Preschool : Letter D

Preschool : Letter D
Fritz is currently 38 months 1 week

We started new letter this week. Fritz loves his Dinosaur theme for this week as we had a new dinosaur toy from Hoka Hoka Bento Resto that he got when we went to MOI few days before.


Letter D and its objects

Playing with bottle caps to make "dinosaur" letters

Matching the upper with lower case. Good job!!

Matching the dinosaur shadows. He loves it so much!!

Can you find the different picture, Fritz? Yes he did!!

Making number puzzle from 11 to 20

Great in sequencing now!

Sorting the dinosaur based on upper and lower case letters

Tracing letters was a big hit!!

Tracing lines still becomes favorite.

Tracing big D

Tracing D again steps by steps

Tracing another D

Vocabulary paper and only half he knows the English
 
Practical Life
Now, he's able to do the sequencing with his big beads that I bought for him almost 2 years ago. I said to him whether he wanted to make a necklace for me with these beads. Then, he agreed with me and he started to put a bead through a string. He learnt how to be patient in lacing the beads and trying to sequence the beads based on its color. He's great indeed!!

Technology
As he loves letters recently and he knows mostly all the letters now, he shows his other eagerness in tracing the letters. He sometimes asks me to teach him how to make this and that letters. This tablet provide his eagerness and absolutely he loves to play with it. 

Miscellaneous
This Saturday, we didn't go back to our apartment, so we spent our time by enjoying this Fruit Ice. Fritz loves this kind of dish; watermelon, honeydew and syrup mixed together in his small bowl with ice of course. Yummy!!!
 
Fun
Tian is son of one's employer who being picked up by Papa everyday. Tian for few months follows her mom to her office everyday because of no nanny taking care of him. Tian, nickname of Christian, is a cheerful boy but he still can't speak clearly in his almost 3 years old. Sometimes he combines his words in Mandarin, English, Indonesian and baby talks. We're a little bit confusing when talking with him. LOL
That day was the last week for Tian following his mom to office. His Popo (grandma) would come to take care of him on that Saturday. 
Before, Fritz couldn't enjoy playing with this boy, and it's because of he's lack of sleep when we followed Papa that week. That day, Fritz has slept enough and ready to play with this boy. Both of them were busy playing during our way home. Giggling and hugging each other. Though no word both can understand, they really can play together. Boys!!
Then, Tian was really hard to say good bye with Fritz in the end of our way. We had to make a little trick for him by asking Fritz to go down first then Tian would follow Fritz. Thankfully it's succeeded. And Tian went home with cries....See you again someday, Tian. Fritz really enjoys playing with you!....
 

We spent this Sunday with Opa and Oma. We accompanied them to Depo Bangunan, to check some stuffs for renovate their house. Fritz, of course the happy boy who loves to hang out, thought that we're going to a mall. He's not really too sad as he saw a playground for kids outside. So, after few minutes we've been inside, he got bored and asked me to play in the playground. 
In this playground, he could play with some new friends. It's a great thing for me. Before, I just a little bit worry about his socialize side as he rarely meets friends. Then, when I saw that he's easily mingle with others, I'm happy for it. 

with his lovely Opa
Then we had our lunch in Pondok Kemangi. Great time with them.....

Cupcakes Orders

Cupcakes Orders

Basically, I love to make something challenging and it's very new for me. I love cupcakes and the decoration on its top. It's challenging me to make it as I was so curious on it. My first project was on Fritz's birthday. I made 12 Cars Cupcake. I designed and decorated all the cupcakes by myself.

Then, one day my best friend, Emil, asked me whether I could make cupcakes for her school project class. She's one of Primary school teacher in HighScope, Kelapa Gading. She has a project with her pupils to sell cupcakes. 

To be honest, I didn't ready yet to have my cupcakes out of public. It's really just for my home project and I didn't want to sell it. However, I took that challenge for me, how dare I "throw" my cupcakes out of my security lines. 

I made 10 decorations for her; Hello Kitty, Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Angry Birds (Red, Black, Blue, Yellow, Green and Pig) and Ball Designs. All in 2D versions. 

After waiting for few weeks approval from her (she's still confused whether she wanted me or not to deal with her projects), finally she announced that she wanted me to make the cupcakes. 

She did the [pre]order with the consumers, then she gave me the lists. Can you guess how many cupcakes should I do? 74 cupcakes!!!!! Gosssshhh!!!!!

I tied my head on Monday to begin the project. 2 days in a row I deal with the cakes and the decoration. I'd faced up and down feeling bout the cakes. Some cakes didn't success and some decorations were bad as I'm not a professional on it. 

Finally I made it!! I learnt and I did it on cupcakes. The projects are done and some of my friends were amazed with me. Thanks God for your kindness!! I learnt how to deal with the cupcakes and have some friends supporting me behind. 

I MADE IT!!!!!!!!! :) :) :)

Preschool : Letter C

Preschool : Letter C
Fritz is currently 37 months 3 weeks

This week we learned Letter C. Fritz is still enthusiast learning letter. And we didn't do much except having fun on Thursday as we had public holiday and on Sunday. I didn't take any photos of his activities the rest of the week.

Day 1

This week we started by introducing him letter C.
Then, the objects of letter C that he mostly knows best. Good, son!
Tracing nowadays became unpopular again as he didn't do very nice and I sometimes complained on it. Then, he refused to continue it again.
 
Searching upper and lower case of letter C in Alphabet Parade worksheet.
We continued by doing the puzzle.
Sequencing the caterpillar. He's getting good on it.
Day 2
For the second day, we just do the tracing and ended by he didn't want to continue the activity. 

Day 3
 
Showing him some objects related to the letter C and he could mention it mostly. Yay!!


 
Counting the caterpillar on the leave. 

Tracing the shape that he knows it well.

And the last one was doing finger painting on caterpillar.

 Fun
Finally Fritz wanted to go inside the pool again!! yaaaayyyyy!!
It's really a big moment for us that he's eager to go back to pool. He even insisted to go quickly there. 
So after we wrapped the goodie bags for Sunday, we hurried to Tante Merry's Apartment. Then, Fritz really couldn't wait to go to the pool. 
When we arrived, he couldn't wait again to go inside his wheel float. Few minutes after that, he asked me to go out. LOL!! 
  Playing with Cher 

I took almost half an hour to put him inside the pool; adult and children pool. Though he refused to go inside again after that, probably because of his sleepiness, I still forced him to swim together with him. 
I totally proud of him against his fear in swimming today!!!

Fritz was learning how to share and care with others unlucky kids with Mama's community. However, he's not really like the place as he's felt tired already. So he became so cranky and he got his nose bleeding because of the hot air. He said he wanted to go to the mall which placed next to this place many times. Then, we granted and he went with Papa.
He's busy playing with Michelle, the other child who joined with it. Both were busy each other. The most of all, we're so happy seeing Fritz could socialize with everyone. That's what I need. :)
