A note to BrillBaby, I’m not trying to get double points for the same material as I don’t think I received any points for uploading the files earlier anyway (I only received points when the files were downloaded).
Hi CP. You really can't earn points just by uploading in the downloads section. We only earn them if someone downloads our files.

Natuklasan ko itong website na ito nung 7-8 months pregnant plang ako. Sobrang laking tulong! Npaka-supportive ng mga tao kahit sa mga topics na hindi related sa Brillkids products. Napaka-swerte ko nga dahil bago pa ako nanganak, nakapag-plano na ako sa mga itututo ko kay baby! Salamat sa inyong lahat Brillkids!

Me too, I exported the custom lists I've made but did not export them to another folder so I lost them anyway when I installed the new version. It makes sense to back it up into a different folder but I didn't (maybe because I was too excited to try the new release!).
Anyway, I have a suggestion to make. In the equation presets, it would be helpful to show the math symbols (+,-,etc) even when the voice-overs are deactivated. I've noticed that when the voice-over is on, it shows the symbols but when it is off, the symbols doesn't appear. It would really be helpful if it'll show the symbols so we'll know when to say "plus/minus,etc" and "equals".
Also, is it possible to make an update to Little Reader too? The faster playback options would really be nice!
Congrats for the improved release. Me and my daughter are enjoying it a lot. It's a wonderful software!

That makes sense! =) Maybe it's just my attitude towards math (it's my least favorite!). One theory I'm pondering upon is maybe this exam tests how our eyes sees more yellow than blue & vice versa..it's a matter of "seeing" the more dominant color and not actually counting quantities. Why didn't it use same colors? (like show pure blue dots on one slide and more on the other and asks us which is more?)

Hmmm, I got 100 twice in 10 tests but math isn't my strong point. Attached is my score  Something to note though, I read fairly fast so maybe this test rely greatly on how "fast" your eyes can scan the page? I'm pretty sure that I cannot perceive quantities or know the difference between 88 and 89 dot card! I don't think this exam tests quantity perception

Hello Pinoy Moms! Naisip ko na mag-karoon tyo ng get-together (kasama si baby of course!) to talk about our little one's progress, struggles, and everyday experiences with LR or the Doman program.
We can also take advantage of this time to swap with each other's flashcards so we can save time making them! I know we're all busy but wouldn't it be swell if we all could meet and have our own special "mommies club" especially super konti plang ang Pinoy moms who are teaching their babies using LR? :-)

Wow Lappy, I didn't know na Filipino ka pala! =) Mga moms, may interesado ba sa inyo na mag-swap ng home-made flash-cards para ating babies? My Cameron is only 3.5 mos old & super busy nko sa kakagawa ng flash-cards nya.
I'm doing all Doman's program (Reading, Math, E.K) kaya I'm sure you all know kung gaano ka-time-consuming gumawa ng cards =) Baka meron sa inyo gusto mag-swap in the future so we can save time making cards. LR is great but in places like the highchair, mall-trips, bath-room, flashcards are the only options kse. Let me know! Thanks!

Hi Kimba and everyone! I've started my daughter on YBCR video when she was 2.5mos (the recommended age is 3mos-up). I just tried showing it without making a commitment to start the program but she's already REALLY interested in the words! She would laugh & her eyes would twinkle when the words are displayed. Her interest is the same with the flashcards. However, after a couple of weeks, she LOST interest! Her eyes would dart elsewhere. Should I continue the program or give it a pause then try again when I feel she has regained interest? Our program is in jumbles now because most of the time, she's not looking at the words at all no matter how enthusiastic I am so I tried to repeat showing the words I feel she didn't "see". Please advise. Thanks!
