My daughter has got an offer in the coming Aug. Since she is a small b born in Dec, her application for the prenursery was rejected last year. I would like to find her some classes preferably full day so that she can get use to school environment and potty training in these few months. Any suggestion? Needs to be in Shatin to Tai Po so that I can be responsible for the transport because I think it is a bit hard to find school bus in the middle of school year. Thank you for any suggestion!

係呀！佢八月會讀HLYIS nursery. 但學校有prenursery 俾大仔,即一月出世，我驚我囡因係細囡又冇返過任何學校除playgroup, 會同返過prenursery 既有更大分別,所以想佢有適應班

恭喜晒，我記得你之前是想報HLY的

其實你也不用太擔心你的小朋友會不適應，因為學校的老師都很有耐性，very well qualified, 佢地會幫到你的小朋友適應到的，不會有問題。如果你真的很想小朋友無論如何都上一上預備班，而你又找不到正式幼稚園的pn插班，我有在Tai Po的選擇可能提供比你，如有意可以PM我。

我冇刻意做大b或細b,我今年兩樣都有報,但既然心儀既學校收,咁點解要拖多一年,而且國際學校係teach according to abilities not age. 所以更覺得佢收乜就讀乜

It's an interesting question----
Schooling starts from primary school, kids learn the PRIMARY & PRINCIPLED stuff from this point; then kindergarten is introduced as PRE-SCHOOL, that means preparation for the formal schooling.
And then pre-nursery: preparation for the kindergarten;
then playgroup: prepartation for the pre-nursery;
Hahaha, that's why our kids are exhausted in the very beginning!

TAKE IT EASY, moms! Why don't you ask a simple question on raising kid?? No matter which month he was born, right?

I think there is some misunderstanding. I am not tiger mom. The fact is my daughter will be the smallest in the class and she is the only child at home. Some of her classmates will have started the school 8 months before her. Therefore it is natural that I am worried about social adaptation and personal development. I am not concerned about academic performance. I just hope she can feel comfortable in going to school in a gradual manner. Sorry but I can't see what is wrong. Helping her to adjust to school life is an important part in raising a kid, isn't it?

No matter what, your kid will experience separation and anxiety in the beginning.
Go to playground instead of playgroup, talk to him with your heart instead of outsourcing tutor, he will grow healthily with your companion. Teachers are experienced to handle the adaption of small kids. Enjoy the beginning in August!
That will be unforgettable.

唔係個個送小朋友去playgroup或預備班就等於係迫佢提早長大提早學習。相信這裡每個父母都是愛錫子女，否則怎會花咁多時間research學校，但每個小孩子都是不同的個體，所以只有自己的父母最清楚自己孩子的需要。

好似比女兒上playgroup, 是因為女兒從小已十分外向，很喜歡和“外人”互動（大人小朋友一樣喜歡），帶佢去playground和自己在家同佢玩根本滿足唔到佢。之後因回港後visa問題不能即時入學，所以讀一些預備班，有時打風落雨，病了冇得返，佢會喊到傻！一直以來返學大過天，就算Ocean Park Disneyland呢d都要行埋一邊。

不熟悉我和女兒的人好易標签我是要她嬴在起跑線，但熟悉我女兒的人就明白這是因為她有這需要。

樓主，祝你早日可揾到合適的course比你女兒。

Go to playground ...

Actually I agree with Radiomama.

Sending her to a playgroup at this stage for your said purpose doesn't really help her adjust.  I would rather view it as bringing forward the test of separation anxiety and realizing in a playgroup rather than the actual kindergarten.

Nevertheless I do understand and agree that parents' roles are to help their kids,so what I think is best is this.

1.  Make some toddler friends for your child from your playground at home or in your neighborhood.
2.  Let the kids meet regularly to get used to parallel play.  Some kids with siblings learn to interact earlier so best if you can mingle with those.
3.  Help and encourage your child to play with other kids or even just watch them play at first.
4.  Gradually let her try play by herself with other kids.  She will wander back to you every 2 mins but responds to what she tells you welcomingly and encourage her to go back for more fun.
5. Praise her a lot for her having fun with peers.

Yes that's a lot of time and effort.  But I would rather go through this and train her slowly but steadily than pushing her to a playgroup and having to go through wails and tantrums at the classroom door.

There are two ways to learn to be independent in school.  The hard way that the kids doubt everyday that she is being abandoned. Or the mild way, when the kid feels comfortable to choose to leave the parent for other activities for a while.

Lying to a kid that Mommy is just going to the bathroom DOES NOT WORK!

A teacher in PN did that to my daughter during the first day thinking kids are easily fooled if you give them toys for distraction.  I can tell you that KIDS nowadays are soooooooo smart, they won't fall for it and would resent that evil lying teacher for as long as they live.  My kid had to change to another class after that!

I personally don't think those playgroups have any special formula in helping kids learn to separate.  I believe you are just paying for someone to watch your kid while she cries herself away.

Also, I think your situation is not that worrying at all. That's. Because most of her classmates would already have adapted to school life and the teachers could spare much more time in helping your kid adjust.

When my bb started PN, the whole class, all 30 kids were crying at the same time

Some went in not crying and then decided to empathize with the others and joined in the choir, crying for no reason at all.

As a mommy of a 4 year old, my short experience tells me that outside classes do no magic in teaching our kids. All it does, is provide a place and some other kids to meet regularly and do some activities together. Classmates in my daughters class who has been to art classes for two years can't draw a thing!
Another who has been to phonics class for a year can't read a sentence!

On the other hand, kids who draw leisurely with parents can create a picture, and kids who reads books with parents can read a book independently despite not knowing the official sound of "oe" and "ck".

But if you read carefully, you can see Gentoomama does not aim to let her kid to learn "things" at PN, she wants her daughter to socialize with other kids at an earlier stage only

ek 真係好多 "專家"，個個以為自己個套就最 work
我有兩個仔女，一個男一個女，兩個不同性格
教了兩個，我都唔會亂話，同我教小朋友方法不同就不可行
做家長都係邊做邊學，唔可以一本通書睇到老
黎 ek 真係要好清醒，唔係聽埋聽埋 d "專家" 貼士，隨時唔怪獸都變怪獸

唔好諗到咁複雜啦
小朋友去下 playgroup，可以玩又可以識朋友仔，有乜問題？
另一方面，唔去亦得
我覺得每個人家庭狀況唔同，唔可能得一套方式
唔好假設以為個個比小朋友去 playgroup 都係想 "學野"

Yeah thanks for reminding, maybe I have gone on too far with my own views. Let's hope someone can help refer her to a playgroup that helps her kid with social adaptation and potty training then.

回覆：Preparation for small B

Actually I welcomed advice from all who spoke here. Picture has given me some very invaluable experience and methods. I will definitely try some. However it is very hard to explain in details of our own kids when we want to seek some advice. Take mine as an example, I would say as a parent, my husband and I have already tried every effort after work to groom her development. Even though she is the only child, she is not too shy or too introvert because we tried to take her to socialise with different people. However, there are still things that we really can't do. First we are both working and so time constrain is still a problem especially like inviting kids to play together. Secondly, I am advanced age mother and so our friends' kid are usually much older. I think there are some reasons and benefits to kids behind for having N class before K1 and now my kids can't attend N class simply because they are so full nowadays . So I still can't understand why there is problem when I ask people whether they know some vacancies in other schools. Does it mean that every mother who sent their kid to N class are too anxious or worried? Of course I will try potty training at home. However, the kindergarten emphasized that she must complete the training before K1 and my friends told me kids learn this more easily and efficiently in N class because kids copy each other's behaviour. This is one of the many reasons in addition to socialisation that I would think N class may help. At least this is not a bad idea. Why others seem so agitated for this idea?
I do not mean to find a place to just push my kid there and ignore her needs. I am just seeking for advice from different aspects to see what can help her to make life and transitions easier and happier. I think if a mom simply neglects her children, she won't even bother to ask in EK.
Sometimes I do feel a lot of judgement here. 包容nowadays become a negative term. Why can't we really try to understand others more and help?
