Playdates with Sri and Raghav today after school!
Keane was elated to go to Explorerkid again!
Keane is, by nature, a meticulous boy. I thought it'd do him good if he goes there often.
I read somewhere to respect strong dislikes and fears in kids, and hence I reflected on the way I reacted when Keane refuses to play slide.
In fact, Keane started to refrain from playing slide after he witnessed a boy fell from the slide and suffered cut lips.I reminded myself not to rush him.
Thanks to Sri, Keane explored the top of the mega playground, and after a few times, he's willing to do it on his own! Sri also slided down with Keane in her arms for a total of 3 times.
Although Keane is still reluctant and afraid of sliding on his own, I confident that it's just a matter of time that he will do it. Meanwhile, I must not insist or force it on him. It will only backfire!
Keane and I sat the ferris wheel after that.
I started to feel fear... It seems that as I grew older, I beginning to fear heights.
I was in fact chanting in my heart as I sat in the ferris wheel... It's ironic that I used to play slides, roller coasters etc when I was young... but now, I wouldn't even want to try them...
We also went to NTUC to buy bread, nutella and drinks as our stomachs were growling!
And we ended up having a "picnic" by the Ferris wheel!
Sat the bumble car with Keane.
Promised him that last week!
The staff took the pictures for us.
While waiting for Sri and Raghav to arrive, Keane played on his own.
