Yochien slide


I have been visiting Yochiens for William.  I figure it's the most costly way to teach him Japanese.  By the time we buy uniforms, do the entrance fee (big bucks) and the monthly fee, it is probably equivalent to a light load at a community college.  Oh well.

I am torn by which one to send him to.  There is only one that helps send home things in English.  An acquaintance, whose husband is an interpreter says she has problems because her husband is so tired when he gets home, he won't interpret the stuff!  And you know how much wah comes home with children from school.

This person sends her child to a Catholic Yochien (preschool and kindergarten are together here).  I really liked the teachers here best.  It is next to base, and convenient for that factor.

However, the one that supports English speaking parents is further off base, and quite a distance.  It has a choo-choo train bus, however!

Oh well.  We should make a decision by next week to reserve a place for us!

You should have seen William at this one.  He was looking so leary at this little boy who was trying to help him with a craft.  Cute.
