mummy dibo : hyperactive child?

[RRMummy]

dibo:

think, every child is unique. all have their strong & weak points...


i just hope that my ds will be a normal & happy boy...need not to be very smart but able to keep up with the normal pace...

Exactly!! :celebrate:

sometimes dunno want to laugh or cry right?


my ds2 has very strong outburst of energy and stamina, and i am thinking of signing him up for taekwondo and such 'energetic' sports in the future. the comments i usually get is that i should let ds2 do some 'tame' stuff to try to tame him down (eg music or the 'slower' wushu instead of TKD). yet i was thinking, shouldn't i tap on his 'potential' instead? :?

DH and I had the same discussion about DD1, wushu/TKD?

But now we decide to let her have a go at piano then later on let her also join wushu.. then ultimately let her decide to continue/drop whichever she wants..

As our ds2 is pretty active, we are actually torn between letting him learn music/piano (ie tame him down) or 'train' him in sports (harness his energy) - he seems to love both. I am just worried that letting him do contact sports in the future will incurred injury that is detrimental to music learning (which need agility in the 'limbs/joints' etc).

think too much already - as usual.

Same with DD1, DH initially said that the best primary school to send her to would be a 'Sports School' to let her channel all of her energy!!

But really, it did not even occur to me.. :roll: err.. not even the injury part.. :oops:

[dibo]

i also thought of sending my ds for TDK class.....quote from RRmummy: place to channel energy!!...^__^

oh, my ds love swimming, so i may actually sign him up for a swimming course...

my ds could have a brave front but weak interior..hahaha
no doubt, he is super active, he is quite shy at times...will hide behind my back when ppls talk to him... :lol:

haha...ya..me and dh also to choose a school which is good at its sports CCA or offer a variety of competitive sports (which they are doing well in). currently ds1's school has only 1 CCA niche....which is one of the clubs/societies....

dibo,
so similar!! my ds2 can climb the bookshelves despite my warning, but once the librarian spoke to him, he'll quickly obey and run hide behind me! haha!! that means that chances are high that he'll be more tame in school next time!

[dibo]

jedamum, seem like our ds got quite alot in common... :lol:


as for your statement on next time will be more tame at school, i dont know leh..my ds recieved complaints by teacher that he distrub class & cannot sit still...haiz

could be a matter of time, when they are more familiar with the ppls & place, they will show off their more active self...

Nowadays, most of the kids are like that.

Hi Parents,

i believe my child is hyperactive, and many a times disturbs the class. The teacher is not happy too. she likes to control by shouting, which i explained to her that it will not help for more than few minutes.
I would like to change the school and try with some other teachers which are patient and innovative and new environment.
Do any of you have good experience in any kindergarten at West Coast or Jurong East with Hyperactive kids?
please help?
thanks.
