U mean activities/classes on a daily basis, or just for jun hols/weekn?
Your ds never go pre-nursery?
My dd attended PCF pre-N @ 2yrs... everyday play blocks/sing/eat...anyway it's less than 2hrs each day in the afternoon. Else is sleep n sleep... play toys @ home :)
Still 2 young to pack the day with activities bah...
Now attending Nursery @ 3 yrs... the PCF will send brochure on jun hols enrichment... e.g cook/make sandwich, salad/draw/speech classes, etc....DW plans to sign up the make sandwich, salad class...

Daddy D, is art class (hands on handicraft). walking distance from my house :)
quite like it cos it's taught by qualified art teachers, price is reasonable and it's near my place. timing is also good (weekday evenings n weekends) cos after work so can accompany my boy go for classes.

my boy attend childcare, whole day filled with meaningful activities (better than stay home n play the whole day, end up nvr learn anything cos we r too busy to teach him). sing, lessons, etc etc :)

depends on which childcare. i surveyed more than 15 childcare ard my area n my parent's area before i decided on the current one.

factors i took into consideration:
- preventive measures for HFMD
- use of a/c at CC (more a/c means virus/bacteria will pass easily cos no ventilation)
- no of students in each class n no of students in entire centre
- attitude of teachers
- menu at school

their preventive measures r very good. my boy so far kena HFMD once, but it's not cause of school (he's e only one at school), it's cos of church. and i quarantined my boy very quickly once we noticed. and the school immediately close the school on the next day which happen to be saturday and do a thorough scrub down jus cos of 1 student who got HFMD but had not gone to school ever since he started showing symptoms.

tt's wot i would call efficient n effective. and my boy doesn't realli get sick all the time. onli every 2-3 mths got slight flu. so far he onli kena once very bad flu (cos i pass to him). the school has quite a strict policy on sick children. if see doc, then must get MC and child can onli return to school after MC expire. if HFMD, doc must check again n give letter stating child is safe to return to school.

with such policies n control measures, i'm assured my child is protected to their best ability :)

Ya... see fr other forum saying its nt bad, but my only concern abt tis cc is its fully air condition, worried child might fall sick more easily.

Wondering any parent's kid send them to air con cc? Do they fall sick more easily?
