I adore Bento so much recently......and I wish I have some more creativity skills to make it come true one day.

Then one day in the morning, like usual, I couldn't have any idea to prepare Fritz's breakfast. Suddenly this idea appeared. I wanna make a simple Bento as I don't have many tools for it. So I just made the simply one.

When I showed it to him, he was showing great reaction. He was so in love with it. He even couldn't wait to munch it. He grabbed his chair and sat down nicely.

He chosed the flower's circle cheese and the eyes. I made the eyes from chocolate sprinkles. Then, he ate one by one till his plate cleaned.

It's really quite simple but his reaction was so excited. Maybe next time I have to be more creative to make Bento....hehehehhehehee.......and I can't wait to see his unexpected reaction later......^o^

Pictures

I love this week vocabularies. He knows the animals very well. He recognize the barn as Barney's house. So when he saw Barn pictures, he always said "Barney's house" in Bahasa instead "Barn" in English....^^

Activities
*Dough*
He's willing to make this letter G by rolling the dough with his two little hands. He also wanted to press the dough on it with his fingers though he didn't do it all, I helped him much.

*Color the Objects*
He knew all the pictures in Bahasa and it's not started with letter G (only guitar). Surprisingly, he knew Guitar as I never introduced it to him. It must be from Handy Manny that he watched daily. ^^

*Circle Letter*

He was so enthusiast coloring this Goat though it's not the proper worksheet when he found the broken blue crayon. He insisted to color it and I decided to color the letter G with red.

*Color the Goat*
Then he continued his coloring with this pic but not as enthusiast as before....=__="

*Paste the Objects*
He knew the objects mostly in Bahasa and Gingerman was the only object he didn't know. He could mention the Guitar and Giraffe well in English.

*Sequencing*

He learnt about the concept of Small - Medium - Big. So far he's really understand the Big and Small concept but less in Medium. He was doing it nicely after I showed him once. He put the small goat then the big goat and the last was the medium one.

*Matching the Goats*
I love his giggle when he's doing it. He, purposely, did the mistake and waited for me to say "tetooooot" {the wrong sound} then he giggled aloud. Though he did the correct one, he still waited for me to say it. (x_x)

Tracing
*Lines*
Done well!! ^^

*Letter G*
He did it with my help and luckily he wanted to follow it. ^^

*Puzzle Goat*
He didn't enthusiast when doing it as always......-__-'

Learning Toys
*Tractors and Farm Animals*

We've got this toys from one of my students' parents. She kindly gave us lots of unused toys as her kids is growing up already.

This tractor was one of Fritz's fave toys. There are lots of activities we can do while we're playing it. If you press the button in front of the tractor, it can move. There's a horn too. Then, if you press the personals characters then they'll produce some sounds. Mr Bear - Old McDonald's Song, Cow - moo, Sheep - baa, Horse - neigh, Pig - oink, and Chicken - 'kukuruyuuuuk'


Role Play : Cars
Playing with his cars is his hobby.

That day, he preferred to play in my bed. He put all his cars toys and started to use his imaginary. He put some of his cars inside the bolster. He giggled aloud when I pretended angry with his act.

Then, he put all of them together in a row and sang a Happy B'day song.


What a lovely scene it was....

This week, we didn't continue with the letter as he was looking so bored with those. So I decided to take a little rest from it. We did the Cars week as he's so falling in love with everything about Cars. I took the material from 1+1+1 blog.

Cars Activities
*Matching the Shape*
He starts to recognize some shapes. He was also so happy when he saw that there's a lot of Cars' characters inside those shape. He knows mostly except the square, rectangle and hexagon. He's also willing to match those.
He loved doing this tracing lines, however, he was unsuccessfully tracing the other lines except the straight ones. He wasn't still capable doing the zigzag and wavy lines. He's willing to learn it though it's still quite difficult one for his little fingers. ^^

*Counting Cars*

Of course he didn't do all this worksheet by himself. He also couldn't able to count the object nicely. However,I'm so proud of him that he knows the numbers now. When I mentioned the numbers, he could point to the right ones! *yay*

Practical Life
*Peel the eggshells*
He tried to peel the eggshells though he didn't make it out. It's a little difficult for his little fingers. At least, he wanted to do it. ^^

Learning Toys
*Duplo Blocks*
This week, he was so into playing with blocks. He tried to make the tallest tower by joining all the single blocks. Then he pulled down and bang! He giggled loud....
Miscellaneous
*Taking pictures*
Taking pictures using camera is a big hit for Fritz recently. When I tried to captures some poses of him, he showed his refusal and asked the camera. Then, he tried to capture some pics of us. And this was his perfect pics he's taken while the rest of all were blur, even we couldn't recognize what pics were those. ;p

Fun
*Trial at Bumble Bee Preschool*

We had a trial in one school named Bumble Bee Preschool. It's in Permata Buana. As they want to open it near my neighborhood, some of my friends asked me to join the trial with them. Together with Ms Yulis and Raphael and Ms Lina and Ethan, we agreed to join the trial. We met them on the spot.
*Attending Wedding Party*
Joining with Mom with her friends in a wedding party.

*Kids on March*

It's really fun....

Kids on March were in the party!!

Jiska's brother, Rubby was getting married that day. Jiska has invited us to join with her there. {thanks, Jis ^^}

I love this couple so much. They were in relationship, I think, more than 10 years. They have been together since both of them were in school. Rubby was in high school [SMA] and Iin was in junior high school [SMP]. Their relationship were looking so good, less gossip.

So, when I saw them in the stage, I just felt so happy for their marriage as they have "walked" together through years relationship. It's very hard to maintain good relationship with your partner, right? They are successfully passing it.

Seeing their brightly smile and how lovely they are really made me so envy with their happiness. oooooh.....so sweet couple.....^^

Iin sang a song for Rubby, I don't wanna miss a thing - Aerosmith. Then Rubby stood beside her. Iin sang it with her beautiful voice. What a lovely moment!!

When I arrived, the party has started. We met Arif and Yossy, Ali's besties, there. Both were trying to play with Fritz but in the wrong moment. Fritz had just got up from his sleep. So he cried! ^^

In the same moment, I saw Junieke behind me but I couldn't talk much with her as I was having my difficult time to make Fritz comfy with the environment.

Then, we were looking for a place to let Fritz sat down and ate his meal. I saw Tirza, Jiska younger sister. I asked her permission to sit inside the family area as there's the only one place which had lots of chairs and tables.

One by one AdEM's members came nearby and it became the best spot for us to stand and chat together. There were Regina's [Richelle, her mom and her mother in law], Vivi's [Gwen, her mom and her hubby], Yohana and Rubein, Ithine and Erwin and Junieke.

We took some photos by asking one of our classmate, Steven [Gincu] {insisted} to come nearby.

I really enjoyed my time gathering with my besties and saw some oldies friends from high school as we're in the same school before. It's been 10 years since we left the school and all of them were looking so different. I missed my school days moments......
