Of pre-schools dilemma and decisions...
I have been having a mix feeling between 'desperate', 'worried', 'anxious' and 'excited' lately about the idea of sending my little girl off to pre-school.
You see, technically she is 3 this year. But she's a year end baby as most of you know. And I am not 'that' familiar with age groupings and such. And one kindy teacher actually told me that its 'illegal' for her to take in a not-yet-3 years old kid into her school for fear that the authority might 'check' on them. Now that really got me confused!
Or is it because certain kindy allows 3 AND above children ONLY and others have permit for below 3. But are those below 3 more on childcare/nurseries type of school where they have playgroups and such? Am I making any sense here? hehe...I am a very confused-mummy anxious to send her kid to school i think.
The idea is for her to socialise and have more friends her age and do things her age-groups does. That's it. But WHERE to send her? and WHEN?
Is early next year sufficient?
But I want to send her now. Or is that just being too pushy?
I think she is ready because she comes to me and says that she wants to go to school. Probably what triggers her is when she saw other children playing around in a kindy nearby.
Anyways, it really bothers ( or rather hanging in my mind rite now) me, this whole kindy thing. All parents wants the best for their kid,rite? And this mummy is too...

'Follow her SPM year' is what I always say to people... eheheheh... Nothing is too early and it's never too late either... At least she'll have friends her own age to interact with in play school (or 'sekolah makan' as i call it - bcoz everytime i asked my little cousin wat he did in skool, he say 'makan')....
arina's going to school already!!
i think early next year is fine, at least she'd be properly grouped by her age :)
playskool i think - coz the grouping for pre-school methinks only starts at age 4 (and they do accept those who are not yet 4 due to birthdate being later in the year)
d'uh.. kalo nak ikut birth month - farazilah wouldn't be in our batch - being born 29th dec.
anywho - find a playskool - that allows 2 hrs of activities.. kalo masuk pre-skool - too early la kot ?
me due sen worth
thanks for the inputs guys..
i really appreciate it..
At least am not so pressured now...
:)
