Did you go to kindergarten when you were a kid?

Oh yeah, I remember these plays too. I was a little bit shy, when acting in front of the large crowd. I remember the two plays we performed. Both were written by our teachers. I was acting a Wolf in one of these plays, I can't remember the other part I performed. I also had quite good preparation for school, I knew how to read, write and count. I received part of education at home and another at kindergarten too, as I had home language other than was spoken in the kindergarten. So I've learned to translate from one language to other quite early and had no problems with learning at school too. Thanks for your response!:)

I remember I had kind of a wolf mask too. It was more like a hat, it was like I had killed the wolf and made a hat from it I had some kind of tail too, and yea, I was an evil wolf! I am glad to hear that your plays are doing well, keep it that way!:)

the pleasure in mine. hahahaha! did you play as the big bad wolf in little red riding hood? wow! i like that role. my thai student can portray that role perfectly so we won twice and heading to the nationals. ironically, he's the best looking without the mask. have a nice day!

That was a very good time in my life for sure. Thanks for bringing back all those memories...

We have also done the same activities in kindergarten. We've painted, colored, learned to read and write. We had special workbooks, there were different exercises, including that stickers task. We usually did that last one in the end of the course, so I couldn't wait to stick these stickers! Anyway, just like you I already knew how to write and read when I was in kindergarten, so I think I had kind of advantage. Many of my current classmates were also in the same group with me, so I was pretty familiar with all the kids, when I entered the first class. Thanks for responding!:)

Yeah, it's a good place for your child to improve social skills and learn the basic skills needed for school: reading, writing, counting. It's also good if parents are working and no-one can look after the kid. Thanks for your thoughts!:)

Thanks for responding, longsdogin! I think that every kid has been naughty in some times, so there is nothing unusual with it. Kids just want and have to some fun, because when they grow older, time for having is getting cut shorter and shorter, and soon you'll be wanting to go back to the kindergarten.

You know what? I never had trouble with waking up early too. Maybe it's perhaps there was no stress and hard work at the kindergarten? Because now I am going to graduate from school and I hate waking up in the morning knowing that I will have to sit for 8 hours at school and kill my brain cells with hard exercises. Thanks for sharing!:)

I remember some kids from our group too, they turned silent and sad when their moms left them at the kindergarten. It just took a little bit more time for them to get used to the situation. Thanks for answering!:)

Oh, that other place was surely different from an ordinary kindergarten. I think that one plus of this place (in addition to getting familiar with all the children here)was perhaps that you got more attention from the assistant. I think that these places may offer quite good alternative option, if the parents don't want to put their kid into kindergarten. Thanks for answering!:)

Wow, since sending kids to school with two years of age is quite early. But they can start learning new things early. It may even give them advantage against other children. I used to go to a "Sunday school". It was kind of a school by the church, we learned about bible there and did some handicraft and just had fun, so it was quite fun and educating at the same time too.

Communicating with other kids was one of the main reasons why did I like the kindergarten too. I made lots of new friends here and we still communicate with them, because many of them go in the same school I do. Sad to hear that your teacher was mean, but at least she was able to get you proper education in young age. Our teacher succeeded in educating us too, but she was very friendly with us. Thanks for answering!:)

I think that kindergarten has positive effect on anyone, and I wasn't the exception too. You get educated and also get some new friends there too. Thanks for sharing!:)

I wasn't like fresh 3 years old when I went there, more like getting four I think. And I also remember my first day, when I cried when mom left me there. There were all the strange people around me too, so I was quite afraid on the first day. But after couple of days, I got used to the situation too, just like you. It's good to hear that you managed to pass the kindergarten and school well:) Thanks for responding, have a great day!:)

You must have missed such a great time of your life. Or again, it could be your worst experience ever, because there are some people who didn't like to go to kindergarten. Thanks for answering!:)

I was in kindergarten just like from 3 to 7 years. First day I came here, I was sad that mom left me there, but couple days later I actually started to like it. It seems that you had a nice chance to have some rest of your brother, so the tensions between you lowered during the daytime. When I was leaving the kindergarten, these assistants became as good as a real aunts for me:D Thanks for responding!:)

I liked it too, and just like you, I had a story with my shoes. I had just received a new pair of shoes, the ones with flashing lights under them. Every time I made a step, a little red light flashed under my foot. So we used to look for some darker place with my friends and then we were just stamping the floor there, just to see that red light in the darkness. Kindergarten wasn't like a real school for me too. I just played with other kids there and sometimes we did some educating exercises there that taught us how to draw or write. These were fun too anyway. Thanks for sharing you memories!;)

I think, that most of the little children (but not all) are shy. In my case, I was shy too for the first days in kindergarten, but we had the friendliest teachers there, so it was easy to get into good relations with them. Thanks for answering!;)

I've been in kindergarten until the age of 7. In general I had no problems with discipline, but I remember that some kids had. In general, I didn't hate the kindergarten, because I was having fun there. That vomiting story...I remember couple of such from my childhood too, but these were the other kids in kindergarten who vomited. There was kind of soup, which I hated too. There were little pieces of pork in it, I hated them. Once I almost threw up, so after that, I started to pile these pieces on the edge of the plate. When I was done with soup, I wiped those pork pieces back to the plate and put a dessert plate on them, so teachers didn't notice them I know what you mean, when talking about missing the kindergarten. When I went to school, it was interesting there for a few first years. Now I am going to graduate soon, and I feel, that kindergarten was like heaven for me. I didn't have to make any homeworks there and that daydream...It's the best thing now! I am so tired when coming back from school. Ah, these times will never return again... Thanks for sharing!:)

I had a great time in kindergarten too. And just like you, I had a chance to take part of many trips, I got to visit many interesting places. There was like a tradition, when all the parents had to make a field trip to the place they work at. We've been to train yards and bakeries and factories...oh, we've seen so much and it was interesting too.
