hey. Alisonli,
they got a lot summer camp in 上海and 北京.. I bet, they may be better to learn from the native speaker.
Fat bear and his sisters all speak spanish.. even Amanda's cousins, they speak spanish too (learn from friends at school and from the class) so I don't think that she has a problem --but I have the problem with that. I don't know what they are talking about..

Xother,
my parents live at 西半山, 啓思, woodland, 禮賢會just at the corner, even for the 社署day care, we got a few there as well.. before she goes back to hk, I will ask my parents to do some research. Amanda may live with my parents or her cousins if she lives in hk island, otherwise, she probably will stay with fat bear's uncle at Tai Po, then she will attend the daycare inside the 會所..
not so sure if I will go back with her, mostly not.. unless Ying EE can go with her (as Gabriel attends full time day care by then).

Xother,
shame on us.. when we speak Cantonese to Amanda, she will response in English, then we will response in English as well.. *sigh*..
I was yell when I took her out one day, a italian big mama, asked me to speak cantonese to her when she heard that I spoke to Amanda in English, she said.. "don't let the child lost their Talent to speak in my mother tongue"...
when she goes to my 99 home, she only speaks chinese anyway, as 99 and 62 only speak in cantonese.
even my mom, she only speaks in cantonese.
I wonder.. should I apply the HKID for her next year (again).. as she is going to stay in hk for almost 3 months.. ** as travel visa is good for 90days**

alisonli,

yeah, I think it may be beneficial to find a mandarin speaking nanny if you want your kids to learn Mandarin. :) I sent my son (he is almost 21 months now) to the licensed family daycare and the caretakers there speak Mandarin. All the other kids there also speak Mandarin.

I think my son understand both Cantonese (I speak Cantonese, English, & Mandarin to him at home) and Mandarin. When someone left, he would waive his hand and said "bye-bye, 再見(in Mandarin)". If we asked him "還要不要" in Mandarin, he will reply "要" in Mandarin. If we ask him "Chung 要不要" (Cantonese), he will reply "要" in Cantonese. Hopefully, he will retain all the Chinese that he learn when he is older.

Nillemami,
Yes, you need to be in HK with Amanda if you want to sumbit the form. It doesnt matter how long she stays, it is a matter of how you handle after the revalidation of your status. HK immigration will give you a time frame to change the status of your child and you need to advance them if you cannot make it and reply with approx time frame when you can come back to finish it

Regarding the language, I dont think hiring a nanny is good idea unless you really need a nanny. It is like hire a philippino maid in HK in order to teach your child English. My daughter is 5yrs old, she was in Mandarin daycare since 14months till 2.5yrs. She didnt pick up anything except a confusing mind. We worried her so much as she seems to have speech delay as she cannot pick up so many languages. I know some parent will persist to speak but for me, I prefer her to be strong in one language first atleast. If she wants to learn more, then I will find the way to help her.

As my husband only speak English, we have to speak English at home and watch English channels. As a result, my daughter's first language is English and she is doing very well on it. I try to speak Cantonese to her and send her to Chinese class, she is not interest as she thinks she only need to speak English. After we sent her to HK she realized HK is a place only speak Chinese and ....she correct me it is "Cantonese" and now she is very happy to go to Chinese school as she wants to speak Cantonese to her auntie. She likes to write as she can show off to my family that she knows Chinese.

Yes, kids can learn language fast but they can also forget it fast. few of my friends have told me that their kids use to speak one language but they can completely wipe out if they dont practice it.

My neighbour's daughter, mother speak Japanese to her, Grandparent speak Cantonese and daddy speak English and till now, she is 4, I can barely understand her as she always mix with some other languages.

Mandarin is most spoken language but since I dont speak Mandarin, I dont bother to send my daughter to learn as she cannot practice it. Any language requires practice and it will be easier if the kids know why they need to learn it. I know in many cases if you speak your home language at home, then the kids can easily pick up, but since my husband's exception, I will let my daughter to use English as first language and I will see if I can motivate her to learn Chinese.

唔好易思呀！咁遲先覆你！我都唔係好記得係邊張forms ar。但其實你可以打電話問下填邊張forms。唔駛年年review ar，仲要我去交表個陣都唔駛帶埋佢去，但個小朋友必須在Hk。因佢有一張紙比你出入hk境，另外你可以揀make a sticker好似個visa咁貼落本passport 度。但我就揀申請特區passport順便lo埋 hk ID card。

只係去申請特區passport個陣就要帶佢去見下，你可以選交表個陣或取passport時帶亞B去。

Dear all moms

根據我既經驗就係，最好係可以stay in hk around 2-3 months，因為你要等佢批核。其實我上次都係偷雞寫信去要求加快批核同埋BB留港既理由，佢先好快打電話黎約見我。仲好好人咁叫我帶齊野同千其唔駛帶BB去。我都有問過佢，佢話其實有機會係唔批架！因為你已經有美國居留點解仲要批你係香港喎！佢話唔係父母係香港身份就一定批，因為係睇小朋友既身份作決定。
