yea vanichezhiyan, I'm wondering too! Through my observation on my daughter, she couldn't speak Cambodian anymore simply because my helpers went back to their country for just 1.5mths??? Why is it so? Why she couldn't recognize not many words though I'd been carrying the flash cards session everyday with her and also YBCR few mths ago??? She seems enjoyed it normally... Can anyone can tell me what has been gone wrong with her???

Hi nikita, 

It would be highly appreciated if you could you email me the playlist , my email is  [email protected]

thanks for taking the time & efforts!

Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas!!!

I am thinking, can this method be used for potty training?

Dear Frukc,

hahaha, I'm wondering about the same question too!! 

To be honest, I'd tried this method for my dd potty training too, unfortunately the result is not as good. However, she can hold on a bit longer than before, just wondering could it because she is growing up at the same time?

Dear Mira,

Karmas to you!!! Very good explanation, you have made a clearer picture  to me too though I'm sending my little girl in SM class!!!!

Dear Margaret,

Amazing!!! How wonderful!!! Congrates to you and your daughter!!!

Hi Teoh,

Just wondering what is the minimum age to join the class? I'm also thinking to enroll my 2yo daughter to yoga class in Gymboree ,Tropicana citymall too, hope she could have better concentration.


Dear Ivory,
Are you a full time mother? I am not, am working mother. So do not really have time for my kids which sometimes make me feel guilty...

Pls do not blame yourself for not having enough time for your child. As a mum of 2yo with a helper at home, I don't really spend much time with my daughter too. Most of the time I just spend about an hour the most to read,  to sing, do some worksheets from Shichida, 5 sets of flash cards once a day, may be evening activities like swimming or painting, that's all... I don't work, but always going out to visit my friends or ex-colleagues in the afternoon ..sound even worse right?  Do spare half an hour  quality time per day is more than enough rather than spending quantity time , no pressure ! You know what, working mum is very great to me!!

To Sheesheebaby,
Salute to you!   you are really capable mum, taking care of your lovely child yet have to do house works, it's really a tough job!!!

Dear VitoriaC,

My daughter is attending SM in Centre Point and going to starts her 3rd term this coming Oct. I'm also sending her to playgroup in a church near my house in SS19 ,Subang Jaya every Wednesday.

As for home practise, I do flash cards only ... Have tried the rest eg ESP, linking memory, none of these she looks interested, so i would only do it here and there when feel she is comfortable with

I'm a full time mummy... So happy to meet a like-minded mummy like you here too! Let's me ask around who else is interested to join us, but where  and when will it be most likely?

May be I pm you my phone number so we could discuss it further more??

Cheers!!!

Hi VictoriaC,


Oic, I'm so happy for your twins as they have such a great mum!!! Let's Hope your son will enjoy the class in Heguru!

Will you keep us update your son's progress may be a month or 3mths later? So looking forward to hear the good news from you V.

Hi VictoriaC,

Fees are charged monthly so compared to Shichida it is a little bit more expensive.

I'm just wondering why you send your twins to Heguru now instead to continue in SM as the fees in Heguru is more expensive? Heard it is located in Midvalley, isn't it? At which floor then?

Hi Mandi Quiring,

My girl just entered the 2nd term in SM class, she doesn't like the linking memory part yet

Here is the link which posted by the members of this forum earlier ( sorry, i dunno how to post the brillkids' thread here), pls log on to www.sgparenting.com, you will find lots of SM info thru this link. I personally find very informative.

Strongly agree with u Wynnie Mom

hi Wynnie mom,

Many thanks for the advice

I do have tons of books and she always ask me to read for her, eventhough she is very sleepy or tired... Her favorite books now are Peter and Jane, Letterland and nursery rhymes...Her preference always changes so I usually expose her with some other books every 1 or 2 weeks time.

Yet, she doesn't know the normal words like cat, dog, Peter and Jane, even A - Z though I flashed her this words before and pointing to the words when i'm reading to her... Could it be somewhere went wrong????

how nice!!!   A big congratulations to both of you Nadia0801!!

i started GD cards when my daughter was 3 mths old, we both were very enjoyed during the period! Unfortunately, we stopped the flash cards session totally as she lost interest in the cards for nearly a year till she was 18 mths old. I'm so happy to regain her interest after sending her to Shichida Methods ( SM) classes... I'm flashing her the picture cards  which I bought from SM and she really loves it! As for the GD cards which i didn't finished last time, I mix it with the SM picture cards, now she seems like very enjoy the cards session especially before her nap time in the morning  She even asking for more and more! So, I do PC slideshows and youtube alphabets songs to her after lunch time... then I leave her to play other activities even though she may ask me to do flash cards again and again, I  will just promise her to continue the next day or read the story books for her instead.

Well, I do have a question here too, Why my daughter didn't look like as she is able to read at this point? hmmm,I think it should be ok as long as I do flash cards before her, she would be able to stimulate her right brain though she doesn't know reading yet!

 Anyhow, i'm very happy with her enthusiasm in  participating all this learning activities 

Dear waterdreamer,

I managed to buy the antislip fingercot from " Daiso "- a Japanese store where selling all kind of things at very low price. Just wondering if your country has this shop... It really helps me to flash faster and manageable due to its better grip on the cards!
