!
On one hand, so happy, he dont simply follow other people's car. Sometimes, even my SIL's car, he will bising one, dont want to sit in there, unless I follow him.
Hope this coming Monday would not be a tough session emotionally :-(
