Frog Prince

I brought Rachel to her weekly Speech & Drama class at LoveKids. This was her 3rd lesson.
I was as curious as she was on what today's theme will be and it turned out to be Frog Prince.

As usual, Rachel insisted that I go into the classroom with her and I thought that I will just sit in for a while. If she's comfortable in there, I will leave the class. Jack's mummy (Christina) accompanied Jack in the class too.

Rachel was more at ease today. I guess it's because I reassured her that I'll be around. She actually wanted to dress up as a character in the drama - The Queen. So I put on her crown and gown. :)

Halfway through the class, Grace slipped on the lilypad and fell. (She was running about freely in class.) She hurt her right cheek and started crying for her mummy. Teacher Loretta then brought her out to wash up and look for her dad at the same time. Not too long later, Grace came back into the class with all smiles again. I thought she was a very brave girl.

Mrs Nonis carried on the story and all the children participated in the drama. Jack was the King, Rachel, the Queen, Grace and Marion were the Princesses and Matthew was the Frog Prince. Mrs Nonis wanted some pictures taken of the class so Christina and I were ducking away so that we wont be in the photos as this was supposed to be a class for the kids. :)

I can see that Rachel is getting more comfortable with the class and Mrs Nonis said that she will be ready to join in the class all by herself next week. I hope that this weekly enrichment class will prepare her for nursery classes next year.

Oh Where, Oh Where
Has My Princess Gone?
Oh Where, Oh Where
Can She Be?

With Love From Her
Will Break The Spell
Oh Where, Oh Where
Can She Be?
