Chinese Writing

This should have been done months back. Anyway, she's learning to write her chinese name. Today we did the surname "jiang". This is the easiest to practise. The difficult part comes when she needs to write her own name. Eg

Snip, Glue & Sequencing

Recently I bought 3 sequencing books suitable for Kindergarten till lower primary level for Jamie to learn. Today she's doing K's level. Pretty easy but needs some time to observe, digest and relate the pixs into a simple story that I asked her to form verbally.

20 Months Old

Jeremy has grown alot more now. And he is very vocal, loves music & piano and he is also physically active as well! He talks even more and at this age, he can follow 2 simple instructions at a go. He is capable of telling you certain shapes and colors, he can run pretty fast, jumps a little off ground & loves to jump into the 0.9m deep swimming pool wif his float unaided....... the list goes on.....

Doodle Doodle

I love to see Jamie draws. She talks alot while drawing and often engaging in her own imaginary world. So I quickly snapped and eavesdropped!

Hey Look at My 2nd Prize!

This is Jamie's 2nd prize from the Sports Day. I think 2nd prize is better than the 1st prize. A bag. Sounds boring ya?

JCK Sports 2007

Today is Jamie's 1st time participating in a Sports Day. I'm equally as excited and happy as her! It started from 9 to 1130am. Although its just a children's event, but I am amazed with the school's logistics and all the preparations work! Will be loading some pixs and perhaps a video clips if possible. Stay tune!

IMM Outdoor Water Playground

I heard about this newly built playground since about 1months plus and since Jamie need not have to go to school (am session sports day), might as well bring the kids out for a short while. Jeremy enjoyed himself so much more than Jamie as he is not as frightened of the fountains as his jie-jie. Pls bring extra sets of clothing if you are planning to go there.

Adding to Jamie's Wardrobe

See all these pretty Fox Kids clothing?? Simply irresistable right? Thanks to her Ah Yees for the birthday presents!

Jeremy no longer fuss over the paints that land on his fingers, feet and legs. He gets better & enjoys more each time.

Mini Party in the Evening

Happy Birthday Jamie!

It's Jamie's 4th birthday today. She's finally 4yrs old. No longer tell people she's 3+. Haiz.... she's a big little girl now though I'm happy to see her growing well enjoying every bit of her life. This morning I decided to bring the children to their favourite indoor playground. This time, Jamie was very reluctant to leave and she weeped and whined a little when we left. One thing I'm pleased to see is, she is able to make new friends comfortably and can bid farewell to them when they left! Now I see a more socialable Jamie.

The day is finally here. Thank God for the drizzle instead of stormy rain when we went to school at noon. It's so fun to see all her 20 over classmates sang the birthday songs (English & Chinese) to Jamie. And Jamie got to serve her principal a slice of cake + in return for a bday present from the principal ! I took some videos as well as a photo of Jamie wif the principal but the CF card's having some problem, cannot view!! Arrrgghhhh!!!! Luckily I downloaded these b4 and after school. Just hope jpapa can solve the problem tonite....

Bye Bye Diapers!!

Since early this month, Jeremy is able to indicate to us when he needs to go to the toilet. And one of the ways I used to encourage him is the same old method I used on Jamie. Who says reward system is not effective? I have been using EC (Elimination Communication) method since he was a 5.5mths old baby. So going to the toilet is not something new to him. Now I have problem looking for the right brief for him.

I Can Do It!

Just months ago, Jeremy wasn't able to accomplish this by himself. Either he cannot slot in properly or couldn't find the correct slot. This afternoon, as I was packing Jamie's room, saw this toy lying underneath her bed. So I took it out to let him play. Yea, he can do it all by himself! Good job! He's 19.5mths.

I Can Write

It's been quite sometime that Jamie hasn't been practising writing chinese words. Have been showing her how to write the correct strokes of words like sun, moon, man, water, stone, soil, fire etc. Today, we practised number 1-10.

Theme : Clothings

It's always good to take a peek at Jamie's school notice board to find out what she's learning so that we as parents, can collaborate with the school to achieve optimal learning experience for the children.
