Outstanding preschool education program for little achievers

11th October 2018 by Emily Finch 3 Min Read

https://expatliving.sg/outstanding-preschool-education-program-for-little-achievers/

Are you looking for a preschool program for your little one, but haven’t found the right one yet?  The EL team is already looking ahead for those wanting to start in August or September and checking the latest additions to early years education in Singapore. As a starter, here are just a few things that impressed us with the Early Years Specialist Program from age two at Stamford American International School.

Stamford American school bilingual classes
Stamford American School offers Mandarin and Spanish bilingual programs from age two

Bilingual programs from age two
Stamford American acknowledges the benefits of introducing languages in the early stages of children’s education. Two of the most widely spoken languages globally – Mandarin and Spanish – are part of their core curriculum from age two. Families may choose between daily language lessons or bilingual immersion programs. A bilingual program offers more intensive instruction in developing multi-lingual communication through equal daily exposure to both languages, so that your child will conveniently absorb a new language while carrying out their daily activities.

Stamford American School, violin classes, music classes
Stamford American School is the first and only school in Singapore to offer Suzuki Violin from age three

Suzuki Violin Program from age three
Learning to play an instrument is known to have long-term benefits for children in terms of posture, focus and gross-motor skills. At Stamford American children can start playing violin from as early as three under the world renowned Suzuki Violin Program. The Suzuki philosophy of encouragement, listening and learning with others, fosters children’s emotional awareness and creative development. While catching the music bug, young musicians will learn cognitive and social skills that will contribute to their upcoming years of education.

Stamford American School PE classes, physical education program
Stamford American International School offers an innovative physical education program for the little preschoolers

Innovative physical education programs for early years
Physical education is highly appreciated at Stamford American. The early years physical education programs exploit the strong link between the development of children’s gross motor skills and excelling in the classroom. SMART Steps, a program commencing from age two and progressing to the Perceptual Motor Program commencing from age three assess each child’s skill development to support their reading, writing, focus, perceptual awareness and attention development, while they are having fun with enjoyable activities.

Stamford American School, healthy school lunch
Stamford American School encourages healthy eating with family style lunches in their early years program

Focus on healthy eating and table etiquette
The importance of nutritious and healthy food gets attention too at Stamford American as they pair up with Celebrity Chef Emmanuel Stroobant to create a delicious family style lunch menu for young students. There is no need for packed lunches anymore, as the food offered at school is 25% organic, nutrient intense and guaranteed MSG free.

Open House
If you’re intrigued and would like to know more about Stamford American International School, register here for the Open House on 13 May. You will join the tour at the world-class campus and meet with teachers in the learning environment that is carefully designed and created for your little preschooler!

Always on the hunt for her next resto review, Emi has spent the last four years at EL munching and drinking her way around the island. Not one to turn down a free-flow opportunity, a personal highlight has been attending a super-brunch (yes, they exist!), and she now spends most evenings "power walking" it all off! Her active daughters and highly strung woofer keep her busy when she's not chained to her laptop managing digital content.

Don’t we all love a home makeover! 

If you are looking for some easy, low-commitment ways to spruce up your home for the new year we have six tips on how to do a home makeover from Caroline Chin Geyler (link on our stories) she’s the founder and principal stylist of award-winning interior styling firm Arete Culture. 

The company is a four-time Gold Winner in our Expat Living Readers’ Choice Awards (2017-2020) in the interior design and home styling category so they certainly know their stuff. 

As well as some fab tips she’s offering a special Chinese New Year makeover offer, too. At last our homes can look as stunning as these do @areteculture

Guys: did you know that your skin is structurally different from that of ladies? For most men, androgen (testosterone) stimulation results in skin that’s thicker and tougher than women’s skin. This also means you might need something more than just your wife’s, mum’s or sister’s moisturiser or face wash! 

Lumin was founded on this concept; this California-based online store offers simple yet effective skincare for men, tailored to different skin types and concerns. So, whether you’re looking for a good face cleanser or a moisturiser for men, this is one brand to check out.

To differentiate Lumin from other men’s skincare brands, founders Richard Hong and Darwish Gani flew to South Korea to work on formulas that benefit the thicker and more stubborn skin constructs of men. Most of the ingredients used are powerful plant-based extracts like ginger root, rosemary, coffee and shea butter. The paraben-free and cruelty-free brand also makes a point of avoiding unnecessary nasties commonly associated with popular off-the-shelf products.

If it’s your first time shopping for men’s skincare, you’ll be glad to know that the Lumin experience is simple and fuss-free. Just fill out a brief questionnaire and you’ll get a personalised skincare regime that’s suited to your skin type and lifestyle. You can choose to go with a one-time purchase or have your products delivered on a subscription basis. Alternatively, shop from the curated range of skincare sets catered to different budgets and preferences.

The rain and cold winds getting you down? A warm beverage and maybe a good book to snuggle up to might just chase the blues away!

If hot chocolate is too mainstream for you, could we offer up this red velvet alternative? @littlefarms have a wide selection of oat milks, almond milks and soy milk options. 

Since it's #Veganuary, we recommend using dairy free milks to recreate this recipe....

2 cups non-dairy milk of choice
4 medjool dates (pitted)
1 tablespoon cacao powder
1/2 teaspoon beet powder

Add the milk and dates into a saucepan.
Heat, over medium, until it reaches a simmer. Add the warm milk with the dates and the remaining ingredients into a high speed blender.
Blend until completely smooth and creamy. Serve and enjoy!
