same here,
when cellin still 20 months we broght her to Baby Jumper Gym, they have little walker class suitable for her age, its only 1 hour at weekend (one a week) but the good news its parents and kids program so mummy and daddy can join in.
cellin love it there, she used to be so clingy, but after just 2 classes she enjoys herself there.
and even though its just once a week, cellin show a progress like everyday class, her motoric, social skill, memory skill, are improving really fast.
but it's kind a pricy, thats why i moved, but now at a cheap PG, she learn half from BJG..
i went at the bt Gombak branch, about 2 bus stop (945) from Bt Gombak MRT station

hi carnellin,
went there on sat afternoon. place was so packed and according to them, there is a long q for the trial classes. most likely i will sign up my boy for the next term, starting 7 apr for 'trial', since till now still no news of the trial class from them.
din get to see much, cos lessons started and i thot it is an open area where you can view from outside. abit disappointed though. but since so many people said its gd, i may just let him try for a term lor.

yeah their class are closed because its an intensive prog

thay mop after each class and then spay it with disinfectant (just like when we're in plane heading for US or Aussie)..
they keep things very nice there (couldnt find any other place that hygienic)

hi carnellin
i'm keen on the playgroup too...yes, afternoons are better cos my bb needs her morning nap or she'll be cranky.
not sure if any mummies here are interested to join with their babies/toddlers for these playdates. this group of mummies is very active with outdoor activities every week. Very good for those of us who wanna expose our children to nature and the outdoors...refer to the link below

Hi,
My aim is to expose the child to various skills early so that we parents can help our kids to build on these talents even at the primary school level. So Cherie Hearts did introduce a few classes I've yet seen any progress yet... They are very result oriented, they will show u how many awards/certificates that had been awarded by the govt. I will still source other playgroups/childcare till I find it's suitable for him...
In my opinion, kids at this age can absorb knowledge like a sponge. We should allow them to learn as much as they like, and at the same time, use fun methods to instill in them an interest in learning.
I don't have to choose enrichment classes simply based on what I think is important or just because other people are doing that." As long as I feel that my son develops linguistically and creatively, not just academically he than gradually and more importantly, will enjoy school!"
Ultimately, your child's needs and interests should be the most important consideration when choosing the right school for him.
"Go to a few places, have a feel of the environment, meet the supervisor and look at the curriculum. Most importantly, you have to KNOW your child and see if the environment fits him,".

i have a vacant unit in Garden Vista now...in the process of getting it sold off...but we can still use the pool now.
Only thing is we probably would not be able to bathe our kids if we need hot water. But since we stay nearby, can always go home to wash up.
Maybe we can have a potluck picnic first, playground, swim then go home. I can also bring my bubble machine, sure the kids will love it.

Hi carnellin,
Remember I mentioned to you about the Church playgroup that is newly setup? I receive this flyer in my mail box they are having open house this Sat so if you are keen you can pop over and take a look. It is meant for children born in year 2001 to year 2005 so yr gal Cellin qualifies. Most likely I will pop by to take a look as it is a premier school associated with Raffles House Preschool. I have not decided to enrol Wayne as my mum finds it troublesome to send him to school as needs to walk quite a distance. Anyway, here's their website:
www.gracehouse.com.sg
* they are waiving off the registration fee for those confirming registration on 7 April.
