Wen Yi turns four last Dec, and this is also his last birthday in LV :) We just woke up, pardon the grumpy look Cars upfront And a huff, and a puff, and I blow you down ! We are going to miss parties in LV :) Daddy will also miss taking photos of cute kiddos !
Last Thu, Yi joins Xin at their new preschool. However, Xin broke down crying once she realised Daddy cannot accompany her today. It took some effort from the teachers to calm her down.
On the other hand, Wen Yi was reluctant to leave Daddy, but he still followed teacher to his class. He is the new boy in the class, and we look forward to him making new friends.
Fortunately, everything is back to normal on Friday, we hope kids have finally settle down in their new school. New teachers, new friends, new environment, this is a BIG change for the kids. Daddy had to hide in one corner to play paparazzi, to see how the kids go through their normal routine. School bus is something new for the kids too.
One thing is sure, kids will always be beaming when they spot Mummy waiting at our bustop. Back to their comfort zone again.
Starting our family blog was the best decision to capture our memories, just look at how she has grown over the years. We select some of her Best videos below, if you need more, click on Baby.Xin tag.

2012 school reopens. You will see all parents blogging about their kids in new schools, how can we be different :p Wen Kang is in Primary school PM class, alas he will not meet his bigger bro in Pri 3. By 2013, Nan Chiau will be single session, ie less logistic issues for us. The two smaller ones are also in their new schools. For this week, Mummy and Daddy have to look after the kids separately during orientation. Daddy brings Xin and Yi to pre-school, while Mummy brings Kang to Primary 1.
So far, our little girl is coping very well in school. She is playing, singing and eating a lot. Meanwhile, Kang still refuse to share with us his school life. Well, at least he is not resisting the change of environment. We only notice he is very tired after school :p
Be Brave Kang and Xin, we will always support you ! When Yi joins his sis, more gossips will come your way.
Meanwhile, checkout what cute little Wen Xin is doing in school. She is going to school on her own already !
Traditionally, Dec is the month of parties for us. Beside having two boys' whose birthday falls in Dec, everyone is in the mood to celebrate and binge keke :) Teacher M gave a crash course on the significance of Christmas. Christmas party will not be complete with icons like Santa Claus and Santarina, and Ruldolph Reindeer ! No prize for guessing who is hohoh0 Santa :) Before the party starts, kids waiting in anticipation, and enjoying their own bantering. Parents turn up in force to support LV and their kids :) With so much food to go around, nobody should be hungry. You can be faulted for being greedy keke :p Full of activities at every corner, food and handicraft. Busy busy teachers, they are happy when kids are smiling :) Kids are HAPPY ! Who would not be? Plenty of food, gifts, and toys and entertainment! Our food and cookies taste best when we do it ourselves. Nevermind if the chocolate does not look nice, or if someone forget to wash hand, Parents will love it ! (forced smile) All thanks to our teachers :) Kids playing Light Saber in their secret room. Luke SkyWalker would feel at home here. Teachers and cute kiddos :) Oh no, someone is so tired and decide to take a nap :) We end the party with gift exchanges, every kid went home beaming. Thank you LV for organising this party. We had a lot of fun !
Video : Let us sing together !
Come 2012, our kids will be changing to another school, we are sure they are going to miss LV :(
If you need more party photos, hop over to our Santa album :p
Two Fridays ago, Learning Vision (LV) celebrated their K2 Graduation at Republic Poly. This is Boon Kang's D-Day, his final performance before going to Primary school.
Outside the audithorium, LV preschools all over Singapore showcase their artworks.
We will be treated to Lion King Musical today ( tickets are not free :p ). Individual schools will take turn to role-play the casts. Kang will be Zebra :)
We start off with each school parading their K2 kids, take a bow K2s, you are going to graduate after six years in preschool !
Concert 's theme for today is Zimba (why not Simba? ) Grassland, love the grass on the student's head !
Colourful props and costumes entertain parents, kids and teachers have put in a lot of effort.
In short, the Lion King story. Majestic animals gather, love all the creative costumes (we even spotted elephant and cheetahs !). LV really bring out the African savanna ! At the end of the concert, who cares it is Simba or Zimba, we thoroughly enjoy the show. Even Boon Yee and Boon Xin behave themselves throughout the entire concert !
Zimba with his baby, as we watch the Golden sun rise, so will a new era descend :)
Grand Finale, that's it for K2 graduation ceremony. After all the countless hours of rehearsals and sweat, one final farewell.
Video : Watch Kang's Zebra somersault at 15s :)
A burst of colour and enthusiasm as kids line up in their costumes.
Post concert celebration. Every parent and teacher are proud of the kids. Boon Kang's buddies and fellow "animal" friends keke. Wishing everyone a successful career in Primary 1 :p
Group photo with our teachers.
Dear Teachers, we will be missing you. Thank you for taking care of us, and bearing with our tantrums. We would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation to the teachers, for nurturing our kids.
