Aariz and his imagination


Aariz has a great imagination. It goes like this :

Ma.. i want to see Dibo so that he can get me a real ben 10 watch so that i can become ben 10.
Next day,
Ma..i want to see Dibo so that he can make fly like superman.

Ok above can only be understood for mommies who have kids that watch PHDC at channel 613.

While im trying to get his imagination grow to something more real, like anything day to day in our life. It goes like this :

Mama trying to draw a mind map on what is happening at his kindy. This is to encourage him to explain and ability to describe properly.

Mama : Ok Aariz, this is your school..what do you have in your school?
Aariz : Hurm my friends.. (then he start to describe his friends)
Mama : Ok what else...
Aariz : Teacher Miza ( and he starts to talk non stop). We have Teacher Miza that every naughty people need to go to her class. Not so naughty boy just go to naughty corner....but very naughty go to Teacher Miza class
Mama : So have you been naughty ? You've been to Teacher Miza class
Aariz : I haven't. Not anyone because we are all good people
Mama: You sure??
Aariz : They are one, his name is Aris too. But not me..same name and he so naughty that he's been in Teacher Miza class.

Conversation goes over and over but i guess i need to check with Teacher Miza tomorrow ;)

Mama: Ok what else you have in your kindy?
Aariz: Homework. Infinity of homework...more than infinity...

Ok he actually did said the full sentence above and i was laughing out loud. He is so exaggerating on the amount of homework he have. Very cheeky too cos he will try hard not to finish his homework. Yeah he is typical boys!

We played this game until he get bored to tell me what else in school. At least with this new trick of mind map i get to make him explain and describe things better to me. I do have problem with him earlier to get him to tell me what has happend during the day when im not around. Usual answer that he will give me is either...Aariz tak tau or Aariz too tired or I dont remember.

They are few other things that i did with them after office. Usually we mommies get very tired during end of the day. But if i dont do anything to get their attention, or to give them attention. Im afraid i will lost them earlier than i thought.

Few days ago i stick on a large white paper on my bed wall. Give them stack of crayon and colour pencil and they are free to just draw and write anything. They excitedly draw and telling me stories on their drawings...ask me to help them to color and all.

Well have to think on more ideas ...else the kids will just watch tv endlessly, and think Dibo is real. Sigh.......
