In fact that is what I did with my P4. He takes to the tablet pretty comfortably. I bought him that Creative 7in Ziio with the stylus together with a year subscription to a local Chinese portal for him to pick up his Chinese. It works to my satisfaction and there are bonuses like books to read with audio assistance, writing the correct strokes, stuff that interests him not found anywhere else besides books.

That's interesting, i'll check out the Creative Ziio!

Hi Cervelo, which local Chinese portal is this that you've mentioned?

Check this post for an honest review - http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=25110&start=220 and the site is http://www.etutoronline.net/. He's also hooked on the \"Journey to the West\" on Channel 8 now, without subtitles. The Ziio does help in the process as well.

Hi,


Just wondering about CCAs as my boy will be in P3 next year and is keen to join the Scouts. Does anyone know when and how the kids get to choose their CCAs for P3? Can they choose only 1 CCA (he may want to take up swimming, too)? Also, does anyone know on which days and at what times the Scouts and swimming CCAs are held? Need to plan for transport. Thanks!

I had wanted to do that for mine last year when he was in P3. But with tuition at the House, homework, traveling, etc, he only had time for Swimming. I figured he needs to let loose and have abandoned fun apart from staying too much in school. This year he is in Basketball.
