      thank you SAHM_Tan πŸ™‚

      What abt the Chinese iFlashbooks? The slip said it is optional to subscribe - is this supplementary to their textbooks? Or a nice to have?
      I tried not to be kiasu with all the subscriptions else they end up as White Elephants on the bookshelves πŸ˜‰

        The iFlashbooks is interactive textbks. Dd1 is ok to read the printed Chi text and story bks so not subscribing.

        My kids go thru the YS very quickly. I usually subscribe 1 level so don't mind 2 titles. Last yr dd1 had the chance to read Level 1,2 and 3 of YS. She wanted level 2 this yr. So will be getting level 2 for each title.

          DS bug me for YS so I’m subscribing this year. I made DS1 read SA in popular - levels 3 and levels 4 (he reads level 3 of YS); to try out. He didn’t like it but could not tell me why. So I dropped the idea.

                  Aiyoh, the form has that stated lah. I'm hoping DS2 can 'graduate' to the next level next year so I only need to buy 2 levels.


                  I did however, have to explain at length why Ds1 will be the one getting all 3 magazines each month vs each kid getting what they want - the official explanation is for DS1 to be Ds2's mule.

                  In other cases, I had to resort to communism at times (ie govt owns everything but kids can borrow) when they refused to share. Sigh...the lengths I go to. But hey, kids learn about different types of governments in a jiffy. πŸ˜›
