dimsum,

I tried yesterday with my new DBS Amex card. It also said unsuccessful.

Then today I received an email saying that they have received the funds !

How many times did you try ? If you tried more than once, better cancel the other orders.

tamarind, just checked my email. Yeah, they had received the funds! Amex card is EASY to use! So this means we can just disregard the \"unsuccessful\" message. Now my order status is 等待审核. Will wait for customer svc to contact me now

Ok... anyone wants to buy?


Set 1: 8 books plus 1 CD? Can *pm* me. Not suitable for my baby - imagine that.

Hi, I'm interested in the set too. Can I take over the set from you?

laughingcat,

do u go thru page by page or use it like a dictionary? How many words do u teach per day? I was wondering if I should read some short stories b4 referring to the book as a dictionary n act out the words to reinforce. How old is ur child?

Hello Wan,

So sorry for the late reply. Hehehehe I have been so busy lately.

I tried to teach the common words first like 我的 etc so that I can form a a short sentence for repeatability. Just like what Berries is also doing. In fact, books like Odonata also have this concept. In fact some of the English readers are also using this concept. So this is not very new lah. :lol:

I try to introduce at least 2 or 3 new words per week. Each time do with lots of games and sing lots of silly songs which we invent ourselves. :idea:
