"Salam Teacher Effa. Good news! Wafeeq will start kindergarten this April. Alhamdulillah, he is no longer afraid of going to school. Thank you!"
Wafeeq was once enrolled to a kindergarten near his house. But it only lasted for a few days. He was not cooperating and was not happy there. The mother called me up and asked for my opinion.
I suggested her to come for our ALIMKids Playgroup trial session. During the session, he refused to participate in some of the activities. Since I already knew of his situation, I did not force or push him to participate. I let him explore by himself and let him feel comfortable to be in the class. After the 1st session, he wanted to attend the next class. So, the mother decided to enroll him and his sister in my playgroup.
Alhamdulillah he improved a lot! And this is the latest update from his mother. This is what we want.
Playgroups are not just about learning "academic" skills, but more importantly they learn social skills and this builds up their self-confidence. Playgroups allow the children to explore their interest in a way that is fun and engaging. Having the mother along also helps them feel secure and provides the mother an exclusive bonding time with the child.
Start with enrolling the children into ALIMKids Playgroup, then, insya Allah, the child will have no fear of going to kindergarten.
Love,
Teacher Effa
ALIMKids Playgroup Instructor
