I am sitting in the waiting hall for my car service.
There is a family, 3 kids (2 girls and 1 boy - the yougest), mother and father in the room , who also waiting for the same purpose. The youngest son is very active and like to explore by runnin up and down in the room. This really attract my attention as he is a reflection of my little YexXuan.
The mother is quite annoyed when looking at her son, she has scolded or yelled at her son, she also pretented to beat him if he do or talk something in front her. I can see the little boy want to tell his monther what are those new items he came accross int he room and wanna to share out his little opinion and excitment. He just like to drink water, why? Because in our house do not have this thing - dispenser. Kids are full with curiousity. However, this great thinking has been disappeared somewhere when we are growing up....
Parent, refering to myself too -- Why we just take all these for granted? In fact this is a very good timing for our kids to grow and learn more!!
I shall take it a must tool for my kids to grow up. A way to widen their thinking - to be diversified thinking, spirit to explore and learn more, to find answer for their little doubts. We will have different grade of "why" at different age, this also applied the same to kids. As adult , we know the tools such as "google" , to get for our answer. But for kids, they just need us to guide them along until they manage to find their own highway to their desired places.
YewXuan, or I would like most of kids love watching cartoon. He get to view cartoon from Iphone. Because everytime YewXuan has to wait for daddy or mummy to key the word such as "mickey" in order to search for Mickey movie. He learnt it a very smart way -- impressed daddy and mummy. He explored and trial all buttons available in the screen, and manage to learn bookmark the page by himself - so everytime he could get connected to his favourite movie in just a second. From there, he able to know so much of fund the phone is (how powerful from the newly gadget nowadays).
In order not to make him get addicted, daddy has activated the password function - only let him to use the Iphone after he got our permission (Unlock the phone). This make so much of inconvenient to JiaEnn & YewXuan. They start to learn smarter, remember the password that we key each time, trial and error the number.
A very important habit for discipline , everyime, mummy has to notify how long is the play time and keep alarmed them when timing up. By having this mutual agreement, make JiaEnn and YewXuan to comply with it - easier to return Iphone to mummy without any complaints or resistance.
