Hey Buds

Where u get the alphabet sandpaper? DIY??

Bought together with centre's bulk order last time.
I promise to put up the DIY sandpaper thread soon.
Don't waste money. Easy to make on your own. And
definitely much cheaper.

Hey buds!
I've been thinking how to get the alphabets printed out big enough for tracing..no idea still. do u mind telling me how to create the alphabet and also what size before cutting it out and pasting on sandpaper?
Just today my gal saw the letter 'w' and mistaken it for 'm' *faint* i really need to do something!!

Heyya soomum darling... my sincere apologies.
I've got all the barangs (things) ready but have
yet to be able to put up the DIY Sandpaper yet..
Yes, i have the templates done too, so it's easier
for you guys to print it off my post. I even have
variations for similar alphabet cards. But it is just
that i'm currently in post-op recovery & also that
buds_hubs is on very long leave dis time, so i
have less & limited time to be on the PC.

[soomum]

Oh u take good care. Wish u a speedy recovery! Don't worry about it. Will wait patiently..good things are meant to wait

[buds]

Oh boy... Now i'm kinda nervous.

I just hope it WILL be good enough...

Hey buds

How r u? Hope tat u r ok ya.... :hugs:
Happen to see this thread, interested to try this sandpaper finger tracing, yea.. think hands on will be v effective for young children. I stil remember when i try to teach my dd abt colours pointing to object tats in e particular colour n also use colour paper paste on cardboard paper to teach abt diff colours, she cant seems to rem the colours. after tat, i tried a jigzaw puzzle on colours n let my dd play n fix them, she learn n remember them immediately, n she has fun with it! Okie... hope you get well soon ya... hope to hear fr u soon k...

[buds]

Yes, doin' better... thanks for asking.


And busy spending quality time with the family lar. Hubs still on leave.
He has a lotta stuff planned for us each day, so as not to waste his long
leave. I'll put it up as soon as when he returns to work around mid of next
week, okie. Can't wait to get into it!

Hi Buds,


I am struggling to decide which kind of letter ‘a’ to teach my gal as we know there are more than 1 way of writing letter ‘a’. Can you enlighten me on this?
