      my dd likes to draw on the plain erasers that she has. And she does it at home,too. I've caught her doing it a couple of times, and notice that she does that when she is not interested in the piece of work she's doing, or the work (especially Chinese :roll: ) is too difficult.

          Not uncommon.

          Solution: label everything. I wrote my boy's name on the small size Post It and applied scotch tape around it a few rounds to firmly secured the Post It to the stationery, no chance of removing the label easily. I did it for each colour pencils, eraser, rulers, writing materials.

          Come P3, lesser issues with stationery. Think the other children also grow up liao.

          So hang in there 😄

            besides labelling, avoid fanciful stationery. 🙂

                Hi all,


                It is common for children who are having lessons to play with their stationeries. If your child plays with his/her stationeries in class and has been confiscated, and they still continue to do so, can you share your experiences here how to educate your child that it is not right. Confiscating does not work, what approach did or will you use? :idea:
                You might want to consult the teachers whether is your child is paying attention in class or is he/she solely interested in the stationeries. How old is the child?

                  my P4 (yes P4!) plays with his stationery (his latest craze is paperclips and his dream outing is a day at the Popular bookshop stationery section 😓) when i leave him to do his homework in his room. so now he does his work at the dining table and i pack his basic stationery into a basic plastic container. :spank:
                  he does it out of boredom as he does not do it in class.

                    well my DD1 is P2 this year and she also like to play with stationery. Her favourite time pass is to scribble with pencial on rubber or scale.


                    even if I scold her, she stops for few days and then back to square one again… ayyah tired leh… hope she grows out of it soon

                      DS is 8 this year. I think he pays attention in class.

                        Hi! Justin here, I'm still a student, but I have a few things to say.

                        There is nothing wrong with playing with stationery, I used to do so when I was much younger. In fact, it requires quite a lot of creativity and imagination to play and make anything with stationery.
                        Just make sure it doesn't get out of hand! 😂
