yeah, i don't understand why Shichida programs don't spread out in the US. anyway, it seems like with other tools like LR, Little Pim, we can still teach our kids at home.

I will sure be reading to my child when the times come. it's said that at 18th week, fetuses will be ablt to hear their mother's voice. I still have to wait 7 weeks more. Today i watched several live childbirth videos on youtube and offcourse was amazed and moved.  And I'm a frequent reader of babycenter.com too.

your baby is 10 moths now. what does she know so far?

Hi Ella,
Thank you for your welcome and your advice. it's good to know that you got your baby attend Shichida school. I'm living in California and i've searched for Shichida school in here but i haven't found one. i've read about the methods they use but still want to know more about them. I hope you can give me little help sometimes.

Good luck with your baby

Hello,
My name is Jenny. I am so glad i have a chance to join this forum. I expect to have a really good time here with other moms and mom-to-be. I am pregnant and will deliver in March, next year. I've read through many topics in this forum as well as articles in the website and feel so excited that i could not wait to plan lessons for my baby.

The problem i have is my husband and i both are not English native speakers. we would like to talk to our baby in his/her early years in our native language which is Vietnamese. So i am thinking of introducing her flashcards in Vietnamese first and then English ones later. is it the right choice? Do you think i should use vietnamese to talk to my baby even while i am showing her/him English flashcards, slideshow...? when i show him a picture of car with the word "car", should i show a picture of car with the equivalent word in Vietnamese (ô tô)?

It seems like it's not so easy but i think this forum will be a big help.
thank you
really happy to chat with you all.
