Hi All,


Guys, I have seen most innovative and interactive baby book in iTune store, to record your baby precious moments from the time you feel her.

I think this is the first time ever that anybody has combined the flip book feature with the interactivity in an app. We can add comments, photos and videos etc. And also the height/weight chart feature is cool. As they rightly put in their description, this app brings both the physical and digital experiences together.

This can perfect gift to the soon to be parents or if you have kids you can show that you love them more.

You can check the app here, http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/babys-first-years-lite/id545912502?ls=1&mt=8

Check out the app and you will thank me for sharing this information.

Thanks for sharing Sweety88. Sounds really interesting. My sis having first baby so will definitely check it out! Sounds like a nice gift!

[quote=\"troubled\"]Like to know any difference between BrainFit Studio & BrainFit Classroom?

Hi
BrainFit Studio does only brain fitness training. BrainFit Classroom is another unit under their program which offers English enrichment and they incorporate some form of Brain Fitness training which supposed to boost the learning ability of the child.

I believe you can find more info from their respective websites.

Hi, thanks!

Anyone with children in their program, can give some comments or review?

How accurate is their mind mapping?
Is their report detailed?[/quote]Hi troubled (I hope you are not troubled anymore! ),

My girl has been to BrainFit at Novena and has improved a lot. I am especially happy because she focuses much better now and I have a much much easier time teaching her. Also less forgetful and school results had a big jump end of last year although I did take leave to help her prepare. My girl really enjoyed her sessions there. This is important because school has so much homework which she dreads! I really don't know why the school must give so much homework, it is quite crazy. Anyway, it is good to see her have some fun, which is also helping her brain develop. I think it has been worth it. Good luck!

HI, anyone heard of thomson road baptist kindergarten? planning to register my child with them for next year but havent decided yet. hope to get some feedback on the school and their teachers.. cheers :idea:

My girl graduated from the school last year and now in P1. My personal feedback- Nice environment with good and dedicated teachers. Both academic and physical activities sessions are well balanced. Many outings and festive seasons planned througout the year and my girl enjoyed her preschool very much. The only thing I felt was K2 syllabus was a bit too difficult at the end of the year.. perhaps they were just getting ready the kids for the formal schooling in P1. Now my girl in P1, found that her P1 is so much more easier than K2... so don't push your kids too hard if they find it hard to complete their K2 homework. Other than that, teachers very caring specially wish to highlight K1 Ms Lim (with very long tied up hair-with naturally loving-heart for kids) and Rao Lao Shi (Chinese teacher), all the kids love them! Last but not least the forever nice and understanding Mrs Lim, administrator who is very supportive and patient to all parents. Thank you TRBK for giving my girl a happy preschool life! Hope this helps for parents looking for a preschool in Toa Payoh, Newton, Novena area.

Hi,


I am a new mum who has just joined this forum. While reading the posts by different mothers about children's bad handwriting, a mum mentioned that Brain Revolution has helped with her child, not just in handwriting but on other issues as well. Actually Brain Revolution conducted lots of educational talks about children's learning that may be very useful for parents in understanding their children better.

You may be interested to know that they are having parents workshops during the March school holidays at the Ang Mo Kio and Jurong Regional Libraries. Parents may attend the talk while the children will have activities including free balloon sculpture, free door gifts, etc..You may go to http://www.brain-revolution.com for more information. This talk may not be about children's handwriting but there is a talk about the brain of a child in learning excellence which will be very informative for parents. There is no charge and it will be a good time for you and your kids. Stay happy.. all the mothers out there!
