Just read your post and know that you have withdrawn shawn from cc. Poor shawn! He must have traumatised liao. Maybe you can look for those weekend classes for shawn first?
Next Mon my kids are going to a play gym organised by the school. At first I din want to go cos scared my kids will "glue" to me but later decided to go there "quietly" and "hide" myself so that I can observe how my kids are doing. </font>

hi XY - i just transfered the $ to u via ATM at 16:03. Thanks!
Mummies who have brought their toddlers on flight...
how do you all relieve ear discomfort caused by the air pressure during take off and landing? I read that sucking helps but Dylan doesn't drink if he's not thirsty...bringing him for his 1st flight overseas next Sunday and I'm both excited and worried!

elch,
I just leave it cos when she cries from the discomfort, the ears will just 'pop' to ease the discomfort. Heehee!
Mummies,
I'm getting the Letterland Living ABC software. It'll be $125 after discount. It's one of the products that the facilitator highly recommended for home use as it teaches not only phonics but handwriting strokes and there are songs and clickable scenes. Any one wants? If can get 8 orders, I can get a further 2-3% discount.

i think not every toddler experiences it. kate has done 4 flights and most of the time she was sleeping at take off... didn't express any discomfort even when she wasn't sleeping.
mint
ok, how about Tues 7 Sept? say 1220pm. Shokudou if you guys are not sick of it.

elch,
I usually give her a bottle of milk. She will take it even if she is not hungry. Otherwise I prepare little snacks, so that they will keep eating and chomping. bring LOTSA toys etc to keep Dylan occupied.
mint,
anywhere we can view the software? Izzy's CC is using Letterland and my MIL managed to find the Letterland music CD with the same song that they are teaching in the CC.
cheerbear,
sorry to hear that CC did not work out for Shawn. Can always try Playgroup in a few mth's time?

Elch, I latch Jaz during take off and landing. As for my boy I get him to keep drinking water. eating also helps. Pls do be mindful to get nose decongestion drops from ur PD, its for IN CASE ur babe got block nose. if that happens, pressure cannot release and it may cause damage to ear drums. It happen to a friend's friend's child before. the drops will help clear it before take off. During the flight home last month, I was too engrossed in making sure my two kids are ok that i forgot I myself has a cold. end up during landing my ears were so blocked (can't release pressure) I panicked. no amount of drinking water or swallowing helps. a lady sitting beside my hubby taught me how to massage the points on my nose and cheeks to drain it, she said due to her flying during a cold last time, her eardrums were a bit cracked as a result. in the end, i kept sucking sweets and using hot towel to massage my sinus points, it finally cleared after a long time. but for a few days after that, i still hear popping sound in my left ear once in a while.
I think generally no cause for concern UNLESS baby having a cold.

mint,
Hahaha...that's an easy method to use! I'm concerned about disturbing others though...
dimpletot,
Not every toddler experiences it? What a relieve to know! Shall not be too worried about it then...
essana,
Dylan's very stubborn...if he's full he won't take any milk...he's not into snacking either! Especially when it's offered by me...he prefers 'begging' for food from others...eat abit and play with the food thereafter...
Guess I'll just not be too worried about it and let nature take its course! Thanks mummies for sharing!

daisybuttons, cheerbear,XY,
Thanks...shall heed all the advices and stuff all items in the backpack! Not easy to travel with toddler. Seems like 50-70% of the packing list is Dylan's stuff! I'm sure I'll be over-packed as it's his 1st trip. My mentality is to be over-packed rather than be sorry!

<font color="0077aa">Hey Mint, was that the same workshop that the letterland local guys did? I wanted to attend one on 21st Aug but hubs was outstationed and so, I could not go.
How was it? Anything that you can share? I wonder if they intend to have another one... And yes, that CDRom is v good.
Cheerbear: sorry to hear that. Did you notice if Shawn was treated roughly? C also cried big time and also din wanna go to her playgroup initially. Took her a while to settle... I heard from some teachers that some kids do have nightmares so hopefully Shawn would be better soon.

cheerbear,
actually izzy also started crying at night. i dunno why cos she seems to enjoy CC. Every morn will put on her uniform happily and now even know how to say the word "school". Only a whimper when she goes into the CC and according to the teachers, not a cry afterwards.

Elch and Vanilla, yes indeed! when we went to aussie during winter we had 2 big luggages, 3 full cabin bags, and 2 diaper bags to lug onto the plane! Thank goodness my BIL was there and on the flight back he helped us keep 20kg worth of stuff so that we can still meet the weight limit, coz we bought things mah! He just sent the stuff back to us recently heee.

Am sure shawn will start to like attending classes again. Give him a bit more time.
Wenmin doesnt stick to gorgor since long ago and she also doesnt want gorgor to stick to her. Teacher feedback to me that each time when gorgor go look for her, she would say "no no" to him. I have to "warn" wenxuan that if he continue to do so, I'm going to transfer wenmin to another school cos I do not want him to rely on his sister. Yesterday I was told by the teachers that wenmin is the 人气王 in school now. No wonder she doesnt need her gorgor anymore.

Congrats!!!
JJmom, Cheer bear, Dimple, Jelly
Wenmin likes to go school. Every morning she would not allow anyone at home to carry her cos she scare we would keep her at home. The moment we reach school she would quickly open her arms big big to let the teacher carry her.
Everyday when I'm there to fetch her and wenxuan, the older kids there would say "bye bye, wenmin". At times some of the kids would sayang her by touching her head or cheeks before she go home. Dont know what she has done to gain her popularity. This morning one of the teachers told me a parent wants to "kidnap" her home to become her daughter-in-law. So funny.
Intend to let them go to the same Pri school next time so that they can accompany each other. Keep wondering how come my 2 kids characters are so different. </font>
