Middle School Transition

MIDDLE SCHOOL TRANSITION...KIT FOR KAT! UPDATE


Morale & confidence booster by Papa
Middle School is such a change from Lower School – as if by magic, Kat has matured in the last month or so. Doing all her work systematically, putting reminders in calendars, packing her own bag, making sure everything is in order for the next day – all these have become part of her daily routine. The ‘grown up’ bit is overflowing to the other areas at home too – having a tidy room, making sure phone is charged after school AND is placed in the backpack in the morning, putting dishes away properly, clearing up the table after dinner, leaving the bathroom neater and not cluttered with dirty clothes after a shower...and of course, going to the school bus stop all by herself (it’s only across the road though)...all these are BIGchanges for Kat but she is learning them well and is taking it all in her stride as she grows. Of course, she needs to be reminded every now and then but that’s OK. READ MORE>>

Eating on the bus

EATING ON THE BUS...KIT FOR KAT! UPDATE

It happened with Kat and now its happening with Kit...whilst sending them off in the school bus is a great bonus for me, the downside is the food issue that I had to deal with Kat and now with Kit.

Kit Kat go to the same school (different divisions and different buses) and although Kat’s is much further away than Kit’s (for a couple of years at least), that does not stop Kit from complaining that she gets hungry on the way back...the school has a "No Food" policy on the bus and I have always stuck to that. Now here comes the problem – I am one of the many mums who will comply with what the school says but when your kid comes across a happily munching kid on the bus, you are in for some serious conversations! While Kat (now of an age where she understands right and wrong...well, I hope!), I am often faced with heart breaking questions from Kit. READ MORE>>

Kit for Kat! Lifeguard on Duty

LIFEGUARD ON DUTY - Latest from Kit for Kat!
OK - August has been very eventful for us. 2 weeks driving down the West Coast, from San Francisco to LA (1500 miles in all). An earthquake last week and then Irene (a hurricane and then a tropical storm) - all these combined with several migraine attacks! We've been busy...

It has been a never ending round of packing and unpacking suitcases (latest being the one we packed a few days ago in case we had to rush downstairs when Irene struck)...all this is getting back to normal now (sort of!)

Kat was actually sad to get out of the rental car (aka our mobile home) because she felt that it had been her home for the last 2 weeks (I don't blame her - with all the snacking we did on the road, it did seem like Mom's kitchen!) READ THE REST... here

You've got mail!

YOU'VE GOT MAIL! - Latest from Kit for Kat!
Every morning, Kit comes out of her room and looks at her mailbox placed right by her door...
"What? No mail? Again!" she says and turns to Kat, Papa or me "why didn't you write me a message?"
After a (God) promise of doing it tonight, all is fine and a major situation averted. Phew!

So this is the reason each one of us can be seen writing little notes for Kit at night - to ensure that she has mail every morning. READ THE REST... here

The Hair Dilemma

TO CUT OR NOT TO CUT? - Latest from Kit for Kat!

It's taken Kat a good couple of years to get rid of her layers and grow her hair and she has now reached the point where she can make a nice ponytail or a neat braid (without hair sticking out). Of course, she does not want two braids (although easier to make with her hair) as she does not want to look cute but she wants to look pretty (?!) I am convinced that this must be a preteen thing but the obesession with long hair is currently very HOT in our house (second only to Kat's love for lip gloss!)

I look around in Kat's room and see Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift and Victoria Justice everywhere - I like them all too except that ALL of them have beautiful, long hair and have Kat believing that long hair is very 'in' and here to stay. Personally, I and Papa think that she looks much smarter with short hair but when you have an 11 year old with opinions and confidence of her own, you have to let go and give some degree of independence for them to live with their little decisions...

Good oral hygiene (even before pregnancy?)

For all the mums and dad-to-be and to parents who either have a child on a well established tooth brushing routine (and congrats to those with children brushing religiously twice a day!)or have a tiny one just playing around with the toothpaste (tasting more than brushing) or those who have a notorious one who simply runs away at the mention of anything starting with tooth...THERE IS SOMETHING MORE!

It is now being said (source: Daily Mail 6 July 2011) that it is important to take care of your teeth even before you think about getting pregnant! Click here for the Daily Mail article.

News is that oral hygiene can help you conceive two months faster - so come on, stop chasing your child for a clean brush of the teeth - it's your turn next!

Magic of Bermuda


What a relaxing holiday it was...just back from Bermuda and I can still feel the warm (at times rather hot!) sun on my back. It was a much needed vacation and Papa got to spend quality time with Kit Kat...MUCH MUCH NEEDED!

It’s interesting how a hotel with buffet breakfast can change its ratings (for Kit Kat) from a great hotel to THE BEST. (I saw a similar look in their eyes when we went on the Cruise last year and we saw all that food for the first time...) I think it’s not just the food but the way it’s laid out, easy access etc. When it comes to actual eating, there is so much confusion (especially with Kit dropping cutlery almost all the time, losing her napkin, fighting to make my tea endlessly) that in the end, the breakfast is not so successful!

Kit Kat have just returned from a fun holiday to Bermuda - read all about it in our personal blog @mothersbliss - Kit for Kat!
