Re: Drawing straight lines
Hey, there is a kumon workbook for learning to trace lines. I bought for YT. The title is "My First Book of Tracing". I paid $9 for it at a bp. I let YT use a pencil to practice cuz I want to erase and let her draw again, haha. She can draw straight lines but will overshoot lar.
I'm also interested in Semipi last time but never got up to going for the trial class. If I go, I'll go Hougang Mall on sat de or I may quit GUG and go on sun.

it's really up to u. we r not advising not to send. we r jus giving our opinions. if u r looking for ah bian to settle class to socialise with other kids, i would rather advise u to send him to a dou dou ban or half day CCC. in seimpi, bcos the parent is there, the kid sticks w the parent more than anything. there's vv little interaction w other kids in the class.

pax: i meant singing.. as in u are able to recognise teh ntoes.. and have the tune in ur mind.. la la la.. is the same as using do re mi.. but do re mi. is anchored on the wu sheng ying jie..so it is easier to translate to having the tune in the mind.. the la la la la part.. is just a subsitution..
can also be subsituted by a b c d .. but the first introduction to the wu sheng yin jie is very impt.. i am flawed in that lah.. just sharing what i feel..

bbmar,
Agreed. Cuz there is minimal interaction time with other kids for this kind of parents accompanied classes. I'm going to send YT for playgroup at Hougang soon... cuz I think she whole day just play toys at home lar. MIL not free enough to teach her and now that my SIL is pregnant, even less time man!

bbmar,
your MIL is a good teacher!
Huajing,
ok, since u already have a plan, then don't have to feel bad. just wait till your #2 settle. But hor, just a thought, maybe u should send Elisha to CC now BEFORE your #2 comes out. That's what I hear from a friend.. she says she will not send her #1 to CC, precisely because she is having #2 as she doesn't want her #1 to feel that just because there is a new baby, so she has to go to school and not be with mummy.. as in, my friend is afraid her #1 will feel 'abandon' in the school if she send her there after new baby is out.
Anyway, I think there are many kinds of theories and what other people feel, do or say.. As long as both you and hubby is firm on a decision, then can liao. Sometimes also cannot think too much.

bbmarch,
There will be good days and there will be bad days. Sometimes the kids just want to wander around. Sometimes they will focus and learn. Can't force them to learn. My idea is just have as much fun as possible! Kids do what THEY WANT to do, not what WE WANT them to do. Haha, lift off the website.

pax: yes.. that is the traditional approach.. but maybe not the desired approach
.. ya. i am no music expert lah. just providing another view point. coz if semipi.. does the ABCDE.. then maybe it is not what i am looking for.. but i will hold all comments till i see it for myself..
on paper.. it has a fantastic programme!
btw, i just want to say something. i think. teng is growing up.. like M! hahaha.. carbo boy.. likes mushroom and rice.. rejects all veg? no?
hahahah

re: sticky kid
mummies, any of u experiencing particularly sticky kid now? I don't know why, but EJ is very sticky to me tonight! He insists I sit at his desk with him to do drawing with him.. When I lock myself in the room to do my SB, he came banging on the door, crying and yelling for "mama mama".. like very ke-lian.. then i had to pei2 him.
I find it a bit weird cos EJ was never really a sticky kid. Hmm, then even his papa pei2 him, he also don't want.. the weirdest thing is, there are days when he will totally ignore me.. and just stick to papa. Is this normal??

pax, but i think we can tell whether our kids like or dislike something from their reaction.. i am sure anthea hates shichida despite being in the prog for 9 mths, and she loves kinder and GUG coz she even recites what she learns in class before she sleeps.. i think her attention span is too short for a "sit down" class dats why..
autum,
Me and hb had many time debate on sending Elisha to CC, end up I give in and pent it first.
We will send her for 2hr playgroup only, I will leave #2 with my mum and accompany her there and bring her back myself, dun think she will feel 'abandon' cos for didi.
edde,
Whahaha so my hb is right
we most worried if she got HFM (one punggol is very “popular”) or chickenpox which is endanger live.

Autum,
YT has been sticky to me like forever. Remember there was a time when I said that she can go to sleep on her own? Well, it lasted about as long as she needs to be on medication. Now, once again she will make me sleep with her. Sometimes when my hair is wet, I'll tell her I can't lay down so she can lay down and sleep first. Just now she touch my hair and told me that my hair is not wet so hurry up and lay down! But of course, I was trying to tell her that I'm sick and actually am trying not to pass the sickness to her. I actually have to creep my way out of the play-yard and out of the room!

Autum, i think kids oso hv their patterns bah. Ah bian is super duper sticky to my hb. Lucky for me rite...Yes it was cos it happened during my pregnancy and even after i delivered didi. He wants hb to play wif him all time and when we go out, he will ask hb to carry him. But when he is slpy, he will ask for me instead. I will need to read books or sing songs to him then he will be happy.
