你都幾獨立喔！
<= 我係獨生女嘛, 由細到大我習慣一個人, 亦習慣一個人完全自己嘅事. 可以話好, 亦可以話唔好.

乜你教你個女d 英文vocab甘深？
<= 我就係唔知邊啲要教先, 總之, 我一出街, 見到乜, 就教乜, e.g.
落街見到 flower, tree, leaves, swing, slide, chair, car, van, minibus, truck, bus, rubbish bin, recycle bin, lamp post, bike, motorbike, dog, cat, bird, eagle (係屋企成日都見到), moon, lamp, lift.
去supermarket教生果, apple, banana, orange, dragon fruit, pear, grapes, cherry, strawberry, potato, tomato, broccoli, eggplant, avocado, sweet corn, onion.
去bakershop有 bread, egg tart, cake.
去食飯教 bowl, spoon, chopstick, plate, knife, fork, straw,
當然仲有必學嘅, eye, ear, mouth, nose, hair, head, bellybutton, hand, finger, foot, toe, leg, arm, arms up, tap yr foot, clap yr hands,
睇埋 dvd, 學埋, dancing round & round, arms up & down, roll yr hands, gorrila, lion, pig, cow, horse, chicken, duck, hippopotamus, zebra, girrafe, monkey, elephant, sheep, chimpanzee,
總之見到咩就教. (以上嘅嘢, 事關日日見, 由細開始睇到家陣16個月, 當然已經記得晒啦)

家陣教緊顏色 (其實教左好耐), 見佢未係太掌握到, 但red, yellow, green 應該無問題 (事關過馬路/搭車我教佢睇traffic light, 佢知道red light = cannot go! green light = can go!). 其他color我仲要觀察耐啲.

仲嘗試教佢咩係 circle, square, triangle, pentagon.. & she still cannot do the object matching.

但發覺我日常生活要見嘅嘢, 佢已經見得七七八八, 我覺得我有須要帶佢去下其他地方見下新嘢.

甘你現在同Chloe溝通係中文為主，英文為主，還是mix code?
<= 我早上 (因只得我同bun妹), 我會講英文.
夜晚, 爸爸返黎, 爸爸講廣東話, 咁我地全程講廣東話.
所以佢英文好過中文.
我唔會一句中一句英, 更加唔會中文加啲英文, 因為我知咁樣係唔好.

開倉 <= 等我今日又去下先, thanks for yr information.

我講果啲yogurt 唔係o係雪櫃果啲呀, 係擺係 babyfood果度咖, 我無比雪櫃果啲yogurt比阿女食, 因為我覺得太凍喇, 唔想佢食雪櫃嘢住, 你去擺babyfood嘅架度搵啦, 有 strawbelly yogurt, egg custard (但我阿女唔食呢隻).

衰左!原來你指的yogurt唔係freeze左個d!唉!天寒地凍, 阿女實唔食啦!

嘩!你list個d vocab.實在太勁!如果Chloe全部聽得明都好smart!難怪你想知她上次 HKPS"衰"乜? (sorry!又提起你傷心事!)

我都好想阿女認知能力高d,但每日返到屋企都五六点！吃完饭都赶同阿女冲凉！（sorry!the school computer shows simplied chinese suddenly)! Then, 8:30 pm is time to bed! So, I could only spend less than an hour to teach her vocab.

Does full time mother have more time to teach kids? Or just because I do not make good use of the time available?

Have you visited the icefire on-sale? any cheap items be bought?

Does full time mother have more time to teach kids?
<= 咁我由朝到晚都對住佢喎, 我去邊佢去邊, 點計都梗係我有多啲時間教佢啦. 不過, 多時間並唔代表我教得effective教得好. 你係miss, 我諗你嘅方法點都會比我好啲.

家陣教佢big, bigger, biggest 即係大過, 細過最頭痕.

都唔知點表達比佢知..
(as I heard someone said, from BB point of view, every object got a name, so teaching them the names are quite easy!)

but now, when talking about triangle, circle, square, bigger, smaller & colors, this is a bit difficult for me.

no ar.. finally I didn't go, my husband suddenly come back early yesterday afternoon, need to entertain him ar!!!

right now, still in English (technical problem of my notebook!)

Teaching about colors, shapes and sizes.....me too! very difficult! Right now, I focus on teaching colors and shapes..but fail of course!

Start from Nov 2009, our kids have to attend K1 interviews and most interview questions involve matching colors and shapes.. but our kids will study N1 this Aug/Sep...so as parents, we can't rely the nursery teachers on teaching our kids about colors and shapes !

I wonder if most playgroups teach kids about colors and shapes or not. The one my daughter attending, not! That's one of the reason I am looking for some "good" playgroups right now!

In fact, I've brought a lot of books and toys to faciliate teaching these topics, but maybe lacking teaching methods (though I'm so called "teacher"), they do not work!!! Or just because her mentality does not reach the level high enough to learn the skills???? Who knows!

For N1/k1, which one would you prefer,
1. a.m. class or p.m. class?
2. Chinese/English class or International class?
(for reference only)

I've heard that kids should attend international classes only if they will study international primary/secondary schools..But I know some mami still choose international classes even they plan their children to study local primary schools.. the reason is to expose to more English environment

My daughter troubles me again! Recently, she likes screaming and screaming loudly to express her dislikes/anger/disagreement.....Does Chloe do that?

I read some information on the web, regarding at what time babies can differentiate colors/shapes, for yr ref =>
http://www.babycenter.com/404_when-will-my-child-know-his-colors_6717.bc
so don't worry, I believe if our babies are normal, they can recognise them soon. haha~

As Chloe loves balloons, I bought a lot of colourful balloons. Sometimes I make different sizes of balloon (same color) so as to show her what is big, what is small, etc etc.
I found 'this method' quite work on Chloe.

Or, may be u can try, using Michelle favourite toys.

For N1/k1, which one would you prefer,

1. a.m. class or p.m. class?
<= 我會揀am. 感覺上, 好似多啲時間用咁.

2. Chinese/English class or International class?
(for reference only)
<= International (From my understanding, international class = 英語 & 普通話班, Chinese/English class = 中英班, 即廣東話 & 英語班.)

我聽人講過, 小朋友個腦好似一舊大海綿, 你比幾多, 佢吸幾多. 只要用正確嘅方法去教, 小朋友係可以學多過一種語言. 我有幾對夫婦朋友, 都係一人一語言, endup小朋友係兩種語言都講到, 而沒有混淆不清.

在我身邊, 我亦見我有好幾個舊同事, 佢地嘅小朋友(3-5歲喇), 都係幼稚園入面學普通話(我係生日會聽過佢地唱普通話生日歌, 嘩! 啲口音勁似呀!) 係屋企同菲傭講英文, 係學校同同學講廣東話, 全部都非常流暢, 並沒有中英普夾雜在一起.

我諗, 懂得教, 係可以兩文三語!

My daughter troubles me again! Recently, she likes screaming and screaming loudly to express her dislikes/anger/disagreement.....Does Chloe do that?
<= yes, she did, but not always. She prefers crying instead of screaming.
Anyway, everytime she screams, I tell her that this is very bad and she is naughty. Mama doesn't like this. Then I go away.
After several times, she stops screaming! (oh, actually I dunno if she really understands or not, just, now she seldom screams.)

你介紹用汽球的方法很不錯呀！我個女都好鍾意ballon...等我去買來試下先！thanks for sharing

我開頭都以為international class係以英文為教學語言。。但search下又好似話連課程都同一般主流小學不同！都係要了解多些先！

又想請教你啦！你日頭同Chloe講英文，夜晚你老公番黎就講中聞！Chloe真的不會混亂嗎？我依家都想同阿女講多些英文，。。。

今年要報k1啦！我覺得甘細個就要為讀書煩惱都好無聊，但係遊戲規則係甘，除非你唔玩遮！

你有無join 政府80蚊資助打流感針？個時未有資助我都有幫阿女打!但今年都唔知忙乜，成日唔記得去搞。。。

<= 我未知佢有無混淆呀. 但佢家陣所發出嘅聲音, 都係英文. (除左人名之外)

今年要報k1啦！我覺得甘細個就要為讀書煩惱都好無聊，但係遊戲規則係甘，除非你唔玩遮！
<= 絕對認同. 如果可以讀國際學校+外國升學, 根本唔洗煩, 可惜我地無咁龐大嘅支金呀.. 要係香港讀, 就要跟呢度嘅玩法.

你有無join 政府80蚊資助打流感針？
<= 都未去呀.. 嘻嘻~ 我諗凍埋呢幾日就去喇.. (希望係新年前打啦.)

係呢!你有無繼續找prenursery?你有無報victoria?
我第一間in青衣啓思，收左上午班，不是首選，但又怕其他唔收！結果照比660留位費！上次in第二間，收左下午班，今個星期六要註冊，但又想等埋keenmind,victoria and 學之園的面試，相信又要比多660買個保障！

本來都想係屋企附近讀，但我家姐叫我好好栽培阿女，讀九龍塘prenursery好d....我家姐都幾成功呀！生完仔做全職主婦，個仔由屋村k1--> p1-->轉到九龍區小學，仲考到皇仁！上年同她個仔做portfolio升中一, 德智体群美樣樣都top!....最近，我又要幫我阿哥個仔做portfolio升中一，但完全無樣嘢brilliant!唔知與阿哥兩公婆都要出來工作有関呢？都係講個乍！我知好多狀元的父母都要做嘢！

<= 有呀.. 見hkps唔收, 渣渣淋去搵多一兩間.
已經寄左form去victoria同學之園, 家陣等緊學之園面試, 再報埋屋企附近嘅迦南添, 都係等緊面試.
希望at least有一間收啦.

我諗小朋友成功與否, 好大因數要睇個小朋友本身, 咁有父母精心打點一齊, 當然有些小優勢.
但都唔係必定, 唔好氣餒呀.

victoria你報左邊一間？我報何文田， 28/2面試。你趕得當日in嗎？但原來君逸山個間新校，校費平d！其實，我都係湊下熱閙，victoria超多人報！我自問阿女都唔算好smart ! 花30 蚊見識下同埋了解阿女係strangers前的表現！另外，n1學費超貴，4千幾，再加埋校車1千幾，每月埋單過6千！仲貴過讀大學!老公已經say no !

你唔使番功，又有工人，你會唔會比阿女搭校車？還是自己/工人接送？我聼人講，搭校車好容易“學坏“！！！

same as you, 我都係湊下熱閙，如果阿女真係間間都唔收 (而只有呢間收), 我先會比阿女讀呢間.

你會唔會比阿女搭校車？
<= 我諗住自己接送呀.. (突然覺得我好鬼癡阿女添 =p)

carmen, 想問下你，你最後有無join幼聯playgroup?你上次試堂，係吳係都有兩個miss, 一個年紀幾大的中囯女人，叫ms, san-san(我自己拼音），另一個年輕印度籍（估計）女人？我想找d english playgroup, 但ymca要三月中先報得，可能想join番幼聯！其實，青衣有個鬼婆係屋企搞playgroup, BKmami讚到不得了，但我番了幾堂，覺得太多free play time, 同埋會教phonics , 個人認為甘細個學phonics係曬氣。。。

<= 無呀.. 佢地話早上嘅堂, 只有星期四 / 六, 我唔想星期六上, 但星期四佢話已經full左.. they said they got a new class coming .. on wed 14:00-15:00, but that's not a good time for us.
as a result, I left my contact info, just in case they have vacancies on weekday morning, they will call me lar..
so I am still finding english playgroup for BB.

thanks for your reply! By the way, both of us should look for english playgroups for our babies! The one you and I now joining aims at training babies' big and small muscles as well as other intelligence, the instructors perform the class in Chinese....

我等緊下一期幼潛嘅消息, 希望2月開始嘅一個course, 我同其他mami (大家家陣同一班) 組埋一齊, 諗住包班, 希望成功啦.

係呀.. 如果幼潛ok, 我諗住返多一個 english playgroup.
暫時我覺得一個學行為 (中文), 一個學語言 (英文), 已經足夠喇~

ok, let me call call if they can arrange a trial class for us in YMCA.

我同你的看法一樣!都打算一個教train social skills and emotions,另一個train 英語！

好似ymca無試堂。。。 anyway, you can try!

今日我又同阿女in N1,今次係第三間，撞正第二間今日註冊，我找家姐幫忙去註冊，而我就帶阿女去in 迦南。。第二間係下午班，我問過可以早些排隊去攞籌轉上午班，我都估到一定有好多家長排對轉班，我家姐今早已經早一個多小時到校排隊，但都要排第13個籌，你話幾誇張呢！都只不過係荃灣一間比較好少少的幼兒園遮！
都唔知轉唔轉到，要六月先知！

講番今日面試，又係衰左，平時阿女成日叫“媽媽“ ， “daddy",係preparation/warmup room都成日講，但一到老師問， “他/她是誰？“，阿女唔答

，跟住認動物，平時都認得都識講，貓貓，wow wow(狗)，馬馬，雞雞，（命中率係99%）但她居然把馬讀成wow wow!到玩mega blocks ，考正阿女最弱個項，她唔肯/唔識砌高積木，到最後，老師送貼紙，叫講謝謝！又唔肯講！！！！！

我都無打算讀，但想知同月齡的小朋友情況，因為今次係第2round, 全是細仔！我見都幾多Chinese 父母同小朋友用英語對答，仲有d好勁，識數同講1至15！同埋有d識講短句！原來老師幾care小朋友是否懂講詞語，不是單字。。我話，她識講apple,但老師無乜反應！

我起初我以為自己都幾pay time and effort train 阿女，原來有d 家長仲勁，我想我要加把勁！！

相信HKPS仲勁，我聼聞好多in n1已經識用普通話講“謝謝！“

我覺得去in 出名 pre-nursery，有d "陪太子讀書“的感覺

好激氣...

我去過幾個playgroups, 見有啲小朋友, 不修編幅, 啲父母見自己個b去搶人地阿b啲玩具, 就話, "係啦係啦, 一齊玩啦, 分享嘛..",

mouth:
okok, 我阿女好順得人, 你要搶, 比你, 佢玩個第2個.
點知, 行轉背, 果個'惡爺'又黎搶, 總之人地阿b揸住啲咩佢阿b就黎搶, 佢阿媽又係果句..

咁我見阿 '惡爺' 掉低見玩具, 咁佢唔玩咖啦, 我咪攞比阿女玩, endup, "惡爺"又黎搶.. 佢阿媽今次扮睇唔到添

我諗, 做父母係咪應該要教bb唔好咁霸王先啱呢? 佢阿b呢個行為, oh my GOD, this is not SHARING lor!!!
唔好濫用sharing先得咖!!!

有啲BB好粗魯好惡, 上playgroup果陣, bb可能唔alright會勁喊, 點知佢阿媽都係勁易發爛渣嘅一群.

真係, 揀幼稚園/幼兒園, 真係要睇下你去果間, 啲父母質數係點...

你in邊間迦南? 我以為迦南係要等bb18個月先會in添~

我諗, 你唔好咁氣餒住先啦, 有好多examples都係bb咩都唔做, 但endup啲學校都會收咖.
我地既然唔知佢地嘅收生標準, 就尤得阿女佢地表現自我啦. 對住陌生人, 我諗個個bb都須要啲時間去warmup. 我諗呢種reaction, 啲miss應該見慣咖喇, 好多bb都係咁咖~

不過, 我見上次in hkps果陣, 啲miss都會嘗試望住bb對眼, 我唔知可以點睇, 但佢地一定係有啲方法去access.

我見都幾多Chinese 父母同小朋友用英語對答..
=> 係咪其實都係好似我咁, 要谷住講英文咖咋, 因為家中有bunbun, 咁無理由講完一句中文, 又講一句英文咖嘛.. 好clumsy, 於是, 索性講晒英文.. 仲有好多父母都要做嘢, 日頭齋對住bunbun, 梗係英文先啦.
有啲幼稚園係講中文, 用中文interview, 咁去到呢啲幼稚園, 唔識中文又係麻煩~

我覺得去in 出名 pre-nursery，有d "陪太子讀書“的感覺
=> 唔好咁諗啦, 好嘅又去in下, 差嘅又去
"目及"下, 見下唔同area嘅小朋友嘅分別. 好嘅幼稚園/幼兒園, 係因為佢地嘅教學質數比起其他嘅有優勢. 經佢地千挑萬選, 佢地會選一啲啱佢地教嘅小朋友.

我未退休之前, 我都會in人, in人唔一定係要最top果啲, 而係要啱公司須要嘅一類型.
我以前做I.T., 我見過, 有applicant一入黎就派咭片, 有標青成績, 口才了得, 仲勁sell我佢係出面寫什麼什麼程式, 人緣亦有幾咁好..
但, 我知道, 咁樣嘅一類人, 用黎對外會好, 但如果我要佢坐係度主力對住部電腦, 係唔太適合.. endup, 當然無請.

所以, 你唔好氣餒, 去in唔一定輸梗, 唔去就一定輸.
