1  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child Encyclopedic Knowledge / Re: 19mth old baby Encyclopedic Journey on: September 06, 2009, 06:13:43 PM
hi, thanks for the comments. I am full time WORKING mum so i only got a few hours in the night with her.

I started at 6mths with her on maths, english and mandarin and only started encyclo to her abt 14mths old. This is because i realise she is pretty fast in capturing reading words so I wanted to expand her encyclo K. I didnt know if it will work.

With GD, you are supposed to flash the pictures to them for 10 days saying the name of the person. Then another 1 fact for another 10 days. there are total of 10 facts on the back of each card. The only thing i dont like about this is my gal cannot read the name of the inventor or composer or the name of the country so I had to make my own with the same photo but the name at the back so that she can read the words.

I also find that the facts behind is too long to read if doing the flashing fast..I used this in between new words flashcards so as to inject some freshness into the sessions.

I am doing flags, inventors and composers. Now i did my own famous artists, instruments and shapes.
She can pick up words from books already so guess its important to give them extra knowledge.
We can always revise these with them all the time! even bath time, i will tell her ' ok lets do composers' then ask her 'Franz? " and she will say 'Szubert', Me : Ludwig? and she will say ' Beethovan'

You guys can visit youtube.com so see her advancement and my flashing method... to share with all! I believe if we work hard enough, our kids will see a better future and a nicer world to live in next time! thanks!
2  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child Encyclopedic Knowledge / Re: Could anybody who bought doman "bit of intelligence card" comment ? on: May 22, 2009, 04:49:05 AM
Hi, I am the mother of the little girl in the video of her with her GD's BITS cards..We have the flags, composers, Inventors, ORgans of the body etc.

The pictures are all great and facts are brilliants. My gal picked up a lot from there. But she gets bored with them already because according to GD, you are supposed to flash like this

10 days - name of the picture i.e. Flag of Brunei
10 days - says fact no. 1 while flashing i.e. saying 'the capital of Indonesia is Jakarta'
10 days - fact no. 2 and so on..

The things i do not like about it are
1. Kids are not exposed to seeing the words. I rather they know the flag of Singapore and be able to read the word Singapore too.
2. the sentences are too long for rapid flashing. So kids either get bored or we read too fast to sound interesting..
3. Its expensive.
4. Limited.

above are my personal views only. Thanks!

POSTING A VIDEO OF MY GAL READING KINDERGARTEN SENTENCES AT 19MTHS OLD..

I AM A FULL TIME WORKING MUM AND I SQUEEZE EVERY MIN I CAN TO STIMULTE MY BABY.. IN SINGING, IN PLAYING OR JUST TALKING WHILE WALKING..READ LOTS OF SIGNS AND ADVERTISEMENTS ON THE WAY..

I HOPE TO INSPIRE MORE PARENTS TO DO THE SAME. OUR KIDS ARE GENIUSES, DONT WASTE THEIR TIME!

JUST A FEW MIN A DAY WILL DO!

SO DONT WORRY IF YOU CANNOT STAY AT HOME.. JUST MAKE SURE YOU DONT WASTE ANY MIN WITH THEM!

GOOD LUCK PARENTS! YOU GUYS ARE ALREADY FANTASTIC!

She is so adorable.I loved watching this. It gave me many excellent ideas for teaching new things to my dd.

Thanks! Hope it inspired more parents to do the same!  I just think if we really flash and stimulate them correctly, their right brain capabilities will be nurtured. Now she only needs to be flashed once or twice and she can remember the word.
She even surprised us recently by actually pointing out and saying 'Einstein' when she saw Albert Einstein picture on the wall!


where do you get your cards from?
great job with your little girl
she is so smart

Hi sorry for late reply.. I made some home made ones and bought some from Glenn doman. She is so fast, I need to keep making and sourcing from brillkids. Actually I use some pictures from Brillkids media library and just print onto A4 and laminate.

This feature will be part of Little Reader HOME PLUS, which we will begin beta testing after Little Math beta testing.  I expect this to be early next year.  The record video function is not the only new feature in HOME PLUS so we still need quite a bit of time.

But again, we hear you all loud and clear! smile

For those who already purchased the home basic edition, do we need to pay more to get the home plus or you guys planning to use points or whatever for us to upgrade?
Its not very fair for us to pay more since we already purchase your first edition.
You should factor this in too..

Hi Daniellie! happy

That's exactly our intention - we would like to give everyone an opportunity to upgrade their Little Readers, even if they have bought the first version, so that no one will have to wait to buy the program!  yes  We have devised an upgrading system to cater to the needs of existing Little Reader users, and hopefully all of you will find it very easy to use!

When can we expect this feature?
8  BrillKids Software / Little Reader - General Discussion / Re: The Create a Video Function on: November 16, 2008, 05:30:36 AM
I think this is extremely important because being able to burn into VCD or DVD means

1. Any caregiver can play the video to the child which is great for working parents. Easy for any maid or grandparents to just play a disc.
2. We are able to revise the category with the child.
3. The child can see it while on the go (in the car), in grandparents house or anywhere. It can be shown to the child with their cousins and that creates a good learning home environment!
4. The child wont get bored because we can create a random environment instead of just sitting in front of the computer and not allowed to touch the keyboard!

I hope you unlock ASAP!!!!! THis will make Little reader the best !
