Hi,

Same thing happened to me also. But since I have been waiting for the Arabic language course, I bought it straight away  . It would of been brilliant, if the 25% discount did work.

 Congratulations to you and your daughter. It really is inspiring to hear your story, thank you for sharing!

We love YBCR and anything by Titzer (I discovered his program in 2008). The discover DVDs was on our 'to buy list'. Thank you, for making me want them even more now

Hi PokerDad,

Thank you for starting this thread, I always love book recommendations. I watched the video you embedded, it reminded me of Marva Collins'  way of teaching. Rafe Esquith's and Marva's philosophy seem to be similar. I will order Rafe's book, (as I doubt, the library has his book here in the UK). Can't wait to read it!

Hi lzp11,

Thank you so much for the welcome! I am glad that you are in the UK as well. We love starfall and the alphablocks here. My second son loves that program. I have not heard of Numicon, so will be interesting investigating that, thank you for bring it to my attention. I will have a good read around the forum, I love it already. If you don't mind me asking, how much was it to have Rightstart math and all the kit for level A delivered to the UK, did UK Customs and Royal Mail charge you? Also, did you get the new version or the old one?
I recently ordered from the USA this device called the flashmaster, for my 6 year old to learn his math facts. I was charged by the UK Customs and Royal Mail before I could have the item delivered. Now I am hesitant to order things from the USA.

Thank you ones agaib for the welcome. It's nice to have parents you can share the journey with

Aaaw he is super adorable...

Thank you for your time and for the link. I will have a read!

Take care!

I am amazed you read to him for 3 hours, that is really great. You sound like a great mum. Who dedicates good time with her son. Makes me happy to hear that, keep up the rewarding job.  You mentioned your son was late talking and walking. My eldest son was exactly the same, even his teeth were late. But let me reassure you that ones my son spoke it was no stopping him. I'm sure your son will become an excellent communicator. My eldest enjoys reading books to the baby. However, the two year old, he constantly says he can do it all himself. So refuses to have big brother read to him. I'm sure it's the difficult two's. You mentioned you are using the Tweedlewink videos. How is that going, are you enjoying the videos? I am on the fence with that one. What is your overall opinion on them? 

Take care and hope your all well.

Hi MamaofWill, thank you for the welcome.

My children are 6, 2.5 and 8 months. With my eldest I feel I lost out on great deal of early learning with him. At the time I was at university and really never got the opportunity to do much with him. I did find YBCR when he was 9 months in 2008. However, due to health issues, I did not manage to do the program justice. I am finally a stay at home mum, and I have more time now, to really give my two younger ones a good opportunity. We currently use the YBCR videos. I am hoping ones I figure out what math program I can start with my 2.5, I will get that. With my 6 year old we are doing Singapore math and the Soroban which we started 3 months ago. But had I done math with my eldest when he was younger, as I did with the reading it would of been much simpler. Henceforth, I am determined now to really become all about math. How about you, how has your early learning path been so far? Thank you ones again for the welcome. You are my first Brillkids buddy

Hi everyone. I am a mum of 3 children, and I look forward to interact with like minded people.
I have found that people are not interested in discussing early learning or the various methods and materials available. Certainly not where I live or the friends and relatives I speak to *sigh*. Hopefully, I have found it here. I am super excited to have this opportunity, to educate and foster a love of learning, to my chidlren.

Thank you

Lund
