Leapfrog DVDs

I have 2 nephews- one 19mths old and another 3years and 1 mth old. Wonderful lovely kids. Yesterday, I went over to their place and brought along Letter Factory DVD. As we played the DVD, Princess of course knows all the letters. My nephews were also enjoying themselves and singing along while learning the letter sounds. Their parents were impressed and asked me to help purchase the DVD for them. As for me, I'll gladly to do so. Anything for the children.

I wonder why Leapfrog's DVD was discontinued from being sold in Singapore. It is really good and kids enjoy it.

Sometimes I wish and I can just be a SAHM and just spend time teaching my children and home-schooling them. Yes, I want to home school my kids. Do I have the resources? NO. Anyone has any idea how to go about to home school your kids?

Princess knowing her letter sounds

I'm so impressed with Princess's learning. She's able to sound out all the letter sounds of the alphabet. All thanks to Leapfrog's Letter Factory DVD.

I'm getting her to identify the uppercase letters with the lowercase letters. So far she has mastered A to F.

In terms of reading. Princess likes to choose what she wants to read. I let her choose the books. I realise that after awhile, she can actually identify the words to the sounds they make. I feel that this is much better than learning through flashcards coz reading is never boring.

I just want to inculcate the love for reading in her. I myself love to read.
