1  BrillKids Software / Tech Support / Re: IMPT: Solution for problems in LR & LMs animated videos on: October 05, 2015, 03:41:19 AM
Thank you!
2  BrillKids Software / Tech Support / Re: IMPT: Solution for problems in LR & LMs animated videos on: October 02, 2015, 01:27:27 PM
I have followed the steps for Windows8 last night and they worked! All videos were playing last night. This morning though they didn't play. I went back to check and the update KB3087040 was installed on my computer yesterday again. Can I uninstall it permanently, or will I need to go through these steps above every day? Thank you for your help.
3  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child - Other Topics / Re: BambinoLUK? on: October 01, 2015, 03:13:51 AM
You can get the starter set first. That's what I did to make sure my son likes it. The starter kit, I believe, includes 4 or 5 books. You'll probably go through them in a week. If your child likes it and you feel like it's a good fit, then buy the rest right away. Don't wait for too long like I did...
4  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child - Other Topics / Re: BambinoLUK? on: September 30, 2015, 02:07:01 PM
I got it for my son when he was 2y 3-4 months. It was perfect for his age. He loved it.  I got a few last books from BambinoLUK 6 months after that and it was too easy for him.
5  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child - Signing, Speaking, Languages / Re: Spanish teaching resources - interesting findings on: May 13, 2015, 08:57:48 PM
Sorry for late response. I have missed the question.
My son still loves Salsa after more than 1 year. We're rewatching it now. My son learned a lot from it. Now he is able to watch Peppa Pig in Spanish and I believe, he understands almost everything.
There is also an amazing site that has extended activities for Salsa episodes http://edu.wyoming.gov/educators/standards/foreign-language/
6  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child - Signing, Speaking, Languages / Re: LO started to say first words in majority language. Shall I ignore or encourage? on: March 28, 2015, 07:14:17 PM
I don't have much experience. My son is 2y10m. He started speaking at 2y4m. Our majority language is English, my language is Russian. His first words were English words for a while, because as you said they are much easier to pronounce. I did not discourage him but I kept speaking Russian to him, read Russian books, show cartoons in Russian, talk to my parents in Russia on skype and did LR Russian. He slowly started blending in Russian words that he could pronounce. Right now, he speaks Russian to me and in a Russian speaking environment, and English to my husband and in an English speaking environment. He speaks in sentences in both languages. Both my husband and I used to tell him often that Daddy speaks/understands English, Mommy speaks/understands Russian. Finding Russian speaking friends (just one family) sparked his interest in Russian, too. Also, I had 2 Russian friends visiting us this winter, one stayed for a week, the other for 2 weeks. I think it is important for a kid to see as many people speaking the languages as possible (you may be able to arrange that on skype?). I would say do not discourage him speaking English, but look for short/easy words in minority language and introduce them to him. It is also possible that your older daughter will get more interested in the minority language seeing you and the younger sibling speaking the language. Good luck!
7  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / Re: Finding an effective EL schedule for your toddler on: January 31, 2015, 07:40:27 PM
Hi,

My son is 2.5 y.o. We are approximately at the same point of our EL journey as you are. Reading is very well, music is ok, math is not so much.

What about doing LR programs and flash cards during breakfast and dinner, reading before bed when she is tired and cannot actively do a lot of things. Maybe Softmozart during that one hour in the evening. You may be able to fit something else during that hour, too.
How do you take her to daycare? If you drive in the car, then you can use audio - listen to classical music, foreign language, math teaching songs (like counting, etc.), audio books...

Good luck!
8  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child to Read / Re: FABULOUS NEW EARLY LEARNING BOOK on: January 06, 2015, 03:43:56 AM
My son (2.5 y.o.) loves Let's read and find out science books. There are several stages of the books. We are going through stage 1. They are sold in Barnes and Noble.
9  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / Re: Flash cards for right brain development on: October 02, 2014, 03:51:56 AM
You can sign up at the right brain education shop and see how it goes. They told me one can cancel their membership within 30 days if they don't like it.
There is a very good blog by Shen Li about right brain education http://www.figur8.net/articles/right-brain-education/

If you want to do RB flashing per Shichida, I believe, he recommends at least 200 cards/images at a time. We also do TW and WInk to Learn Spanish with my 2.5 y.o. It doesn't seem like it's enough flashing according to Shichida. There are other aspects of RB training apart from flashing. Shen Li's blog will help you with that. Good Luck!


10  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / Re: Flash cards for right brain development on: September 30, 2014, 02:18:57 AM
I remember reading Aangeles recommending this website for right brain training. I'm thinking to use the website for my 2.5 y.o., too.
Maybe you can try to search the forum by the name of the website and see what comes up.
