          Hehe, no probz. We can arrange to meet in the centre coz i fetch them everyday. later i pm u my number 😉 But the items is only arriving prob next week so u just pass me the money when the items are here lor. I usually spree from http://www.singaporemotherhood.com forums. For vitamins, I usualy join tan leng leng's thread or tuffy coz collection easier.


          my kids only join S&D(Eng) coz I felt that their chinese quite ok liao so dun need the extra enrichment. My SIL will help to teach them occasionally but i focus more on the character building. I went and bought the \"san zi jing\" from popular with the CDs and I play them in the car so the two elder ones, esp LW can recite quite a fair bit ler.

          For phonics, LW used to attend the one in my centre but when the teacher could not continue, I have yet to find a good one to replace so the classes is on hold now.

          It's quite hard to teach the kids at home coz too much distractions ler so I usually \"use\" the distractions to teach. For example, educational computer games. Younger one I go to http://www.sesamestreet.org and for LW, I will explore different sites. Then when they watch TV, I make sure I impart values to them by discussing whether what the character in the TV is doing is right or wrong, etc. Even when we are shopping, sometimes I will point out things to them or ask them to count stuff, that way, they dun really feel like u r pressurising them.

          I try my best to answer all their questions even though sometimes I feel like telling them \"next time u grow up will understand\" coz if we dun answer their questions, eventually they will stop asking and that is not healthy, IMO. Actually, sometimes when we have to answer their questions, we would learn something new too kaka....

            HihI,


            Got yr pm. I had sent you my mobile too, just sms me and I will pick up from you. Thanks!

            Sorry just check with you again on the school, cos since your gal is there for 2yrs… , hope you dont mind… The swimming pool water, does the school change frequently? My hb said he often sees alot leaves floating in the water… so he thinks that its not very clean for the kids to swim there. They really teach swimming for just water play of kicking and splashing?
            Thanks!

              hehe, actually for the swimming i’m not too sure coz all the kids only start learning swimming in K1. Come to think of it, I never question the cleanliness of the pool leh, so i oso dunno how often they change the water. But based on their hygiene records, I think it shld be quite ok de 😛


              In terms of the lesson, from what i gather from LW, i think they really do teach them coz when we go to the pool, she will demo to me some of the things they learn from swimming. but i have never attended any swimming lessons before myself so i oso dunno whether it is the same as the paid lessons outside hehe… Y dun u ask Shermaine on the changing of water coz it never occurred to me to ask oso haha… then u can share with me keke

                HiHi,
                just checked with Shermaine, yes they change water on every Monday.
                As for the instructor, Uncle Joe, he is a swimming instructor who also teachs lessons outside. so its ok to swim there.... 😉
