Nursery : Letter Week Craft {N, Q, P and J}

Nursery : Letter Week Craft {N, Q, P and J}

Fritz is currently 30th months 4 weeks

Craft
*Letter N*

I loved this activity as Fritz did. He was so eager applying the {pretended} nest from the green crepe paper. Then, he asked me to get 2 wiggle eyes for the birds. He's very insisted to paste the eyes though as you can see, the birds are small. LOL


Full of excitement when doing it!! He's so excited pasting the number. He also called out the numbers when he applied the glue. I cut the numbers from the daily calendar. ^^


It's a pistachio shell nut...LOL...

I 've got the idea when Pop has bought it. I thought it's gonna be unique.....^^

Fact: Mom did it as Fritz hasn't enthusiast anymore in crafting for that day......

*Letter J*

It's really a simple idea coming ahead from me....^^

I just printed the Jellybeans from Google's images then asked Fritz to paste it. Thankfully, he's eager pasting it. ^^

*Letter P*

He's so excited when he's seeing some his photos with Papa. He's quite shocked when he saw himself using a float in the pool. He absolutely didn't remember it. ^^

He pasted all Papa's picture by himself and I helped him to put the letter P around as it's full with the pictures.

*Letter Q*

He said that it's a chicken instead of Quail....hahahahhaa...

He's not totally wrong as I cut as the same color with chicken. It's yellow....LOL......[mommaaaaaaaa!!!]


Hmmm......it's a queen.....surely....as there were the thorn and the slayer as a Queen.....[insisted]


Question mark as he's seen on Mickey's Mouseketools. LOL Look at his expression when he's done pasting the question mark. He looked so silly!!

Workbook
*Math*

He's really showing improvement in counting the objects. He can put his finger right on the object one by one as he spells it loud. However, he got a little difficulty in tracing number 4. He asked me to hold his hand as he lost his confy to do that.

*Tracing Lines*


I was soooooo surprised!!

Fritz is getting great in tracing. He can trace these various lines without any help from me. He was so excited when I asked him. He said that he's willing to do it. WOW!!

Fun
He went to the Karawaci mall with Opa, Oma and Uncle together. Mom didn't join with them as I have to go work. He's really get a lot of fun there, I think. He was brought some DVD by Opa. He got 4 DVD; In the Night Garden, Finley, Teletubbies and I forgot one more.....

This weekend, we spent the day by going to Subang. We went with Ali's family, his mom (popo), his grams (po-thai) and his youngest brother (zhuk2). Fritz was so excited that it's his first trip with his paternal family as he always goes with my family.

Field Trip: Subang to Bandung

Field Trip: Subang to Bandung

This weekend, we spent the day by going to Subang. We went with Ali's family, his mom (popo), his grams (po-thai) and his youngest brother (zhuk2). Fritz was so excited that it's his first trip with his paternal family as he always goes with my family.

We went out from our apartment around 6 o'clock. We had to wake Fritz up from his bed and of course he didn't take a bath...;p We had to pick the rest of the members at Popo's house.They're already waiting for us.

Few minutes after we packed all the things, we're ready to go..it's just took not more than 2 hours in the way before we arrived safely at Subang. Then we had to find the church after that By looking at the brochure we've had from the church, finally we arrived there.

We arrived at Catholic Church, Kristus Sang Penabur. Lots of people came to pray as it's the month of Marie and mostly they did the Way of the Cross.

great grams, Papa and Fritz

Actually there's nothing we could do except praying. Of course I couldn't do it as my eyes always had to watch this little kid. He explored the venue unending. He moved here and there....run here and there....called out us loudly.....gosh!!

We of course took some pictures there. ^^ And the rest of time we're busy gobbling some food around. As it's so hot, Fritz asked for coconut syrup ice. It's so yummy!! ^^ We bought some traditional crackers. Couldn't wait to eat it!! hehehhehee....

Then, we continued our day by going to Ciater market. Pothai wanna buy some vegetables there 'cause it's quite cheap there. We bought some traditional crackers again. Fritz got sleepy and needed me to carry him. uuugghhh.....he's getting heavy now!!

Finish our time in the market, so we continue enjoying the day to Bandung. We stopped by in the vegetable monger. I bought a little pumpkin for our Halloween craft this week. Popo and Pothai were busy buying some cheaper vegetables.

Bandung, here we came!! The scene was very nice and also the way. Breezily weather too!! I really couldn't say any words to describe it. We couldn't get this thing in Jakarta......^^

We just went to some favorite food place; Amanda brownies and Prima Rasa. I and Fritz had Batagor Riasari near Prima Rasa. Though it's quite expensive {it's Bandung, man!} but I really like the taste. It's yummy!! {Maybe I didn't have good lunch that day, I thought ^^}

Then, we went home after that. Fritz was fell asleep for almost 2,5 hours during our way home on my lap. I was so exhausted to hold him. Fiuuuuh.....

We arrived safely in Jakarta around 6 PM.

Thanks to Mr Driver, my beloved hubby.....^^
It's maybe our first trip again after quite some time.....and hopefully we're gonna make it again another months.......

Nursery : Letter Rr

Nursery : Letter Rr
Fritz is currently 30th months 3 weeks

ABC
He came back!! {not fully coming back}. He's eager to poke the dough to make the letter R. Then he continued to make Mickey using it by himself. He's trying to make as same as I did.....nice try, boy!!

Tracing the letter R by himself.....

I prepared some pictures to be stick on the paper related to the letter R. He knows mostly the pictures...

He's not really enthusiast when he had to color the objects. He preferred to make face around it and trace the letter......*Sigh*

Craft

Making rabbit for our craft. It's very easy, I've got the idea from Totally Tots.

Fritz was so excited as usual when we had to make craft. He loves to paste the wiggle eye for the rabbit. He also excited to make the whiskers. Look at the whiskers, it looked like mustache to whiskers, didn't it??? ^^


As Fritz was so crazy with Cars, it's great idea to make Road for the letter craft. He just applied the stickers on the black construction paper that I've cut before into lowercase letter r. Then I added some stripes on it.


Recently, while he's got sleepy, he always shows his temper.

When we made this Rainbow craft, he also showed it as he's getting sleepy. He insisted to apply the green part on the bottom. To be honest, it's me made the rainbow. -__-"


Color

We collected some RED things from his toys. We found a lantern, a big Cars, a small Cars, a tomato, a paprika, a grape, a table tennis racket, a mega block mat, and a book of mine.

Practical Life

He explored the rice. He poured and transferred the rice using spoon and few bowls. He played with it almost half an hour. Then I added some marbles inside it too.

Learning Toys
He asked me to play with this ABC play mat. He could mention some alphabet correctly. Then, he saw the magnetic alphabet in the fridge door. He took and match the letter in the mat. Though he just matched it several, I was quite shock and surprised with his alphabet recognition. Good job, Fritz!! ^^

Gross Motor
Socialization is my big priority for Fritz as he finds a little difficulty in controlling his emotion. So, it's good for him to have new friends every where we go. He has to make a friend with others though maybe he never meets with them anymore next time. At least, he can get socialize with his new friends and environment.

As we're in apartment, it's good condition for him to get socialize with new friends. There's lots of kids in our neighborhood. I'm so happy for that and I always ask him to play with others.

That day, when we wanted to go and we found that our car was stuck by another car in the parking lot, Fritz met a new friend, named Dafa. Suddenly, both of them were busy running here and there.

Dafa is older than Fritz. He could jump from the higher to lower place and Fritz was so excited seeing him and wanted to do the same thing. Unluckily, Fritz couldn't able to jump like he did as Fritz still learns how to get down from steps.

It's a good enforcement for Fritz. He learns to go up and down by his own. I didn't wanna help him to do so. So he tried again and again. Good try, boy!!


As he has a new bike, he started to learn how to ride a bike. That noon in apartment, he learned how to move his bike with Pop. He's got frustrated coz he couldn't success ride it. hihihii....he really needs to practice more on it....

Song

I introduced him the nursery song. I played the song on Youtube using my cell phone. He's really so enthusiast.

First, he asked to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, then The Wheel on The Bus, Itsy Bitsy Spider and the last one was Row Row Your Boat.

Fun

Fritz was so excited when he's knowing that he's gonna see baby. That day, we're gonna see Aunt Jeanne's baby. His name is Andreas Nathanael Halim. She was delivered her baby on 8th October in Hermina Hospital, Sunter.

Fritz insisted to go with Aunt Jeanne when her baby needed to have his injection. So, I decided to bring him to the babies room. We only could see the babies from the windows. He was so excited to go inside. It's not allowed.

So, we're just standing outside and seeing the babies. They're really so cute. They remembered me when Fritz was still baby. Missed that moment!!

Don't judge me, please....

Don't judge me, please....
To be honest, I was quite very disappointed when I know that few people sometimes judged me with their opinions. Judging is really hurt, you know!

They can give their opinions about me and I accept it but please don't ever judge me like you are a Judge Bow! ^^

Sometimes, people can't get what is inside my head and my heart. That I really need from them, just please respect what I'm thinking and feeling as I respect what they think and feel. At least, I don't wanna "push" someone to follow my opinion.

Everybody has their right to choose what they want when they are in the crossing street. We as their family, friends or stranger just try to help with our mind but the decision is still coming out from your brain to your heart then to your mouth.

Not every opinions is right for the one who need it. So please.....respect mine then I'll respect you....

Nursery : Letter Qq

Nursery : Letter Qq
Fritz is currently 30th months 2 weeks

We didn't too much activity related to letter Q this week. First, it's because letter Q has few common things to learn. Second, Mom was too busy with the chores because of maid-less week. And the last one was Mom has so many reasons.....^^^^

Start from this week, we change the title from Pre-Nursery into Nursery.....

ABC
Dough
I think he's getting bored with this activity as he didn't too enthusiast as before. He asked me to roll the dough for him and he just wanna to poke it. He was too busy with his new invention. He found a diamond mold at the bottom of the dough place. He made the diamond again and again.

Tracing

However, he still wanted to trace this letter using his favorite black crayon though he asked me, again, to hold his hand to trace it.

Match Shadow

Pasting is still a BIG hit for him. He made this activity all by himself. ^^

Paste Objects

After he did the shadow matching, we continued pasting it. He didn't show any excited while doing it. I helped him to apply the glue and he pasted the paper.

Coloring Objects
And it's the last activity. Look at the paper, it's plain and just a little bit color inside. It showed that he didn't like this activity for this week.

Math

I made the numbers using a paper and crayon then I put it inside the Congklak based. Then, he has to count the beads based on the number. He still didn't so enthusiast when doing this one to one correspondence. I still helped him to count it. However, he can recognize the number very well from 1 to 10.

Workbook

He successfully made Math worksheet by himself as he knows already the numbers. He counted the objects and circled the numbers. I was so proud of him.

Practical Life


He was so excited when I brought 10 quail eggs in front of him. It's time for him to peel the quail eggs. Firstly, he was so enthusiast. He tried to peel it the skin one by one. When it's done, he just ate it without my permission....Hahahahhaha^^

...and it's ended by I was peeling the eggs and he's eating those....he ate 6 totally... ;p


Every time I asked him to brush his teeth, he's always showing his refusal with loudly scream and cry. Very bad time!

That day, he insisted to brush his teeth by his own when I {never bored} asked him to brush his teeth. Though I knew it's not clean enough {he just brushed the front lower teeth only}, I still tried not to re-clean up again. Trying to believe on what he's done. Give him responsibility in his early age too....Good boy! ^^

Gross Motor
Actually it's not a real gardening, he's just pouring the water to the plants and he's so cute.... It's his first time do this gardening.

Role Play

He really has lots of imagination in his mind. He sometimes makes me quite surprise with what his doing. The pictures above showed that he's playing with his imaginary mind.

He put his dolls together and asked me to get the camera. I thought he asked me to get him my own camera and he would take a pic for them. It's totally copycatting me.

When I gave him my camera, he insisted to get another camera. It's made me confuse. Which camera did he mean?

The Lego, Momma!!!

Oh nooo......he pretended that he took pictures with his own modification camera. Though his acts are copycatting me, but this camera was his new invention......what a clever mind does he have!!!! ^^

Fun : 5 places in a row
On Tuesday, Mom asked Fritz to go along together with Oma also.

First place was Living World at Alam Sutera. He played there while Mom was having a private course. However, when Mom picked him up, he refused to get out from Toys Kingdom and insisted to stay there looking for toys. He screamed out and asking to go inside. Bad tantrum!!

Then, the next stop was visiting one of Mom's friends {Mom's fave}. She has own restaurant named De Waroeng. It's a cheaper restaurant and it's recommended. She greeted us charm and asked us which food we wanted to eat. Fritz also had his own food, beehoon and rice.

While Mom was talking with her friend, Fritz was happy playing with Justin, the son. Both were busy playing soccer. Actually, they weren't playing together as Justin was 7 years old. Hihihihi....

As it's still in Alam Sutera, Mom decided to visit her bestie, Inpuz, as she was having blighted ovum and had to lose her baby again inside her womb. It's the right time to see her and cheer her up. The fact, she's fine, thankfully though she might be cried inside.

Before we went there, we went to the pastry equipment shop to buy some stuffs for making cupcake. Mom wants to make a birthday cupcake for Pop in November. Hihhiihih.....

After we had a nice talk with Inpuz and Dicky, we went home. So happy when they guided us to the nearest road.

Then, we went to buy krupuk for Pop. The bad news happened when I was choosing the krupuk. Suddenly, Calvin {Mom's private student} came and asked for study for his English exam the next day. Ooooh......it's really a big mistake of Mom....

Overall, it's really a happy day.....spending more than 6 hours in Tangerang....^O^


He was so excited every time he played with Calvin, Mom's private students. He usually plays puzzles together but that time, they played with Fritz's cars toys. Fritz played nicely firstly, after few minutes, he got cranky when Calvin wanted to match the cars with its colors. Fritz was feeling insecurely that his favorite car was in others hands. He was angry and shouting. Really bad temper!

This emotion side really needs to be fixed up as he always shows this kind of emotion in front of other kids.

New Ride.....

New Ride.....

We bought a new bike for Fritz. He was extremely happy when he knew that he has it. Though he still couldn't able to ride it, he tried and tried again to push the pedal using his little right foot. When it's moving, he was so delighted and me too!!

This picture showed when Pop brought it to our apartment, and he straightly wanna open the plastic wraps around the bike.

We plan to bring this bike to Opa's house. Hopefully he could use it every afternoon during my work time. ^^
