Ashley doesnt likes to trace in real books. So i print out worksheets from online for her to do at home sometimes. Last time she insisted me to draw dots for her to join the letters.

Zavier has homework from school every Friday. Currently he's still tracing different line patterns for English and Chinese characters for numbers. Now till no. 3 only. Although he's always v enthu abt his homework, he usually won't last thru even the first worksheet without complaining he is tired. It always takes me alot of coaxing and threatening to make him sit through and finish all the 3 worksheets.

krazy, thanks 
blurmom,
ya I let Josh swim in the spa pool at home. But it waste a lot of water
So I also go in after he finished and S &J also play water in it hehee
Yesterday we bring him to swim in a swimming pool, he was perfectly ok about it... never cry though it was really cold .... but we managed to swim for 15min only cos heavy rain sigh.
J is much much better now. For 1 month already, she had not had a single of those hysterical meltdown. Able to articulate what she want and dun want and is much more patient with us. And she speaks in full sentences now though her diction still need improvement. I was really happy with her progress and she even know how to read with simple phonics blending after I taught her once.
S is my new headache now. Long story.

blurmom, meow,
ya its a relief... I really hope she will continue to improve. There is still some lag like diction but generally she has improve to the point where we find that she does not urgently needs therapy. Thus even though she finally got an appointment after 8 months on a top occupational therapist's wait list, we decided to postpone it. No point wasting money (cos the first appointment alone cost $500+ ) so we will just wait and see.

CONGRATS! Rest well!
<font color="119911">Writing/Tracing</font>
This year Val started having homework to do. It's tracing, either alphabets or chinese characters (numbers). It's only 1 worksheet so it's ok, she'll write them but her handwriting sucks (*lol*). Most of the time she gets "B" I think (*lol*). Anyway she's very distracted also. She'll write but after one she'll talk to u.. u'll have to tell her to finish her writing, she'll write another and then talk to u again.. so this cyclec continues until she finishes the last one.
Valerie can't write her own name neither can she do simply phonics blending. Even asking her to do puzzles to make up words is not easy. She's very one-track mind. If she's holding to the alphabet "R" for say the word puzzle "CAR", she'll only want to fix the R onto the C. And if she can't, she'll give up.. must constantly encourage her to try and sometimes give her some 'help'.
jialat..

valmom,
let val watch leapfrog word factory dvd ... think it helps. once val know all phonics sounds v well, start with simple 2 letter blend eg "at". Once she know "at", put "c", "s", "m" etc in front to form the simple words. I teach S & J with this method. Then to read sentences, need to teach them some sight words too. Once they know that, write simple sentences with the words they learnt to encourage them
at first it was tough but after a while they know the technique liao.

nope. different seller.
my one,.. she quoted me. $75 for 2LB bottles. thats 1.14kg i think. personally, i feel the medium sized bottles are best .. cuz not too large that will contanminate if not handled properly or finished fast enough.
hmm.. also this thread.. the organiser hasnt added in shipping charges.. will definitely cost more than the $80 she is charging now..
btw, MUMMIES WHO HAVE ORDERED THE HONEY:
Package is on the way!!

poohy,
wow, joelle hair is so long and nice. I wanted to grow D's hair long long as well but not successful. Till around armpit area and then i will trim it. My mum will nag why mus grow her hair so long etc. As long as can tie up enuff liao. And they also said that the longer the hair, it will need more nutrients and this will 'take away' the nutrients from the child.

san,
ya ... I actually prefer short hair... cos long hair need to manage and tie... I dun really like it cos felt it will cause unnecessary hair loss and I dun have much hair to begin with ... so I thought likely J would inherit the thin hair from me. But my mum insist on keeping her hair long... but I do bring her to trim.

wow so great! Look forward to your email on ur bank details!! Btw I'll collect from NORTH too, Crystalmum will help me collect. Thanks!!!!
<font color="ff0000">San</font>
hehe I also read abt the nutrients part of the hair, issit true? I just cut Ashley hair real short & she keeps asking me "Mummy, when my hair will grow long?" But me wont be keeping her long hair cos she always take out her rubber band 1 & always so messy & sweaty!! Then the hairstylist told me better dun keep hair so long, cos everytime tie the hair up is bad for the scalp too.. which is true to me lor. So there goes long hair for her until Secondary School?? think the longest i can let her keep is just collar lenght.

poohy,
my hb also doesn't agree wz me to grow her hair too long as managing it will be difficult especially washing her hair.
twinklets,
the 1st time i heard such saying is from a beautician. She told me her MIL dun allow her to grow her gal's hair long due to this nutrient thing. Then my mum said she also heard this before. So i not sure is it true or just an old folks tale. But you mean you read it from somewhere? If you 'read' it, then it is more reliable than hear say from other pple.

I only 'read' it from a Mummy's blog, it is also a saying from either her mil or mum i think. Now I think think, ehh..I dun think having long hair will take away the nutrients. I think having glowing nice hair equates to having nice complexion. They come hand in hand together. So i dun think 1 will so called 'snatched' away the nutrients more.
I'm more concerned abt her scalp, cos daily in school need to tie hair. So i wonder abt the long time effect on her scalp. & yet if she doesn't tie up her hair, she looks so messy to me. So contradicting, so decide to cut her hair short finally. Now she looks more chubby to me, & I really like her "xiao yuan yuan" look.

She watches "Word World" from Channel 34. Sometimes she'll try to blend them but she's too playful to really be serious in learning.. lol

Valerie doesn't like to tie hair or put hair clips so short hair is the only way for her

twinklets,
you need things can still sms me bah. Yes Natas is at expo this weekend too. Darryl has lost his voice liao. No sound from him already. Neo garden used to provide confinement food. But i think because of poor response, they took the menu out liao. To confirm can call and check it out lor.
Thanks Tigger, his fever finally under control but really must give paracentomol every 4hrs else will shoot high up lor
