My daughter is moving next week for 3 yeras to GUYANA and she is teaching my granddaughter LR. It will be nice to know if anyone is living there or have been there at any time.

I found the books very good except that the easy ones anr not so easy.
I am a little lost in to what book have words that are being review in a given lesson of the curriculm.

Is there any guide as to what book goes with waht lesson number?

Please i have two question on LR that maybe are answer in the manuals, sorry if they are.

1) I have customize many images of our family, toys etc. How can i accept the new version of LR that the system is telling me without loosing al the customization i have done.
2) How can i take the customization from one PC to my 2nd PC that i use sometimes to play LR to the same baby?
Thanks in advance.

Tom, thank you for your information. I will look if there are instructors in my area (Peru).

Now that they arre entering vacations will be a good time to start.

PokerDad, thanks for the video. I came across it and found it very instructive.

Sorry for not replying before because i had my 9 month old grandaughter come to stay with us cause my daughter was in a trip. I finally make up my mind with the ipad 2. I hope it arrives soon. I have the apps recommended in the other thread.
i will keep posting as soon as i have it and start downloading apps for me and my grandchildren (4 yrs and 9 month).
Thanks a lot.

I bought a XOOM Motorola but had to cancel cause it took to much time to arrived. Now i am evaluation if i will go to Ipad 2, Xoom (new will come out soon) or Galaxy Samsung.
Several month have pass since the androids came out. Is the APP market big enough to compete with IPAD2?

If you had to make that decision now, which one is your choice?

Is it coming out for androids soon?  When.....??

Nadia,

Thank you for this valuable information. that app ceetainly looks very good. I sent a linnk to muy children and hope they can get ir for their kids.

One more week till i get my xoom (motorola android) and i hope i can get similar apps.
Karma to you.

As we can see, you had a very difficult task trying to select the best ones. I specially was impressed with Owen that even though he did not seems to speak being just 16 month, he did a wonderful job choosing the correct answer. This gave me more ideas on how to interact later on with my grandaughter. Congratulations Owen' mom.
Also i think Hannah at her 19 month is incredible good. i hope my grandaughter will sometime be somewhat like her.

Congratulations to all the kids,moms and dads for such an excellent job in teaching their kids.

Thanks a lot to Brillkids for the extra price for a Volume of the Fables. I am exited in waiting for instructions on how to redeem them.

BTW if someone has the 2 fable volumes and wants to give me their discount voucher code i will be more than happy to receive them.
Congrats to all and enjoy teaching.

I start veiwing the youtube videos on abacus addition and subtraction but i am not convinced if this can be taught at such an early age as 4 years old.
So far what i have seen is that you need to work a lot on complements of 10 and of 5 in order to do the math.
Are any of your kids working with abacus ? If so, what age are they and when did they started.
Please i would appreciate if you can share your experience?

I received this week an abacus and start reading more about it. I would like to teach my 4 yr (almost 5) grandson.

I am afraid that it will create some dependency on it and will not be able to do the math wihout it. I am consious that kids start adition with their fingers but they are available at all times.

Are there any kids using it? Any tips?
Thanks.

Thanks Krista,

I found many good ideas to play with my 7  month grandaughter. One of her favorite is Peek a Boo when I appear from one side, forma another and up and down.
Karma for showing that page.

It wiould be nice if someone is having a giveaway of Little Math.

Kezia,
I have 2 grandsons  using LR but since they are in different homes, each one is on a separate computer and only once in a while we use a PC for both of them.

Do you know if there are any plans for including this functionality on future version of LR?

Amelia,

I haven't start Chinese with my grandaughter but i have been using it for myself (maybe trying to be ahead of her).
My daughter has decided to wait cause she is doing LR in english, Little Pim in French and we are native spanish speakers.
Since i do not have previous knowledge of Chinese maybe your case is similar to mine.

I hope sharing what i am planning to do will help and someone that know more can correct me is something can be done better.
While flashing the words I do my best with the pronunciation and repeat.
When in the multisensory part I explain in english or spanish and go on.
On the third part just listen while the images are shown.

I understood from other threads that even our pronunciation is not as good as it should be, the baby will pick up the correct pronunciation that will be said randomly by a man, woman and girl.

Believe it or not, I am starting to recognize some simbols but have to say that my pronunciation is terrible and my dedication is not as it should be.
Hope you share your experience when you start.
