<font color="0000ff">Gymboree Playgym @ Serangoon Garden</font>
Sometimes we all need motivation to bring the tods for activities. And I think going for regular playgym is good in the sense that we can meet and chit-chat (a bit) and there is commitment so we would most likely make it. Otherwise for me, today sky a bit dark, today a bit tired and didn't go liao.
Sat
At the moment only 1-2pm, 2-3pm & 6-7pm.
No other available slots - all filled with classes, unless any classes are cancelled last minute, which we would only know 1-2hrs before the class.
Sun
At the moment only 6-7pm. But they are able to open 5-6pm for playgym coz there is no active class for the time-being. Looks like this is the nearest we can get so that tods get to nap before playgym.
<font color="119911">Frequency: Weekly or Biweekly (every 2 weeks - so we get to use new setup everytime - they change every 2 weeks)
Bus service: Gymboree can provide bus at $3 (return) for 1 adult + 1 tod. But because they don't operate the bus on weekends, we have to specially arrange 3-4 days in advance if we want.
Mummies interested, please state your preference of frequency & time slot and I co-ordinate.
Members at $8 and non-members are welcome to join in at $15 per session.</font>

tang ling,
thanks for photos! Going to print them out using the canon printer. K was in the 'high' mode yesterday, that's y u saw her laughing and shouting. She's supposed to be napping or sleepy but guesss she's overly stimulated. In the cab, she straight away K.O. must be super tired.
i like the gymboree set up. very colourful and vibrant. But I can't commit to regular PG cos we have family gatherings on and off. BUt I will join whenever possible cos K enjoyed it.

mummies,
it just strike me that Feb 10 is close to Vday too !!!! keke.... so we can celebrate Vday as well... then can get the little tods to make Vday cards for mummy and daddy ... hee hee...
thinking along the line of paper plate, cut red heart, stick, punch hole, string thru, write some words, etc, etc ....
good idea ?
but as experience shows, we'll most likely be the one doing 90% of the activity...haha

Hi Mummies,
We are trying to book a room for the PG, but not available on 10 Feb 4pm.
We could either have the PG 12-4pm (on 10 Feb) or some kind Mummy could volunteer her place so that we could have a more flexible timing?
Anyone?

Aiyah, should have consulted our "Spree Queen" first. So the measurement chart is not reliable wan? I bot a pair of dress shoes for him but i think he can stuff both his hand and foot in it and still got allowance.
Me no problem with J-shopper or The Children's Place leh.

Shane, great idea on the angbao craft work but chances are they will be tearing them up rather than sticking them together!

crafts:
my concern is it'll not be very nice on the host's furniture when these kids start to run around with pens and crayons or draw out of the range. unless PG is held in function rooms.

shane,
yesterday i walked past Macdonald and suddenly thought of celebrating the june bday bash there. It's priced at $7 per kid, min 15. They also have a host to play games. maybe we can consider that when the date is nearer.
Btw, u interested to bring E for julia gabriel weekend classes? I'm thinking of bringing K for weekend enrichment. Then maybe we can go together. Who else in our thread is attending? is it cherry or kiami? can advise on the rates?

When you travel along Bukit Timah in direction going towards Woodlands, you turn left into Evans Road.
within the next 100m, on your left is the old SMU, on your right is old bungalow which says Evans Lodge. JG is located in Evans Lodge.
If you miss it, you''ll come to the Prata Shop that's open 24 hours on your left.
Shane
parking is free!
but many many cars. i think hb may have to park along the road illegally.

twinklets,
u already sign up to be on waiting list?
Evans road got parking lots for parents?
actually i tot put her in cc then can save a bit but i thought about it and felt it's better to enrich her as to her now, it's just play. when they get older, they'll then feel the difference of learning or playing and may resist for extra lessons if we sign them up later.

shane,
my preference is on Sat and preferably at Forum. But since like that, I must seriously consider which one. IF evan road is not too much of trouble when it comes to parking, maybe I'll go evan one.
mckee,
evan road JG is airconditioned?

JG cost more than GUG, and nicole is not there... hehe... so i can't tell you more info!
I've frens there, they did mention that the transition from Eng to CL periods, got big lag time. so you feel your $$ going as time passes.
other than that, they are happy with the classes.
When I did a comparison with them, the way they teach phonics is different from GUG. And it's my personal preference why I preferred GUG.

Wow, v-day theme. Hahah... we force our kids to make us a card, but true that we will end up doing the card ourselves.

I like to have parties at Mac!
But hor, I confirm cannot join because still kena confined at home.

Seems like most mummies are signing up the tods for the more expensive classes. At the moment, I have no intention of doing so. My mom already think that I am super kiasu to sign cay up for phonics class. If she knows I want cay to attend more classes, she will faint.

mac parties:
i'm not sure if there are additional charges for the so called party host. otherwise $7 per kid includes a goodie bag and a happy meal. And a bday cake is additional at $15. Maybe I can check it out with my cousin who's a store manager in one of the stores.
shane,
the timing on sat is 9, 11.30, 2 and 4.30. sun on is without the 4.30 slot.
i'm not sure if they can let so many of us go for a trial at the same time. I'm supposed to call back on thurs to book a trial for next monday. Do u want to join me next monday for trial, i'm looking at the 4.30pm. weekday trial cost $44.
i'm not sure if there are additional charges for the so called party host. otherwise $7 per kid includes a goodie bag and a happy meal. And a bday cake is additional at $15. Maybe I can check it out with my cousin who's a store manager in one of the stores.

Judging on JJ's performance at Edufarm, I don't think he is ready for sit-down type of classes.
JG & GUG are also sit-down type right?

That sounds like a good option! Yah, LV please find out more. Thanks.

weekday trial
i'm not sure i can make it, tho' i'll like to try and see how good they are since the feedback so good.
LV, will u be able to check how many mummies they can accomodate ? Then i see how? thanks ....
the 4.30pm slot is gd.
caymom, glayz,
ya sometimes i do feel they are poor thing too...tt y always tell myself don't overdo it. i think once a week 1 class is ok... now they nothing to do at home is ok ..
i think it's worse when they start school. mon-fri go school then wekends got to attend enrichment somemore and it's not just 1 class, got ballet, piano, etc etc... just hope next time i wun do that =P can only say hope cos s'pore is so competitive.

Shane,
At the moment, I just want cay to have as much fun as possible. She seems to enjoy Edufarm from what I have observed so far. Maybe it's because she can roam around on her own, the things taught are simple and there is music for her to dance. For classes that require her to do more things, she tends to get frustrated. My hb expects her to do more enrichment as she grows older because he was brought up that way. I'm the opposite, I only want cay to enjoy herself, so if she doesn't like, I will not force her.

I agree with you. Jay attended Zoo Phonics for about 3 months now. My focus is for him to make some frens, socialise and have fun. Basically is to train up his confidence level. The cirriculum is not fantastic and i probably can conduct the same back home but the environment is different. You get to see how your kid interract with others ( teacher, classmates and parents)
For the first 2 months, i'm constantly embarassed becos Jay just like to explore and touch everything in the room. I'm always apologising on his behalf for distracting the class. After the 1 month break ( P.Hs), he's back to school yesterday. I'm glad to see some improvement, he can concentrate better during story-telling and flashcards. The best time is still song & dance with all the props and all as well as art & craft. He loved it although mummy is feeling abit bored with the repetition
When they are older and can articulate better, it will then be time to review his needs again. For now, it's fun time!
