It is a well programmed outing, as in, there are breakfast, lesson (depends on the theme of the month), story telling, and several hands-on activities, and it is conducted in mandarin, once every month. What is more attractive about the outing is, venue usually outdoor, lush of green and breeze of fresh air, probably lots of perspiring for participants too. Most learning materials are provided, and each family is asked to bring food to share with others. So, here we were for the 4th amazing event of Jungle Classroom (Johor Bahru), for the first time!
I will let the pictures tell the story of this meaningful event we joined last Sunday.

| She was kind of shy to meet new friends & into new setting, hence snapping around to calm herself. |

| After breakfast, kids were asked to gather in front of Anna (blue shirt at the left corner of the picture) and started the lesson about "WIND". |
SC and I were just sit back and enjoy the breeze=).
 |
| Story time! Looks like Little Bomber lost focus here... |
 |
| After learnt about wind and feathers, fan, blowing and what not, kids started to making bubble and experiment right away! |
 |
| It took us a bit longer than others to bring the kite up in the sky... |
 |
| But, effort was well pay-off. Finally the kite was soaring:). |

So, yes, we are look forward to join for the future events, if time permitted=). Though I have to wake up early at 5am to prepare egg sandwiches.

This sounds very interesting! Thanks for sharing! JB is one of our regular hangouts so I will definitely check it out. :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope you and your family will enjoy it as much as we did:).
DeleteWelcome Jayne, btw^^.
Thanks for sharing! Never occurred to me to go across the causeway for an educational trip! Do you think the programme is suitable for younger kids, did your younger girl understood what was happening?
ReplyDeletei think the program is more suitable for preschooler and above. my younger girl enjoyed it because of her elder sister, in my opinion. She ran wild in the field or admiring the kites occasionally by her self though:).
DeleteI wish they had a Jungle Classroom here!
ReplyDeleteI wish so too... I'm not sure if I could wake up at 5+ once a month for this activity. Anyway, hmm... let me think of a way...
ReplyDeletebtw, the kite was bought by you previously. I was so glad that prove that kite is such a timeless toy=).
