Schooling?
It sometimes bothers me to think about having to send my kid to 'school' next year. Jien is born few days short for another new year so I always think that it is unfair to start him early as he will be short of few months just practically do nothing but resting, watching TV and playing at HOME. He is just 2y 4m! Come on, giv him a break!
But lately, I notice something different of him. He is eager to go to the playground now. He starts to show some boredom to be frank. He can't wait till Saturday so that hubby will bring him for 'excursions' at parks or zoo or mallsssss....(again?) Even on Sundays when we are in hometown, he also showed some levels of 'boredom' unless his cousins are there to play with him.
Perhaps it is time to let him go. At least once or twice a week I guess. I was thinking of music and art class for now. Nothing acedemic. He has at least 20 years to do that so let him soak in the thing that he loves first.
Actually he is quite a fast learner; He could write most of the alphabet now and recognised both the capital and small letters. He could also write from 1-20 now..not bad huh?? He is also learning to count now. Shapes? Sap sap sui!!
p/s : Please..........we do not force him or anything but he is ever so in love with his drawing board and this is, I think, is his 5th ones....
Oh...I just hope I am doing the right thing.....CLASSES, here we come!

Great job, mommmy, your Jien sounds like a really smart boy. 2.5yo and can do alphabets, numbers and shapes - that's fantastic. Reminds me of my son :) when he was that age, he could also recognize words and read simple stuff but not good at art like your boy, haha. For moms, this sort of progress is really amazing esp with first born, eh :)
wah, he's really very advance huh...
there's a music class (kinderbeat) in bukit raja which we send rachel to... she enjoys that very much...

huisia,
aiyoyo, Jien can't hold a pencil properly also la!! Using his drawing board and simply doodle only...writing all senget2 one! :p
wei tee,
taukeh! dont want autocad la...ask him to explore 3D modelling better la! at least he can do his monsters, cartoons, trains in 3D also not bad mah hor?? :) I suppose your daughter know how to draft already la??! :)
Think you're doing such a great job! Jien is such a smart kid...thanks to you!!!
Wow...Jien is certainly a very bright boy! I think it is time for more new stimulations and new esposures, he will absorb like a sponge! Don't think of it as 'school' lah, it is just another fun place for him to play!
gosh, this reminds me of my Joshua...never part with his doodle board. it's true, let him develop his own interest naturally. no need to force-force wan. otherwise, you might get opposite reaction. :-)))
