Outdoor Excursion

I had decided to think out of the box. Learning don't confine on workbook alone. Learning is all around us. Previously, I can concentrate and have one to one time with my eldest daughter while my baby took her afternoon nap. As my second daughter grow, she skip her afternoon nap and need a lot of attention from me.

I have decided to bring the girls for an outdoor excursion. It's not typical me of going outdoor without planning what to do. I go ahead with no end in mind and let the girls lead me. We started having lunch under a hut. It was a windy day. I brought along their chalk and crayon with a roll of paper. The girls started with drawing. It was really fun to see them sharing and communicating. One using body language and the other talking. The younger one will 'copy' her 'jie jie' in anything. I get to have a quiet lunch while the girls busy with their drawing.

They continue playing at playground. I end up drawing a hop scotch on the sand. We play hop scotch for a while. Then, we numbered the same hop scotch and we had Maths game - addition and subtraction. We will put the little one into the box with the right answer from the addition and subtraction game. The young one will learn to recognize the number. It was really fun. We played word game too. We look around and find objects start with letter A to Z. We learn new words from each other. It was a fun 2 hours.
