after registration, we got our food stub (free) and proceeded to the function room for the different activities.

we did the beads activity first. miss k initially wanted to eat the beads lol! but she got the drift and chose the beads to be threaded for a bracelet or necklace.

she listens to teacher on what to do next

she loved the drum (she loved this in kindermusik, too!)

and made eye contact with her classmates

and teacher too! the teacher actually observed that miss k actually listens and does the required actions thereafter. so proud!

these payong guys were on stand by in case someone didn’t want to expose himself/herself to the sun (but you’re at an outdoor pool, so you’ll get some sun anyway. weird.)

last activity was jiggles the balloon lady who showed us how to make balloon figures (we learned how to make a dog and a swan). this was the coolest activity that afternoon.DSCN9868 DSCN9869
