Nursery : Letter Ss

Nursery : Letter Ss
Fritz is currently 31st months 2 week

ABC
Dough
S for Star...he knows the letter as well he knows the objects.

He's getting use to with dough now. When I got it out, he asked me to roll for him and gave to him to be poked as letter S. He repeated again and again the sound of letter S - shhh...shhh...shhh....^^

Tracing Letter
Tracing letter is also a big HIT for him. He made the letter by himself. He's really trying his best to follow the line into letter S...Good job, boy!!

Tracing Line
He's still great at this!!

Coloring Objects
Coloring isn't his fave! He really doesn't like coloring at all. If he could choose, he prefers tracing the lines to coloring. Look at his coloring, it's still messy. Hahahahha.....

Matching Shadow
Another activities he likes, matching the pic into its shadow. He loves to make it....^^

Math


Counting the stars and match to the numbers. It's too easy for him....hahahhahaa.....soooo snob mom!! ^O*

Science

Loves...loves...loves Sugar and Salt so much....

Every time, Mom's cooking something, he must be asking for tasting Sugar and Salt.

As we still learn about letter S, it's nice to get some pictures of him tasting both of these things.

Sugar is sweet and Salt is salty....nyum....nyum......^^

Gross


Playing Soccer!!

He's still learning how to play with it as he's a fine-motor-skill boy. He gets a little difficulty in kicking the ball.

I asked him to kick the ball into the under of the chair. He tried again and again then he's frustrated and chose to roll the ball into it.....Hahahahhaha......clever boy.....

However, he did it in the end and successfully kicked it......after few times trying...^^


He is cycling now!!!!!

I'm so happy to see him can cycle his bike after take few time teach him. Yaaaayyyy!!!

He's proudly cycling around the house and said "Fritz is a good boy ya, Mama??" Hahahahhhaa......Yes, you are!!!!!

Cooking


That morning, we went to the traditional market near Opa's house to buy Strawberry. We're going to make Strawberry Milkshake. He's so excited to make it as usual. ^^

Ingredient:
- Strawberry
- UHT Milk
- Vanilla ice cream
- ice cubes

Just put all the ingredients together into blender and let it mixed up. But I think it's not really sweet enough for an adult, we can put some sugar into it.

Workbook


He's willing to trace the Square that he knows very well. Though it's not too nice, he's really trying his best to trace it....Good job, boy!!



Then we continued to trace the Star. He got a little bit hard to trace the star by himself, so he asked me to hold his hands.


We're making number 7. Though he's not ready yet to learn number 7, he's able to do it well. He traced the numbers and did lots of counting objects. He's great!! ^^


We learnt about the concept of SHORT and LONG. He had to get the concept before he checked the work and so far he did well. He worked nicely on it. ^^

Practical Life


He's getting smart using SCISSORS. He can use two hands, one for holding the paper and scissors in another hand. He's so seriously cutting the origami paper. I use origami because it's quite thick for him to cut rather than paper.



Another Practical Life we did for this week, using Sieve...

I gave him my sieve and little flour to him to let him explore with it. He didn't too enthusiast playing with it. He just excited in the 5 minutes first, then he's busy to taste this flour....oooohhhhh......

And in the end, here's the result....

7:00 PM

Let me free.....

Let me free.....
I'm trying very hard not to:

Say words with my mouth to say what I wanna say...

Listen carefully with my ear to hear they talk...

Open widely my eyes to see they do...

Just try to be a DEAF, BLIND and MUTE person in this place.....

What they do, what they say, what they act are not my own business anymore...that's what u want, huh!!

Nursery : Pumpkin Theme

Nursery : Pumpkin Theme
Fritz is currently 31st months 1 week

Pumpkin Theme
As we didn't celebrate any Halloween in our tradition, so I just prepared Pumpkin Theme for this week. Fritz was so excited with these new things and he was totally enthusiast with what we did during this week.

Day 1
We started the day by introducing the letter to him.

poke the dough

He's able to recognize the letter P and the Pumpkin itself. "It's pumpkin, Mama!"


He could trace the letter with less help from me. He tried to do it by himself. It looked nice!! ^^


Introducing letter J for Jack-O- Lantern. He also knows this letter. {so proud for him}

Again, he showed that he's now able to trace the letter with less help from me. Good job, boy!!

It's really amazed me that he's getting great. When I asked him which one the different pumpkins from the row was, he could point it and circle it correctly.


He thrilled with it. He traced it very nice, however he asked me to help him in the wavy lines in the the 3rd paper. ^^

Day 2
He sorted between the Jack-O-Lanterns and Pumpkin. So far, he could do it.

It's a BIG hit for him. He was so into in this puzzle. He managed all by himself as he knows the numbers exactly.

He didn't get the Graph concept. He's so excited in throwing the dice :P Again....again.....and again he threw the dice and didn't stamp the graph....hahahahhaha......

Day 3
He still didn't get the concept but he could paste the picture by looking the pictures in its row. He almost chose the correct picture before applied it in the paper.

Again....he extremely loved this puzzle. As there's a number in the template, so it's very easier for him to paste this puzzle. He learned to recognize the number after 10.

He made it successfully even he chose to paste all the small pumpkins first the he continued medium to big. He proudly posed for me. ^^

Day 4
He has to clip the correct number using the peg. He made it nicely first, he counted the objects and took the peg and clipped it. Done for 2-3 cards. And....he purposely took the peg and clipped the cards before he counted though he knew that he's wrong. He did again and again as I always said "tetot" sound for his wrongdoings. As I sounded that as more he did it wrong. -__-"

He continued with puzzles. For the 1st puzzle it's easier for him as it's only from 1 to 10 but it's getting hard for him when he did the 11-20 puzzle. He couldn't be able to do it.

Day 5
In the 5th day, we just made a little Jack-O-Lantern. I asked Fritz to paste our little pumpkin that we'd bought before at Bandung with eyes and mouth printable.

ABC


He continued with this activity. He learnt the letter and matching the shadow too. It's very an exciting way to learn Alphabet.

Math
I've bought this sticker book a year ago, I thought, when one of big book store gave big discount for every book they sold. Then, I've never showed it to Fritz. I always bring it inside his purple box every time we're going home.

That morning, he saw the sticker numbers and so excited to make it. I was so surprised as amazed with his ability in counting the objects.

Role Play


Recently, he loved to play with his cars toys and sometimes he played it as same as he's seen in the movie. Sometimes he used his imaginary and acted as he's seen in the scene. For example when Mater saw McQueen's back from the rally in Cars 2.

And this was when I was being asked to come to see. Of course, I took my camera in a rush and he posed for me. ^^

Learning Toys

He pretends as a chef who could cut the vegie using knife. Hahahahaha......look at his small hands. So cute!!!

Miscellaneous


He saw my picture (college pics) in the table near our bed and he could find me in that picture. Then, I gave him another pics from my college and I asked him again to find me among my friends. He again could find me.

I've an idea. I gave him my life cycle pics that I put in an album. It's from baby to work period of my life. When he saw a baby, he said that it's him. He said again and again to my toddler pics that it's totally look alike with him. He claimed my toddler pics were him. It's so amazed to know that my face was alike with him.....God's creation!! ^^

Fun


Wow....he wanna slide (again) now.....

There's one time, he refused to slide as he's got a little trauma when he slide. It happened when we played at Giggles.

It really took time for him to get his confidence to slide again. And yesterday I saw him sliding again without any doubt. He went up and slide. He proudly showed it to me!!

He met new friend and she's a girl. Both of them were enjoying playing together. They went up and slide down together. It looked so nice seeing him could make a friend with other.

After that, I took a challenge to bring him to the big indoor playland, still inside Ace Hardware. They provide a big space for kiddos to play with slide and many challenging toys.

I didn't take any pictures there as I was busy to watch him over. He's a little bit not confident there and few times he got "stuck" with others. I still encouraged him to be braver and wanna take a challenge there though in the end he cried loudly as his forehead bumped because of a little accident by a baby boy. Hahahahha...that's life, boy....^^



On Sunday, we had guests in our little Apartment. They're Om Donald, Tante Davi and Rafael, his bestie. However, Fritz was not in his mood as he's sleepy already when they came. He couldn't share his toys with Rafael (Ace) and so many times he's cranky. I think Ace got frustrated with Fritz then he hit Fritz in his face as Fritz always cried and cried. Hahahaha......

Nursery : Fall Theme

Nursery : Fall Theme
Fritz is currently 31st months


Fall Theme
This week, we focused on Fall theme before we have Pumpkin Theme for Halloween Week.

I got the material from Homeschool Creations

1st Day
We started with the shadow. He has to match the shadow. He's so enthusiast pasting it. He made it completely all by himself.

Next, he learned how to sort between the Apples and the Leaves. He got the concept but he asked me to apply the glue and he pasted it. It looked so neat, huh??? Xixixixixixi......

Then, it was tracing. He had to trace various lines a leave to the leaves pile. He did it very well.

The last activity for the 1st day was doing this circle numbers. It should be using a peg to count it but I preferred to ask him pasting the numbers. He did it well....He counted the things one by one and recognized the numbers!!

2nd Day

As we know that he's a puzzle man. He loves puzzle and also with this activity. He had to manage the puzzle based on the number beside. He could manage it very well though he paste it not really nice....;P

Then, continued with sort the leaves based on small-medium-large. He made it nicely with my help applying the glue. Hahahhaa.....

And the last was learning the vocabularies. He was so excited seeing the pictures and repeated the words after me. ^^

Role Play

He suddenly put this Dressing Frame into his head and claimed himself as a Masterchef as he's seen on TV....but I said that he's looking like a Pope......hahahhahaha......

Miscellaneous


Pothai slept with us after we went from Subang. It's to save Papa's time the next morning as he has to work. After Pothai had taken a bath, she asked to stay in the bed. Fritz was still excited to play and he preferred to jump on the bed while Pothai was so tired.

I love this picture, it showed how his great grams loves him so much....so lovely moment....^^


Fritz is always curious on something outrageous for him. That day, I've made an arrangement for cleaning up our Air Conditioner (AC). When the men were coming, Fritz's already curious with their work. He always followed me wanna see what they're doing.

So, when the men were busy with their work, Fritz asked me to stay with him watching. It's another learning for him to know that something needs to be cleaned up or repaired. I'm really proud that he's really a curious learner boy. ^^

Fun

Both of us were getting bored in Apartment that day, so I decided to ask Fritz to go to the nearest mall. Fritz was so excited and very agreed when I said we're going by 'angkot'. Just took a few minutes, we'd arrived at the mall.

We really enjoyed our time there. We went to Timezone and played for few games. Then, we moved to Centro and looked for jeans. We didn't get what we wanted. We got out and stopped by at Hoka Hoka Bento to have dinner. I just bought for Fritz and surprisingly, he could finish all the meal. Wow! It's his first time he could finish his fully meal and it's a lot!!

Really happy time with him......^^




It's his first time watching in the cinema and we chosed the full version of Cars 2. It's really his moment as that day was his 31st months.

He extremely couldn't wait to watch it and always asked again and again bout the movie. Hahaha......can't explain his expression.

During the watching, he sat on my lap and stared on the big screen till the movie's done. He said that the screen was as big as Opa's. Hahaha.....

He was soooo happy and always repeated the moments. He repeated what I said that the man who operated the movie was eating his meal as the movie wasn't on yet. Then, the light was getting dark before the movie was on. Mr Operator was playing the DVD. The screen was as big as Opa's TV. And so on.....^^



After I'd done with my private students, the clock has struck to evening. It's time for us having dinner. The nearest place we could go just Living World mall. So we went there and having a blast dinner at Fish and Co restaurant. They have promo to buy 1 meal and get 1 meal free.

We really got fun time to have dinner at this place. Thanks to Papa who really works hard for us!! ^^
