Not long ago we shared an inspiring story for mothers who wish to start their own child centered business. The mother in that story is from Hobby Hop In, Bangsar.
Hobby Hob In was started because of a mother's love for her young children. She couldn't find the programs she wanted to nurture her sons, so Hobby Hop In was started for her sons and for children of friends. It continues with that culture today. Classes are small and cozy. Their speech and drama classes are small with a maximum of 10-12 kids while they accept a maximum of 2-3 kids for their tuition classes.
New Phonics Class Starting In Bangsar
At the moment, they are starting a fun an interactive phonics programme for 3 year old children. The class will be on Thursdays 4.15 pm to 5.15pm.
The class will use Jolly Phonics. Children will be introduced to a sound each class. They will also be taught blending of sounds. Each sound has a song, an action, a story and some practices to enhance the sound they learnt.
Jolly Phonics is a fun and child centred approach to teaching literacy through synthetic phonics. With actions for each and every of the 42 letter sounds, the multi-sensory method. It is very fun and fulfilling to watch what the children can achieve.The letter sounds are split into seven groups and blending is introduced.
Hobby Hop In strives to set a strong foundation for kids.
