While Christmas is just a few days away, now would be a good time to start preparing for the school year in the coming few weeks. Back-to-school season is already ongoing and I\u2019m sure parents like you with schooling kids have a lot to prepare for them to be ready when school starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before you panic of where to go and what to buy, here is a guide for you to plan out not just your children will need, but also how to make the most of deals and promotions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to stationery and books, this place is a cult-favourite for any Singaporean even though there are now fewer bookstore options as the last few MPH and Times bookstores have shut down just a few months ago. Nevertheless, Popular is now having a promotion until 12 Jan 2020 up to 50% discount<\/strong> on selected items and another exclusive 5%<\/strong> off from textbooks for members. Just send your school booklist<\/a> to them here but do hurry because the last submission is 22 December 2019<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bata is another trusted place for parents buying school shoes for their children. The better news is Bata is having \u201cCool For School\u201d bundle sale<\/a> now! You can get 2 pairs of cool school shoes<\/strong> from starting from $40. This sale applies both online and in-stores, but do get them while stock lasts!<\/p>\n\n\n\n As parents, you would want the best for your children and do so to help them in the long run. But exposing children to so many activities starting at 3 years old is just too much. Even if we want them to experience various activities, there are still fees to pay for the enrichment programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, for children between 4 to 18 months old, this article<\/a> has compiled 11 affordable classes at $30 and under<\/strong>! The list consists of classes such as dance, sports, art and craft, swimming and music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For children ages 4 to 14, Eye Level Learning<\/strong> is now having one free diagnostic test so that they can gauge the progress of your children\u2019s Maths and English skills. Another one is for SAFRA members which can claim 50% off the first-month fee which saves you $165! There are limited slots so sign up here now<\/a>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Another enrichment class to consider trying is the online classes which Smarter Me<\/strong> is offering for children ages 9 to 17. You can sign up for a free trial here<\/a> to find out if this programme would for your children, or you can click here for a free consultation<\/a> with them before committing to the classes.
