小兒3歲, 對很多事物很好奇, 經常發問. 亦很用心去學. 但唔喜歡上幼稚園, 因為他不喜歡坐定定聽學, 很想周圍看, 自行周圍探索. 只有心機看喜歡的圖書. 沒有興趣做那些對剪剪貼貼/填色等..?! 我想他會否讀國際kindergrten 會好d? d 本地幼稚園成日都話活動教學, 又有幾多間做到?

My experience is that at the lower kindergarten level, both local and international kindergartens are equally interesting for a 3-5 y old kid. Both offer enough of "fun activities" to stimulate young children. However, most local kindergartens might become more demanding on academic works as kids move to K3. Don't forget lots of international kindergartens do not have "K3", the "K3" belongs to the primary section often called foundation or prep year.
My children are in local and international kindergartens in HK Island, that's my personal observation. When my younger moved from Tutor Time to a so regarded famous local kindergarten, it took a little time to adjust as he was used to be very free at Tutor Time in the classroom, while the local kindergarten requires kids to sit still more, however he has lots of funs with the very interesting activities offered at the local kindergarten.

國際幼稚園都會有時段是要小朋友坐定定，唔係任小朋友周圍行，呢個係學習課堂秩序，和學懂 follow instructions 的過程。你小朋友只剛剛上 k1，可能未習慣在學校群體要守秩序，另外專注力亦可能未夠成熟。不用太快下定論，你小朋友的情形，很多小朋友都會有，慢慢就學會遵守課室規舉，我不認為是本地幼稚園 vs 國際幼稚園的問題。其實國際幼稚園並不是如很多人想像的 free，無王管，任小朋友點都得；其實一樣很有規率，定時有 story time，坐定定聽故事，或做做手工，等等；當然，國際學校老師比例較多，每班學生人數少，小朋友得到的 attention 會不同，老師普遍亦較有耐性。

好, 一於睇定D.

不過我覺得傳統小學/中學都係比較悶, 一日坐到黑, 會唔會有D 本地學校比較互動? 直資係米好D?

Yes, agreed. My boy is attending PG at an international kinder, the 2.5 hour has three circle times which required students sit down to listen to music, stories, etc.
They have discipline and control, too.

I think it has a lot to do with your child's temperment. I've been reading up lately and the books i read all agree that temperment in certain ways are in born.

Easy babies turns out to be easy going kids which turns into mild adults.
Slow to warm up babies turns out to be shy kids which turns into introverted adults.
Active babies turns out to be kids who can't sit down which turns into action packed adults.

Of course we will and should balance out their temperment a bit, encourage them to get out of their box, learn about how the rules of the world work and how to socialize with others, but accept our kids as they are at the same time.

My son is super active too and i am learning to give him stricter rules at home as he is entering K1 (in a Montessori school). No matter where they go to kindergarten, they must learn to follow instruction and be still while the teacher is teaching. There is always a time for exploration and socialization, but they must learn self-control and wisdom above all else.
