It's up to God

Prime Hafiz Enters School

The morning sun today was friendly with Nadira, describing her cheerful heart. Sunlight burns Nadira's spirit, which was extinguished due to her worries a few years ago, when she was reunited with Jerry; nadira's ex-boyfriend. However, as long as there is Ammar who strengthens and convinces him to continue his spirit in running life, Nadira will always feel safe and comfortable. Moreover, he has been blessed with a son who is now 4 years old.

Early in the morning, Nadira and Ammar have prepared all the necessities to deliver their son—Hafiz— to Kindergarten school which is not far from home. Hafiz, who is like a child in general, makes plays before leaving for school. Fortunately, Nadira's patience this morning is not as thin as a tissue, although sometimes like an atomic bomb if you really feel tired, but all mothers must have their own way of educating their children.

"Hafiz ...! Play it later, kid. Let's go to school first. Yuk, spend the breakfast first so as not to hurt and the spirit of learning!" Nadira. It was clear from the fickle face of his that was holding back emotions.

Hafiz did not heed his mother's speech. He is alone with his toys. Ammar, who had just come out of the room, grabbed the body of his son and advised him.

"Hafiz, Honey. Good papa's son. Hafiz didn't hear what mom said?" ask Ammar carefully. His position squatted to equalize Hafiz's height.

Hafiz nodded.

"Don't mom say what Hafiz is?" ask Ammar to let his son admit his mistake.

"Say mama, Hafiz play it later. You see, Hafiz wants to go to school" said Hafiz with the children's accent.

"What else did mama say?" Ammar asked again.

"Telus (continue) mama said, Hafiz tened (requested) spend ointment (breakfast) bial (wild) not sick and bial (liar) Hafiz spirit of learning," replied Hafiz with a slurred tone.

"That means, now what should Hafiz do?" ask Ammar who hopes his son stops running and wants to spend his breakfast.

Hafiz hugged his father and apologized, then approached his mother. Nadira smiles at the way Ammar educates their son. Truly the best husband and a great father figure for them.

Hafiz hugged Nadira and apologized.

"Mama's upset, huh, same Hafiz?" said Hafiz who looked at Nadira with a guilty look.

"Hafiz's prayer did not follow (according to) Mama's command (order). Hafiz apologize, yes, Ma. Hafiz promises, will not be wandering (running around) again just as Mama bribe Hafiz."

Nadira and Ammar are very lucky because God has blessed a handsome, funny, adorable, and obedient child like Hafiz. Hopefully in the future, Hafiz can always be a good boy who complies and wants to admit his mistakes like now. Hafiz's age is still very small, but his thoughts are like adults. He is very wise in speaking words. No wonder, Hafiz his son Nadira who is a famous writer. So, it's smart to string those words together, a derivative of Nadira.

Educating children is not easy, but it is part of the responsibility as a parent and all depends on the future of children. Children's time is play, that's why we have to adjust the situation and have the best way to anticipate it so that our children do not always play until they forget education or do not want to learn. We can not equate how to educate children in ancient times with now, because it is certainly very different.

For children today, we can invite them to learn while playing or vice versa (playing while learning). Moreover, there have been many books or educational games as a medium for children's learning. For example, we want to introduce alphabets or hijayyah letters, try buying a puzzle (composing the pieces) while introducing the letters. Children will certainly be fun, learning will be fun.

An hour later, it was all ready. Hafiz was fully dressed in her school uniform. A blue bag filled with stationery and black shoes is ready to accompany Hafiz's trip to school. Not to forget, food and drink supplies have been brought by Nadira, put in a Hafiz bag. Nadira and Ammar do not want their children to snack carelessly.

Quoted from the halodoc website, that the benefits of children bringing supplies to school is one of them gives control over the intake of food consumed by children. If the child has certain food allergies, then it can be prevented by carrying a safe food supply. In addition, parents can also ensure that children eat a healthy and nutritious balanced diet, compared to snack carelessly. Because health is the most important thing in life to carry out activities. As the saying goes, it is better to prevent than to treat.

Arriving at school, Hafiz was handed over to his teacher so that he could be taught education at a formal school. Although the main madrassa is a mother and in the Koran it is mentioned most that a father participates in educating children, still formal schooling is needed. In addition to the knowledge obtained from the teacher is more, children will also be easy to get along and get used to adjusting the environment. Children will tend to be more active in finding ideas and creative to create works, as well as other positive things that can be obtained when the child mingles with his friends and of course in the mentoring of teachers at school.

The school bell rang, Hafiz entered the classroom. Meanwhile, Nadira and Ammar return home and will return to pick up Hafiz when the school return hour has arrived.

In the classroom, Hafiz seemed happy to gather with his friends.

"Whose name are you?" asked Hafiz who was trying to familiarize himself with a boy on his right.

"Me, Tomi. If you are, who?" tomi asked while shaking Hafiz's hand.

The introduction begins Hafiz and Tomi's friendship. Farah's mother greeted the children as this was the first thing to do when the teacher entered the classroom. Greeting children the age of Hafiz with students at a higher level of education, such as SD, SMP, and SMA— is certainly very different. Because Kindergarten children are still difficult to focus, it is important to make their attention focused on the teacher. Usually the Kindergarten teacher will greet the children by clapping their hands and making a loud noise. Then, kindergarten teachers can start greeting children in a distinctive style that can be understood by them. Usually, Kindergarten teachers also repeat what is said and asked by students in class.

Shortly thereafter, after the greeting ceremony was over. Farah's mother begins to teach Hafiz and her friends a lesson. Today Farah's mother introduces animals, such as the names, sounds, colors, and foods of these animals. All the children watched the explanation from Mother Farah carefully.
