Which kindergarten has LETTERLAND?

Letterland is from UK, but I find that it's kinda rigid (read: not much fun??).

hi, not quite true abt \"not much fun\". 'cause Letterland uses very colorful and catchy charaters to teach children phonics. The lessons are delivered with engaging stories and accompanying music. At least, my son loves e characters/stories and engages in interesting discussions with his mum... like some character catches away another character in a net, so u don't sound e character when sounding the word... I m quite clueless about phonics, unlike my wife... but I guess e success of any phonics system is its ability to make learning fun so that e child learn better and Letterland is definitely one of e more successful systems around.

Is it? I bought one of the CDs, and it sounds very boring. Didn’t manage to ask ds to sit throughout the CD to listen, whereas for other CDs, he can sit and listen.

Prob u r referring to e stories’ CD…

E delivery also plays a part - e teachers in school make it more interesting with colorful teaching materials (like big posters) and music CD - e letterland song is quite catchy - my son picks it up within 1-2 weeks.
Anyway, as I mentioned, it is just one of e few systems… u can go with anyone which works with your kids.

I have tried contacting them before but no reply at all. Noticed many ppl do not 'bother' about their businesses, they do not reply any of your emails nor respond to your calls/sms. :roll:

Any of your kids attended their classes in Yishun before? May I have feedback on this center pls? TIA.
