I still had Apple materials from last week. So we continued with it.
There's a book about Apple. As he always loves the book, it's good for him.


Actually this week, we started new theme. It's gonna be an Astronaut week. However, the material itself wasn't ready as the ink was running out. SO, we just did a little bit of Astronaut week.

Then he had to guess the first letter in every cards. He did it well!!

Math

Another worksheet for this week was tracing number 1. He knows the number exactly, however, he's never trying to make a number with his little fingers. So it's time to ask him more on tracing numbers. We started with number 1 and we're going to other numbers in the following weeks.

Shape

He learnt how to find objects based on the shape. This time, he had to find circle objects. He made it well!

Learning Toys

It's fishing time!!

He asked me to take out again his fishing toys. He said that he's going to fishing after taking bath. So cute huh!! LOL

Miscellaneous
Fritz wasn't too excited when Mama said that we wanted to have a trial class for Chinese class near Opa's house. He just felt that we wanted to go to school.

We had a trial in the afternoon, around 3 o'clock. So when it's the time, surprisingly, he's getting excited. He prepared himself very well. He changed his clothes and wanted to use his own shoes. Then, we're ready to have trial. We went by motor as it's very near. We met Mama's sister's friend there, Tante Ellin, as she works there.

We'd to wait for few minutes before the class begun. Fritz sat nicely beside Mama. He saw some new friends and all were bigger than him. When, the teacher said it's the time, Fritz couldn't wait for it. He asked me to go with the others, "come on, Mama. Hurry!!" (Ayo Mama, cepetan)...

He's really easily mingle with the others. He shook his hands and introduced his name. Great job!! He also insisted to join with their class. LOL!!

His class was upstairs with others big friends too. He joined with 4-5 years old friends. They still don't have any class for Fritz's age.

He's a little bit shy when he had to repeat what Laoshi pronounced in Chinese. By the time, he'd enjoyed himself. Mama got out from the class as I've seen he settled down already.

He didn't cry but he's looking for Mama. Then I'd chose to end up the class as it's not a suit class for him. I was afraid that we made the class couldn't concentrate well. :)

So far, he loved the class and he enjoyed his time there.


One morning, when we went to the market, we went by his bike. He saw a cat was licking all it's body. He's getting curious with it. He couldn't stop staring at it. I explained to him that the cat was taking a bath. It's a new lesson for him. Yeay...we learn everything real!! ^^

Fun
Fritz was so excited when he came to new building of Apple Tree Preschool, Mama's previous work field. We went there as Mama was so curios and being invited by the owner to come and see it. So here we were..

When Fritz saw a big space with lots of kids stuffs, he was so excited to explore it. Then he couldn't wait to play with those things.

After Ms Natasya, the owner herself, asked us around, Fritz had his own opportunity to play inside Apple Town. What a big Apple Town they had!

If there's someone asks me about my age, I'm gonna said that I'm still 20s. LOL

Ooooohhh how time really flies away and high..I'm 29 years old now and next year it's gonna be 30. It's really bad news for me as everyone's gonna call me "tante" no more "kakak" or "ci" or even "dek". :(  I'm old! LOL

Hahahahhaa...BTW, I'm ready getting old and mature. Hopefully in this my last 20s, I can be a better person in every single days. Making something great each days and always be a good Mom for Fritz and a cool wifey for my hubby. May all my bad attitude reduce and can control my self more.

I really had a great birthday blast this year. Though it's quite simple but it's really great. My boss gave me a fruit cake (sorry for not taking photo for it) and it's very yummy. I brought fried noodles there and ate together with some kids. Then the next day, I brought my cupcakes. How happy they were.

Thanks for another year, God!! 

Apple Tree Preschool in Sunter was my previous work field. After I resigned 3 years ago, they have fast progress. Now, they have new building and lots of students. The owner herself invited me to come and join with their Opening Ceremony. For one reason, I couldn't make it and I promised to her that I'd come on Monday.

Here I was, in front of new building of Apple Tree. My previous work before, that I've never imagine that it will be big like this. What amazing job they maintain for this.

When I decided to come, Ms Natasya greeted us warmly in front of the gate. What a humble person she is. I really adore her so much as my boss before. She always tries to be balance, as a boss and as a friend indeed.

She showed me every single parts of the room there. We started from first floor till the roof top that she uses for outdoor playground. I can imagine how happy children now that they have big place to explore, Fritz also. He really excited and can't wait to play there.


They have a big Apple Town, Physical Education Room (it's as same as we look like in the mall with its many stages!!!!), Swimming Pool, and Outdoor Play (this is as you've seen in movie, preschool from Europe or America). Every class with big space to explore also be there. Wow!! Speechless seeing how grow fast they are. From the data she told, now they have more than 200 children and 40 teachers in 5 years. Wow again!!

And in the end our conversation and showing places things, she asked me to join with them again as I said that I live near now. She even told her Principal that I could join anytime I want to and offer my own salary (of course, they will consider it again :P). Gosh....what a delicious offering she gives!

So sorry for this, but I think for now, I prefer to have my own time with my boy. Though it's very tempting, but I think I've decided to stay with my own decision. Thanks for the offering, Ms.....Maybe one day when I'm ready to get back, I'll call you to ask for the job. ^_*

Good luck for your new building. Praying lots for you, hopefully more prosperous and more children you'll have in the future. All the best for you!!

Then, this year, thanks to GOD, we could watch it though it's just two of us while Ali just stayed outside waiting for us.

The show itself took almost 2,5 hours. It's really a perfect show for us as it's our first time.

We came 1 hour before to get a great view from our seat. We bought the cheapest ticket one and it located on the side of the stage. Though it couldn't clearly, Fritz still excited to see Mickey's and friends.

We brought our own meal for dinner inside. However, the committees said it's not allowed to bring any food or drinks from outside. I heard before we entered the gate, so I just hid and tried to put our meal down of the bag and covered it with Fritz's clothes.

The guard thankfully didn't check all our bag, so we did it!! Yeaaaahhh.... We had our dinner inside the show like the others.

This week, we started with new subjects from new and various materials. Fritz started with Letter A again. And the materials were taken mostly from Confessions of a Homeschooler. The rest were from School Sparks and still used from 1+1+1=1 blog, (Carisa and Ladybug)

Letter A
Day 1
We started new material this week. We began the day by tracing the letter A and coloring the objects. Like usual, he always refuses coloring things and no wonder how messy it was..

Next, we continued with tracing various lines. He's getting great in tracing lines. He tried his best to trace in the lines. Good job!

Making patterns by recognizing the letter A. Still needs help when doing the lines, however, he's good in recognizing the upper and lower A.

Day 2
For the next day, he wanted to show it to Papa what he always learns with Mama. So, he asked Papa to see him while he's working. Sooo proudly. LOL

He'd to guess the next patterns. He still needs more practice on it as he's not getting use.

Puzzle time!! He loved it...

Ahhh...it's easy for him, just pasted the apples on the tree. Simple and very fun for him.


Yeaaahh...he's getting good in tracing. He made it very neatly with red marker. Red is his favorite color, "like McQueen, ka-chow".

Day 3

He continued what he made firstly in apartment, tracing letter A again. Though he made not really nice firstly, I asked him to make it nice.

Yeah!! He tried his best to gain his skill in tracing. And here's the result...

Reading a book about the word "Away". He's excited as always. ^^

Math time!!
He had to count the seeds and match with the correct numbers. He did it great!

Day 4
It's new for Fritz and he's quite excited with this. I pasted the letters on the used bottle cap that I washed and cleaned first before it. He could differentiate it between the upper and lower letter.


Ahh....again tracing letter A on the vocabulary paper. He'd made it before but he didn't wanna continue it. SO he'd to finish what he did before.

And the last one, matching the apple shapes. He has recognized all the shapes perfectly. Great!!

Practical Life
Fritz was busy helping Oma drying the clothes during on Mama's working time. Oma sent some pictures for Mama seeing as Mama had to work that morning without seeing Fritz waken up.

Drying clothes are another important things too for our daily life. Fritz really needs this to practice. Good job, Fritz!!

Miscellaneous
It's happened once in a life time seeing a father and son moment like this. Papa was being bathed Fritz one morning day. It's really so precious having this picture.
