About "the little boss"

The little boss program has been a dream comes true for Hi5 Children Playgroup. It is also one of the top favorite program that the children want to participate.

It is not that common in our country that parents let children involve in non-academic activities. Therefore it creates some obstacles when we are organizing "Where do find the participant?". 

Second, the venue. The fact is that not all the business places are children friendly, and willing to compromise their business for this activity. 

The cost, teaching the children how to work can be at least three times harder to do it by adults. Most of the parents will agree with this statement. It incurs more jobs than usual, especially the cleaning and standby extra man power to make sure their safety. 

Despite all these difficulties, we managed to organize a few rounds of the event. We can call them successful by looking at the happy faces at the end of the day, and how they keep on talking about their working day. 

The reason we try so hard to make it happen is that children at the young age, especially age of 6 and above. They really need recognition by adult, and they are exploring the real world. If you pay attention during their play time, you will notice children at this age like to host role playing games very much, either is shopkeeper and customer or doctor and patient. Being able to experience working in a actual workplace means a lot for them. 

For those parents, who participated before. We would like to thank you for your participation. That really means a lot for us. After all, that's the very first time we organize this kind of event outside center. 

We are looking forward for more fun and exciting activities with your participation. 

See you this week! The little bosses.   


We let children enter the real working area, and work for real.

They would also need to encounter the challenge for real as well, by handling the questions from parents or other customers.
