Joy,
Actually I brought most of the stuffs and those that she has already completed work on are the following My Sticker Art, Tissue Art (this is fun… I actually brought another box so that we could do all over again), Farm Colleges (this is quite cool too); can do a search for these items on www.alextoys.com. If you are interested, I pass you their 2008 catalogue lah… Reading is good and that’s the best headstart that we can provide our children with…. We spent an average of 60 to 90 minutes reading books before bedtime but when it comes to weekends, she will surround herself with books wherever she is in the house. I am quite happy with how Kell has progressed cos these days, she can read out the sentences without any help But whenever she sees a new title, she would make me repeat the book two, three, four times before she starts reading herself. I guess, she is trying to memorize whatever it has been read out and yet at the same time, trying to be familiar with the book. I think I am really heng lah… cos I started her off with DK books and that step really helps in building up her vocabulary and opens up her interests in reading.
Hey, try growing some plants with G… I think she will enjoy it. I brought a big packet of green beans during the weekend and plant them in disposable cups with Kell… so used up 30 cups in all (cos my gal refused to stop) and I task her with the responsibility to water them every day. We saw sprouts on Tuesday and yesterday, we saw leaves… she was so happy and so proud of those cups and kept on ranting ‘qiqi plants this’….
