Dear All, can I check when will be the right age to send lo to sch? Most N1 classes starts fr 3 years old. Am I depriving my lo of learning if I only send her to sch when she turns 3? Coz I've many friends who sent their kids to childcare at 18 months. Are there any good enrichment classes that I can send her to over the weekend?

there is no right or wrong age imho. I believe it's a matter of can you or can you not manage when your kid is not in school. the benefits of going to school and not going to school are pretty different, but yet, both benefits the child. for my kid, I sent him to a 5 day playgroup when he turned 18 months old, but it didn't last. 1 month later I withdraw him and homeschool him instead, 3 months later I let him go for twice a week playgroup for 6 months. I feel that, I myself teach him more and he learn better. But for my sanity, I would like to send him to school when he turn 3 LOL. I need me time! also I feel he will learn and absorb faster and better by 3 years old. so I decided to give him a stress-free childhood, just play and play and play.
