Caleb's colouring
Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 6 January 2008 in People & Portrait.
So Caleb did colouring on the second day.He coloured areas outside the apple,and he told me he wanted to colour an orange instead.LOL
In the end,his teacher came and told him that he had to colour within the lines of the apple rather than without. His neighbour started snatching Caleb's crayon and drew on Caleb's apple. I was so....! I had to resist the temptation to snatch back the crayon for my son and draw on that boy's paper...evil grin.

Is that a male teacher? hhmmm...he must be one of the few male kindergarten teachers. Actually I dun quite agree that all the colouring must be within the lines. Why? And who says apple must be in red? It could be a green apple. ;)

I truly love all the collages of images you have put together of Caleb at school, dear babe. He really comes across as enjoying school, and it makes my heart glad to see that. :)
