Jiejie resumed Dharma Junior class + water play

How our typical Sundays look like with jiejie having her dharma junior class in the mornings 😅 This week we went GBTB’s children’s garden for water play. They will initially so disappointed as it was closed due to weather. But it soon opened in 5 mins (lucky we didn’t leave!!)

... Read moreSundays have become a cherished routine for us, blending spiritual growth with playful outdoor activities. Watching Jiejie attend her Dharma Junior class in the mornings offers a wonderful glimpse into her learning journey, nurturing values and mindfulness from a young age. After class, we often look forward to some restorative fun, and this week we chose GBTB’s children’s garden for water play—a perfect spot for kids to splash, play, and cool down. Though the garden was initially closed due to weather concerns, waiting just a few minutes allowed the kids to enjoy the reopened water play area. Moments like these remind me how patience can turn disappointment into delight. To cheer them up while waiting, I treated the kids to ice cream, which quickly lifted their spirits. It’s simple things like these that create lasting memories. From my experience, balancing structured learning with free play is essential for children's overall development. The Dharma class instills calmness and reflection, while water play encourages physical activity and social interaction. When managing outdoor plans with unpredictable weather, it’s helpful to keep backup options and small treats ready to maintain a positive atmosphere. Ultimately, seeing the kids smile and engage deeply with their surroundings makes these Sundays truly special.
