See the 10 pics above? You have to use yr concentration to match them. Looks easy?
Naah... not at all!
This is to help kids with maths. Numbers and also dots.
Easy?
Naah!
Another game is to match the other side of the fruit. More for beginners like Justin.
You gotto use the tool provided. You gotto match the answer using the numbers.
(I know.. typical chinaman squating style :P)
"Like this wan...."
So when you're done. You just close your answer..
And flip it to the other side and check the answer using the patterns. So even a small kid can check the answers cos its using the pattern and colour codes.
What tool is this?
Xiao Tian Cai.
It has like more than 10 books that helps our kid to build knowledge in many ways. I forgot what was the term used cos its been so long. His Shichida classmate's mom helped us to buy. And it cost around rm169. That's why I keep it very nicely. If i loose one of the numbers.... *sweat*
And this is another tool that kept him occupied. A Shichida block. Just leave it with him and ask him to solve the puzzle. It looks easy but its not. And it has about 10 pictures for him to try to solve using the different shapes of blocks.
Another thing that he likes to do when he is at home and no one to play with, is to read.
Kudos Mommy! :) Some of my friends say I am mean to my boy, no ipad/computer/games/TV on weekdays and you know what, we don't even have Astro at home. When he is bored, he'll pick up a book from the bookshelves and read or go out and play badminton with the neighbours in the evening. Guess one of the ways to inculcate reading in kids are to have a mean and bad mother. LOL...
ReplyDeleteWai Mann, I promised April and May that I want to buy them Ipad if they performed well in the exam. Now, I regret for what I have promised. I like your stern in educating your boy.
Deletewhen they are not playing ipad , they need to be more creative. But some ipad games also are very creative, i was like HOW TO PLAY???? and they thought me. The best was Physics and I'm an art student. I dunno a thing about physics ok. hahahhah I'd like him to go out to play at the playground but our area is too dangerous. :(
ReplyDeleteYea, that's good! Playing Ipad too much is bad for eyes although some games are very useful in gaining knowledge. I'm now limit my son in playing with Iphone too. I scare he become 'cock-eye' later...haha
ReplyDeletehahahah cocked eye! I'm just worried he is too into the ipad he forgot how to interact with people
DeleteGood wor the book. can occupy them for some time.
ReplyDeleteYEah. And after they are done. I keep it for sometime. And then later bring it out again and they think its new book. Hhahaha
DeleteAlways, there are many more things to occupy them then playing Ipad alone. Reading and playing blocks are definitely the best one among all activities.
ReplyDeleteyeah :) if only we pay attention n think of ways to do so
Deletei like the xiao tian chai games .. can get one for me ah ??
ReplyDeleteI ban ipad, except when on holiday ... I need some peace and quiet during meal time leh ...
