      Ya lor, i dunno either.

      I was rather disappointed.
      So i asked the sales lady
      there at Causeway Point
      branch where i used to
      purchase them...

      She said, i'm not sure why
      but our company will not be
      selling them anymore. So, i
      left my feedback for them to
      continue having them on the
      shelves.

      But.... šŸ˜ž

        Shall hunt for the RS VCD again this evening before it disappears in Singapore. Was not able to find it at Lot 1 Kiddy Palace and Toa Payoh Popular during the weekend. Used to see it somewhere but can't remember where. :? It didn't appeal to me before cos of the picture on the cover. I am staying at Bukit Panjang, anyone has idea where I can get it? Thanks in advance!

                      Thanks for the info, kiasu_pig!

                      Will try to grap the DVDs when they are available. Had bought The Best ABC Video Ever and The Best Counting Video Ever DVDs for ds2 last week. Kind of disappointed when the boys told me they had watched it in school before, but ds2 still enjoys it though. šŸ˜„

                        Lili 22:
                        Teachers of my younger boy have always feedback that his learning progress is very slow since last year. Currently in N2, he is still not able to recognise numbers 1-10 and letters A-Z, not to mention about writing them. I am going through 1-5 with him everyday but he just can't seem to remember.


                        He starts learning phonics in the childcare and also MMI this year, it looks like he can remember the sound of the letters better than the names. I am worried that when he has spelling in K1 next year, it will be difficult to learn the words by sound right?

                        His teachers highlighted that he lacks of confidence and we are doing our best to encourage him and praise him when he gets thing right.
                        When he is motivated, he can remember things better. However, he may know some of the numbers or letters today, but forgotten on the next day.

                        Anyone has the same problem before? Any advise, good enrichment class / CDrom which I can try?
                        Was reading thru' the threads and realised that this thread which i had contributed some comments earlier striked me. Was feeling very moody that my 3.5 yrs old DS1 was still not able to recite his 26 letters and count from 1 to 10; he can't read or write (not even trace dotted lines of characters on paper) yet. But just last Sat, we were surprised that DS1 was able to correctly made the sound of the letters from A to Z when asked (he said his pre-school teachers taught him so). But still, can't help concerns on his progress. Just some rantings going thru' my mind at the moment.
