We are at the half term

So we made it to school's half term!

In UK kids go to preschool and then school from about age of 3. 

Egg just turned 4 and having him all day at school was terrifying. He is too little, too not talking and finds it hard around other children... or so I thought!

It has been just few weeks in big school and he already has a best friend Amelia. We didn't know her before. When she was ill he missed her and when she did return after two days he run up to give her a hug and knocked and him self down. 

He also has other friends and interacts brilliantly with them. Other kind find his speech therapy interesting and help him with these.  

All ready for elements in daddy’s hat 

He loves the after-school club he goes to, I mean I would as well, it's just bunch of kids all ages from school playing together and Egg been always curious about big kids. The gentleman in change of the club says its very interesting to see how big kids take care of the little ones in a natural protective way and little ones listen to big ones even better than to adults.  

And he just loves school. He skips into the school with no crying from day one. It might change after a holidays but he seems to miss it a bit. 

I also cannot help but feel smug when I see all these kids crying and being upset, and my just happily goes in. 

They are still little to be away from parents and carers for a long day. But once they in school they have fabulous time and if your kids do this give it time it will be just fine. I had it a lot last year, and now look at the progress we made. 

As for speech... well he says a bit more. And in context, he wasn't happy with his one to one telling him that it was the end of activity, he said "go away". It is great two words together but shame they were go away. 

And he also doesn't like leaving the school one day we didn't leave till 4pm. 

So hurrah for school and hard working educators.
