Son had Math prelim yest. Unfortunately, I couldn't postpone his Math tuition last night. Wanted him to sleep after lesson ended, but he insisted on revising for today's CL prelim.

Hubby worked till very late last night and as such couldn't distract my younger one. Felt so torn between 2 kids as I usually accompany my boy when he revises. Really have to think of something to prevent this from happening again.

I will let the younger one watch Educational DVD & let the older studies in the air con study room.

Really need to find ways to entertain my younger one…very very stressed. Problem is she is sticky to me, or I would have asked parents to look after her. Time to dig out some educational DVDs or CD rom. Thanks for your suggestion, mummy so kiasu.

I received a sms that the 2012 top school prelim papers will be ready by next week. Will any parents be buying for their kids to do? At this point of time (exactly 4 weeks to go), should we just focus on areas they are weak at or continue to do practice papers? :scratchhead:

2012 prelim??? :yikes:
That's fresh out from the oven !!
With just 4 weeks to go, I won't buy anymore.
Still have many sets of 2011 undone.

In such situations, I usually let ds2 do whatever he enjoys. I will ask him what he likes to do. Sometimes to the extent of allowing him to play with my handphone which he loves the most. No choice, have to close one eye. The objective is that he’s happy and does not disturb me.

My dd has finished most of the 2011 prelim papers especially Maths & English. So I am hesitating should I buy more to add more load to her at this point of time. Sometimes, too much may backfire!
