Hi, so those days when u pack, does she still get pocket money?
today i pack for her, scare she spend on junk food again… no pocket money to bring to sch today…still happy cos i gave her the money to put in piggy bank!!! -
mommies, thanks for sharing. will think of ways to reduce the 1.50 and encourage my boy to save money. i think the alternate days is good. cos he can eat healthier food and also learn to use money and save.

-
for some schools, the min price for a bowl of noodle is $1(my ds school)… ranging from $1 to $2. so pocket money must be more than a dollar… if need to stay behind for lunch… pocket money must be mroe than $2-…
so how much pocket $ depend on the school and the child spending habit. -

Oh, what happened? Did she fall down?? Glad she is better now... No worries, don't think your DD1 teacher gave any homework. My DS has no homework for the weekend too. BTW, the teacher has given out the school time table. Every Tues and Fri is PE day. :boogie:My DD1 had a knock at the school hall on the 1st day of school and now the blue black is like a 50 cents coin and complain her leg is so pain (today then i know :slapshead: )... :sad:
Then today DD1 had fever (38.8) after i send her to school. FT call around 2.20pm and rush there to fetch her at 3.10pm... Haii :sad:
What a week for us... :sad:
Tmr going to take her to doctor...
Hope things will be better next week...

My DS didn't buy anything from the canteen for the 1st 2 days (I packed bread for him) though he wanted to buy packet drink from the drinks stall on the 2nd day. I saw him queueing up with buddy but was too late as the teacher has asked them to queue up to go back to class. So, on the 3rd day, he didn't bring his bread and water bottle to canteen and straight away bought Pokka drink. I didn't scold him cos I didn't want him to hide from me what he buys in school. He told me the drink is not cold. Then on the 4th day, he bought the Pokka drink again, this time a different flavour. *faint*hi mummy of 3,,,sori 2 hear that dd1 is not well today.... hope that she gets better tonite and save the trouble to see doc tomorrow.

durian0096, your DD same class as my DS?? Sorry, can't remember. No leh, he didn't tell me the Chinese teacher is fierce. He just said today she scolded a boy who kept walking around in the class. BTW, your DD still can tell you she is 29yo. My DS didn't tell me anything... He just said need to bring the Chinese textbook and workbook to school everyday. And also to buy the xiao mu zhi zou ji but never said when to give the money. You have any idea? -

I gave my DS $1 everyday but think might not be enough if he wants to buy noodle and drink. Might increase to $1.50. But on the other hand, I might still continue to pack bread for him until he said no...mommies..
i received email frm my son form teacher. she told me that the school portal is not ready to be used by P1 students yet. In case anyone wonder how come cannot login to the school portal.
btw, can i survey how much pocket money you all give to your children? i asked my colleagues, some said 1.50 some said 2 dollar. so i tot i should give 2 dollars and my son spend all the money.. now i wanna revert to 1.50 and my friend said if i do so, my son wont be happy... cos she said if her mom do this to her, she wont be happy also... :stupid:
Just now, my SIL told me she gave her P2 DS1 $2 today and he came back with only $0.10 left. Asked her what he bought, she said he bought drinks from the vending machine. 1st time he pressed wrongly and came out a milo. He didn't want, so pressed again to buy another drink and the milo was taken away by a student... :yikes: Then her DD2 likes to go bookshop to buy stationery.. Now her house can open stationery shop liao... -
hi ZY_Mom.
yes my dd is same class as your ds…
she told me a boy always get scolded from teachers because too naughty…she says lucky didnt sit next to her…(the sitting is fix now… sits between 2 boys)
where is your ds sitting?..heee mayb sit beside my dd…
yes the chinese supplement is $10/- can give to teacher next week.
i think for pocket money is good to increase moderately… is easy to add on but to take away is harder…so start with small amt first…give too much $ ha ha will buy junk!!! -
