Mummy took leave today and brought Janelle for speech and drama trial lesson at Stage and Such. This trial lesson was organised by one of the mummies in Singapore Motherhood Forum (March 2009 Mums). Thanks the mummy for the hard work to source for it!
Stage and Such is located at The Central, Soho 1. Before the lesson starts at 2pm, a few Mummies (including my Mummy and Auntie Lynda) had arranged to meet up for lunch at The Central, Burger King @ 12.30pm. At about 11am+, Mummy and Janelle set off to pick up Auntie Lynda and Hony Yi. We reached The Central at about 12.15pm. It's our first meeting up with forum mummies. We had never seen the Mummies and Babies before! Mummy said that it wasn't difficult to identify those mummies as it's rather rare to find mummies carrying babies go shopping on a weekday! And some more the location is at The Central! That's mummy's logic!
After lunch, mummies proceed to the school located on the 5th floor. It was a nice and quiet environment! There's even jacuzzi, swimming pool and gym etc located there! The teacher said that if Mummy signed up as member, we are able to use the facilities there! Even can have birthday bash over there!
Before the lesson starts, all babies are being placed on the floor mat to socialise and play around first. And during this, Janelle had a "kiss" from Hong Yi when socialising! Omg! After 15 mins or so, lesson start with singing of "Hello" song! After singing song, teacher read a story (The huge hungry caterpillar) to all babies! Follow by, it's hear, touch and feel session! This is the session which can make some mummies don't really like it. But my mummy felt that should just let Janelle touch whatever the teacher introduced. First was shaking of uncooked rice in a container. This doesn't seems to attract Janelle much. After 5 mins, the 2nd item was to let baby touch whipped cream! Last on the item was to play coloured ice (made from fruit colouring) and "paint" it on a paper! Janelle enjoyed painting the most! Most of the mummies removed babies clothes in order not to dirty the clothes! As Janelle enjoyed this item the most, she left a lot of clour stain on her hand, face and legs! Before the lesson ends, we had a singing songs session again. After the lesson, teacher asked mummy whether will she be interested to sign up for package. Mummy felt that Janelle is still a bit too young to attend it cause Janelle doesn't really enjoyed the story telling session and singing song session. Maybe when Janlle a few months down the road will be a better time to enroll Janelle for it.
After the lesson, Janelle was very tired. Janelle had a short nap. Mummy and Auntie Lynda decided to bring Janelle and Hong Yi their office to visit their colleague caused they didn't see Janelle and Hong Yi for a long time! We stayed there for about 30 mins caused Janelle and Hong Yi were tired from the lesson and started to get cranky! About 4pm+, Mummy sent Auntie Lynda and Hong Yi go home. After that, Mummy didn't bring Janelle home straight away! Mummy still brought Janelle to Lilian Yi Yi house to collect something. Mummy still stayed there and chit chat with grand auntie till about 6pm then bring Janelle home. It was a long and tiring day for Janelle! Janelle fell asleep once Janelle reached home!
