since ur maid and mil is taking care of ur child, i dun think u nd to hurry to send him to CC.
yap, just scare my baby cannot socialise...as i see fren's children...so cute...still know how to dance dance...heehee..
ds is 14mth, didnt go for any classes or sch but when he watched those kids show the kids dancing inside, he walso will follow. for such things, i think parents and family members can teach. =)
heehee..think ur kid must be a faster learner...so cute can dance also
R you a stay at home mummy?
if you r you can actually teach a lot of things to your child at home. i feel that at this age school can wait.
if you want him to socialize and interact more with other kids, you can ask around the forum or check out in your neighbourhood for kids around the same age as your son/daughter. then you can have play dates where they can play and learn together too.
this is what i personally feel. for me, I m considering to start my girl on playgroup (few hours kind) after she turns 2, but not sure yet, as i m expecting twins in October. gonna see how i cope, then decide if i can "homeschool" all my kids.
Just started work...so no longer a stay home mum. my MIL and maid can't really speak english properyly...so thought can send him to play and learn and socialise too.There's actually no hurry to send your child to a cc or playgroup just to socialise. Kids up to 3 years old mostly still engage in parallel play/associative play rather than play actively together (cooperative play).
I'm a stay at home mum so I homeschool my child (she's 2yo) (you can chk out my blogshop for the learning aids I make for her) and she learns plenty from me in the day and hubby (when he gets back from work). I think if your objective is to let your child do some form of learning (which he isn't getting from his primary care-givers at the moment), then by all means send him to the cc or playgroup for a couple of hours a day.
thks for the compliment. But i think tt all kids are all clever and learn things v fast. sometimes we just have to spend abit more time to teach and guide them along. and sometimes actu they know, just that they didnt show us so we thought they dont know. haha..
we're staying with my parents. my parents also cant speak proper english. so i will ask them to speak 100% mandarin to ds while me and hubby speak english to him. i rather they speak 100% mandarin to him rather then mixmix.. but sometimes they will learn tgt and try to speak some proper full sentence in english.
