my son is 25months, he will go to N1 in August for half day. Now he cannot talk only say a few words. It seems like he's very much behind other 2 yr old. The reason i send him to school is
I think it is good for BB to start schooling at 2. Like my BB, she is 2.1 now and she will go to nursery in Aug (whole day). She is so eager to learn and to play with other BB but she is our only child at home.
The main point is to choose a nursery with high quality. It does not mean you need to pay more for tuition fee but the teachers are nicer more more caring and the activites are more meaningful.
my son is 2yrs3months and he start pre-nursery on April, he only cried for 3 days, now he really enjoy to go to school and very happy in the school. He likes to dance, sing and do the art in school, sometimes he feels boring at home even he has brother to play w him, i don't want to let him watch the tv all the time so it is better to let him learn something and spend some times in school.
My son reached 2 years old on Feb. and i send him to N1 on March even though I have a maid and my mother to look after him.
My reason is
1. They spoil my son
2. They don't know how to teach him tal ...
That's exactly why I let my son go to school on his birthday. The maid will spoil him....
In the school he learn a lot, like using chopsticks when he's only 3yrs old. Will not picky on food because teacher ask him to eat all the food school provide. My son never drink milk other than his own brand and will vomit if he sip that. But the teacher encourage him to try finally he can drink up one whole cup, the teacher taken a photo of him drinking and write down on his report to praise him.
N1 is actually a whole day playgroup much better than stay at home with the maid and watch TV.
I sent my daughter to Nusery when she was 2 yrs old as well... At start it is a bit cruel to her for going to school so many hours.. but she get used to it slowly...
my daughter cannot talk as well when she first go to school.. but now she gets better..
i also sent my daughter to N1 when she was 2yr old. She cried for 1 month and now after 6 months, she enjoyed it v much. And when she went to interview, the teachers can tell the difference.
I think that is not a problem at all, as long as the school is clean, teachers are nice and love children, then you won't be worry too much while you at work.....
my son start going to school at 1 and half yr old, 3 days per week, only one hour to train him more socialize with people, at least he stop crying while the strangers get close to him... then after that, even he go to pre-nursery, kindergarten never cry a bit (only him never cry in class)..
