<![CDATA[Preparing your Child at their Early Stage is it Good or Not?]]>I have a child and I really emphasize the importance of a good education. That's why when she were still very young I began to work with her so she would be very well prepared for school when it came time. A lot of people do not realize that the early years of a child are so impressionable and that the mind can soak up all kinds of information if we just teach them in the right direction. Thats why its very important to approach them to study at their young stage... Is it good or it feels like im forcing her to study? :roll:

I would say it should be a balance. Taking time off your kids from playing games on gadgets and teaching them some useful early learning or bringing kids to the library is definitely worth while.


Learning and teaching doesn't have to be dry and boring. They are many teaching materials a parent can adopt.

I'm using the Children Learning Reading program to teach my son reading. He's definitely enjoying it and I'm pleased with his progress. http://www.mumsafari.com/category/learning-reading/
The words on the word cards are all in upper case letters. for parents who want to teach your own children reading, please ensure words on word cards are printed in lower cases.

At what age i should start to teach her? My girl is two. Im reading books for her and she always flip the pages. I know its common for them at this age. Just need more advice.


my boy 3 yrs+ also flipping books, he sometimes will inform me that he is going to read and take a book to flip, sometimes he does it so fast (include skipping of pages), that i think he is more of playing than \"reading\" it...

i have been trying to teach him phonics for A,B,C but having hard time to do so as he is not that keen participant..need to find a good way.. :lightrod:

3 yrs+ means born in 2010? You may visit here for more methods shared & discussed?

She is learning when she's enjoying it. When she's not enjoying, you might feel yourself forcing her to learn.

agreed 🙂

My girls enjoy attending their tuition classes. They incorporate a lot of alternative learning methods to help them to learn.

i have also bought it, had tried a few months ago in 2-3 times, on recognizing the phonics but have no success. I think my method is wrong. Btw have you bought the deluxe one? Can share does it worth the money for the deluxe? i bought the standard one.

How do you get your child interest in the phonics? my child is bored when i do it.

No choice but Sg academic system is pushing our kids to the limit in a way that if you dont take up extra classes, they r gonna suffer in primary school 😞

Like maybe make it fun/enjoyable for her, make sure she learn and understand new stuff, not just studying, I think that’s the common misconception which may have dire consequences (like stress)
