hi faithgurl,
my boy is 13months now and i intend to bring him to shichida next yr Jan when he is 17months. cause Jan is oso their new intake. but i think you need to put deposit 6months in advance just incase they dun have a space.
i got a friend's son who attended their class when he was 18months and now he is turning 4 end of this yr. his memory is super powerful. eg: we show him a name card w/o telling him wad we wan. and after awhile like 30s to 40s we take back the card and ask him what are the colors you remember on the name card. he can name it all to you which i am very impress!!
as my friend say.. this is not a 1 2 term thingie. it is a on going class den you can see result.

currently i send my boy to kindermusik.
on going we might be trying out bibinogs, gug, jg and zoophonics.

Hi dolliepollie,

Thks a lot for sharing. Understand that we need to do some homework at hm to supplement for the Shichida class. Do u hv any idea what can we do at hm to teach our kids? Possible to chk with yr fren? Thinking of starting off something at hm 1st but no idea how to go abt it & where to get the materials. Any mummies / daddies can share?

Mom Duriz actually posted on my newbie thread this link

I have read through only about 5-6 pages and found it quite useful. I am also thinking of sending my girl (8 months) to right brain training soon...I am just considering whether it should be shichida or some other program. I believe there is quite a few.

From the thread you will see homework with child is only 30mins everyday.

Lets keep this thread going and share what to do since a few of us all thinking about enrichment for our child.

Hi

Whats your experience at kindermusik. I google and read their website. It seems it is a music kind of school. Would you continue with kindermusik once your child join shichida ?

I have also seen on youtube that chinese program about rightbrain training. Just got to youtube and type shichida and you can watch. I am very impressed with the girls ability but does it mean most of the child who goes through the program will be able to do what she or your friend child did? I would be very happy with my girl if she can do half.

It seems you have spoken to people at shichida since you know their intake is in Jan.Have you? I am thinking of calling them and go for a preview to see what it is like.

Oh I finally finished reading the thread and researching on the various courses. This is a summary of what I gathered.


Thanks to Duriz...I was able to do my research on this thread

http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?t=106&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30

I finally read finished all the 14 pages this morning...

So far what I gather most people send their kids who are between 7 - 18 months to

1) Shichida (right brain training) - it seems got a few different schools offering right brain training...so also dont know which one to chose.

2) Berries (for chinese lessons)

3) Seimpi and Kindermusik (music school)

4) my gym (for physical exercise)

5) Zoo phonics (I think for english lang learning)

Did I miss out anything?

And I probably would not consider swimming, piano, abacus , drama and other stuff yet.

Feel free to add more or share your experience...

Hi EASON MAGPIES,

Thks so much for the information. It's very useful indeed. Understand that you are considering Shichida Method. In fact I hv already sign up but still on waiting list. Guess that it must be good if not there won't be so many ppl signing up. Their intake is actually base on quarterly basis starting fm January-March, Apr-Jun so on & so forth.

Oh...then looks like I must fast hand fast leg...haha...

I search through the homepage, U signed up at their anson road office right?

Did you investigate the other schools which are offering right brain training as well? I also will probably look at those.

Did you sign your kids for kindermusik and my gym as well?
