Kindy Hunter: Part 2

Rindunya nak menulis! Sungguh! Ok tak payah lah nak intro sangat. Fokus.

Ketiga² kindy yang aku survey, each has their own pros & cons. No ideal kindy. Pening kepala jadinya. My plan is to send Honey to the kindy for half day only. After the class has finished, Honey will be transferred to her current day care.

Ar Rayyan: We love the environment. It's located at a 2-storey bungalow house, with spacious outdoor space. However, I'm not satisfied with the syllabus. Iqra' is not part of the syllabus. They do offer the the subject but only after the class. Then, for students under a half day program, during school holidays, no half-day day care for them.

Dzul Iman: It has separate branches for 4yo & above. Hence, when Iman turns 4yo & Honey is 6yo, they still can't go to the same kindy. For 4yo, it's located at 1-storey semi-D house while for 5 & 6yo, it's located at 2-storey semi-D house. I don't really like both locations. Both areas seem a bit compact that I feel I might have a problem to park my car in order to drop or pick up the kid. The syllabus & environment are ok. My neighbour sends their kid here & they're satisfied with her progress.

Little Caliph: The branch here is new. Hence, the teachers might be new with new setup. It's located at the 1st floor of a shoplot. So there'll be no outdoor space. However, I like the location which is near to Honey's day care. Even it's located at shoplots area, the area is not busy. No problem to park cars. The syllabus is ok & I think TLC program is already well established since it has many kindergartens under the program.

The annual & monthly fees for all the kindergartens are more or less the same. The opening hours for half-day program are almost thr same too. So these won't be the factor for my selection.

Actually, I did survey 1 more kindy because I received the pamphlet inside the post box. I went there alone. The fee I'd say significantly cheaper compare to those 3 kindergartens. The environment is ok. However, I sticked to those 3 as my options.

Just like 'House Hunter' TV series, I need to eliminate 1 1st. Hmmm, after thinking thoroughly, I eliminate Ar Rayyan from my option due to least attractive syllabus & no day care for half day programme during school holidays.

Ok, next episode I'll reveal my choice ;).

Hhh...

Haihh... Can I update this blog just to sigh... Haihh... Not that I have a big problem rite now but I'm afraid that the problem might be beyond my control. Ya Allah, please give me strength & patience. Please ease the path.

I'd luv to write about 2014. So many things have happened. But I guess, I should juz forget writing about it since there are so many other things to write that maybe left unwritten after all. To sum year 2014 in 1 word - unpredictable.

For 2015, I think the keyword would be transition.

Growing Up

Tetiba teringat suatu ketika di mana apabila keluar rumah, Honey akan membawa anak patung bersama. Bukan setakat 1, kadang² 3 sekali dibawanya. Penuh tempat duduk belakang dengan anak patung. Tapi ni bukan anak patung yang macam Barbie tu, more to teddy bear actually or soft dolls. Biasanya yang akan dibawa ialah Minnie, Bear & Bean. Ya, itu nama² yang dipanggil. I don't have the photo though. Too lazy to go upstairs.

Biasanya kami keluar rumah untuk ke taman permainan & makan. Bila nak pergi makan, Honey nak bawa anak² patungnya bersama. Kami hanya akan membenarkan 1 sahaja. Anak patung tu akan duduk di kerusi juga.

Satu hari tu kami ke KFC Serdang. Ya, jauh kami pergi untuk makan KFC, semata-mata sebab malas nak masuk shopping mall. Hari tu, Minnie makan bersama kami. Masa nak balik, ketika dalam kereta, tiba² Honey dok bising "Ni,  ni,  ni...". Mungkin kerana kekenyangan, kami lambat picked up apa yang cuba disampaikan oleh Honey. Suddenly, I was like, "Minnie!".  Tergesa² lah JD keluar dari kereta & masuk semula ke KFC. Walau bagaimanapun, Minnie tidak dijumpai. Honey dah sedih dah bila tau Minnie tak ada.

Rupa²nya Minnie ada dalam handbag aku. Mesti masa masukkan Minnie dalam handbag, aku dalam mode auto-pilot. Ya lah, Honey tau bawak je makan sekali, tapi masa balik tak peduli pun. Aku ni lah tukang kutip. Nasib baik ada handbag besar yang boleh muat.

Lucu pula bila teringat balik. Now Honey mungkin dah lupa pada Bear, Bean, Jubbi & Minnie. Tiada lagi anak patung makan bersama² kami.

One day, it'll come the day Honey stop requesting me to lie next to her & cuddle her when she wants to sleep. There'll be the day no more spending the evening at a playground or swimming pool. Now I feel it. Don't grow up too fast, dear. But, I'm certainly looking forward for the day Honey stop wearing diapers.
