Text Color Brought Jeremy for a trial session at Little Neuro Tree. Have never enrolled my kids to such right brain enrichments and I must say I'm so amazed but what the kids are learning within the short 1 hour!!! He will be going for anohter 2 more trials before deciding if we should let him complete the entire term or not. Anyway, he can only attend till before I give birth since I've to sit in wif him.

Parent Volunteer Updates

After sending 2 emails to inform the school of my pregnancy, there's still no news so I quickly picked up the phone and dialled the number. Thank God I received their replies via phone call and an email today! So I will be assign for desk bound or indoor activities instead. Kudos to journey to complete my remaining 26hours!!

Primary Preparation ??

This has not really crossed my mind since I thought I'm drilling Jamie pretty well since she was 1+. We will do all sorts of brain teasers activities, ranging from IQ games to worksheets and reading etc etc. After reading this article, I realised that there's still some works yet to be drill on!! So, parents, do read on and find out where you are at before heading for herps of surprises next year! Enjoy!

On Fire!!

This shocked me when I looked up into the sky near my block! I quickly rang my fren and asked if her flat is on fire and thank God its not. But its surely one of the unit/flat nearby caught fire! Hope nobody is hurt.

Valentine's Gift

Did a very simple gift for CQ within a very short period of time when kids were not around. As years get by, our ways of celebrating such events have also "down scaled" to more practical and meaningful gifts/meals. And coincidently, we had our in laws and WJ at our place over for a dinner, hahahahaa!!

Tiny Love Symphony In Motion Farmyard Animal Cot Mobile

This has been highly recommended by alot of forum mummies as well as a personal fren of mine who has just given birth 2mths ago. Thank God that I managed to find 1 seller who happened to clear this off after using it for 5mths. So it's as good as new and I got this at 50% off!

KinderKit Game Set

This is another game that he is finally "fit" to play ! Frankly speaking, I prefer to train him using such gadgets however he will be lacking in writing skills should I not pump up some activity worksheets for him.

Mighty Mind Game

Finally I can take out this game to train Jeremy after Jamie had completed this long time ago. There's going to be more of such mind training games to stimulate him in days to come !

I Dun Want to Sleep!!

Found this lil boy lying motionless on the sofa while clinging tightly onto his fire engine!!!! Could it be the flash cards session that tired him out or ....

Mimi Star

Jamie took home a chinese homework to be submitted coming Monday. While I was resting on the sofa, I seized the opportunity and asked her to match the words together.

Kungfu Panda

Papa rented the movie and got the kids to watch it on 2nd day of CNY. We have been tempted to rent this for the family to watch many times ago but was put on hold as CQ was worried about those violate kungfu acts that may "corrupt" their minds. Anyway, quite a regretful move. Jamie drew her fav "Master Shifu" last night. I think its quite cute.

Missing-In-Action

I have been off blogging for almost 10days although I'm still able to find time to log in to check mails n stuff. I am definitely busier becos we have just sent our domestic helper back home. And we are now without any help. If you ask me how I manage, well, by God's grace I am doing good except I couldn't whip up a 3 dishes 1 soup dinner for the family. For this, we've decided to get Tingkat instead.

Montessori Phonics

I've formally started Jeremy on the Montessori Pink Scheme (level 1, 3 letter words). As he hasn't started to write yet (still on pre-writing exercises), I won't be covering the worksheets as of now.

Preston

Ever since the end of school holiday, I've started Jamie again wif daily language, Math, IQ practise again. Now that she has graduated from Montessori phonics, I can now focus more on Grammar wif her instead. This is one of my fav book that I'm using to teach her. It's so thin yet a very comprehensive book indeed! I remembered I did this when I was in my school days too.

CNY Preparation

While the children are in school, I quickly did my last minute shopping at a nearby supermarket. Little ?? Aiya, can lah. Anyway, nowadays people dun eat like as if they haven't eat for years. Just snack, I think should be sufficient (still gotta get Bak Kwa le). Plus, we rarely have guest. Most of the time, we will go to in laws' side to "feel" the CNY mood. I am still hesitating if we should get the miniature lion dance gadget for the kids to play or not. And CQ been complaining not enough CNY ornaments to jazz up the house. Hmm, I seriously dunno where to hang those red red thingy ley.

Work for the little boy

I am in awe whenever I see how much Jeremy can accomplish by himself. Perhaps becos he's quite petite in size, we always think that he is still a baby. BUT this baby has grown and he is such a smart, vocal boy. I thank God for blessing us wif such an adorable, wonderful playmate for Jamie. Nowadays I see more of them playing happily wif each other, lesser quarrels and fights for sure. Here's some of the new assessment books Jeremy is working on. He is learning very fast, faster than Jamie when she was 3years old. I guessed this gotta do wif experience. I hope that I can do better wif #3.
