Interesting Kids’ Conversation
Last night in the car, Isabel sang a CNY song, just 1 phrase: “大团圆, 大团圆”
Ian: “Wow! Bel-bel, why do you know this song? Your teacher also teach you this one ah?”
Bel: “No, I learnt it myself. I am good.” (chewah! so arogant!)
Ian: “No, you must have learnt it from the school. School is good right? You learn so many new thing, right?”
Bel: “Okay lah, but I don’t learn this song wor. I do colouring, drawing, writing…”
Ian: “Yes, you go to the school and you learn a lot of things.”
Hehehehe! I am so glad when I heard that. Last year, there was a time Ian refused to go to school. I took out some storybooks and asked if he could read them. And then I told him, if he goes to school, he would learn a lot of new things, and one of the skill is to be able to read storybooks by himself. I showed him my collection of books, and told him that he can read all of them, if he is able to read by himself. From then on, he loves going to school. Furthermore, he also realizes that he does learn a lot of new things in the school (including new songs – his favourite)!
