Thanks lily_liu817 for setting up the FB account.  Will pm you shortly.

I also have troubles finding the prince's clothes, there are so many princess clothes clothes everywhere but just none for prince.  I'll check out some costume stores in Central this week.  Let's share any information when anyone finds the prince clothes.

I still didn't buy the black trainer bcs it is difficult to the one in black (no other things). My girl still wearing the white one. It is not easy to found!

My son wore the addidas trainers to school and the school teacher said it's fine, so that's sorted.  I think he was a bit upset when he told me that the teacher said he needs to wear black shoes for school (on certain days), so we acted very quickly so he won't be different from other kids :)

Hi channgaki, nice to meet you!!!

Hi 2lovelykids,  thank you.... my father ended up buying the adidas ones, my son wore to school yesterday and i asked him last night whether the teacher said it's ok, and he said yes, the teacher said it's ok to wear to school.  Cos previously, he was wearing a black trainers with yellow and white on it, and he told me the teacher said i can't wear this.... sigh.... poor kid.

I got the black trainers from regulary sports shop (giga sports) only.  His trainers are black with coloured logos.  But I called the school before I bought the shoes, I told them it's impossible to find purely black trainiers, the staff said they understand this and so any black trainers with coloured patterns or coloured logos are acceptable, as long as they are "mostly" black.

I think mine are from New Balance, but I also found addidas have the black trainers too but with the stripe logo.

Hi 2 lovelykids,

Why does watching tv makes them less able to concentrate?

My son loves puzzles as well.... maybe should i say used to? ... recently he is busy playing with his other toys from his birthday presents, so puzzles have been abandoned for now... haha.  I think he memorises the location of the piece too... it amazes me how quick they can memorise a puzzle piece and yet seems to be slower on his ABCs and 123s.

May i ask where did you buys black trainers for school?  I seem to have trouble finding black trainers, there's leather shoes but no trainers?  Thanks!!

2lovelykids

I was so amazed to see my son reading out the English poem last night, Roses are red, Roses are red, Violets are blue, Sugar is sweet, And so are you!

So sweet, especially when he kept pointing me and repeating "so are you", so funny and sweet....

Hi kenoism,

My son has an elder sister so they can spend a lot of time playing silly games together including camping under bedsheets etc...  He likes watching cartoons too, especially Disney Channel, but the teachers said maybe because of this, his 專注力 is not very good, so we're working hard to cut down his TV time.  He likes all kinds of cars, esp. falling in love with McQueen.  So we bought him some story books on Cars and a McQueen puzzles (approx 30 pieces).  At first we thought he's too small to play puzzles, but I guess he just likes it too much, he plays the puzzles at least a few times a day and now he can do the puzzles by himself independently.  I guess he just memorize the location of each piece, but at least he's busy with the story books and puzzles which he actually reduced his time on TV.

But I guess having a sister also makes him less interaction with other children.  When we go out with my friends who also have kids about same age, he only likes to follow his sister all the time, guess he feels too comfortable with her and getting dependent on her.  So I hope I can start to help him making more friends of his own.

I wonder if CPSK will hold any Christmas party or school picnics that will involve parents in K1 this year.  I think it's time for parents to get to know each other and make friends.

Hope more parents can join our topic here and share some thoughts!

Hi 2lovelykids,

Yes... unfortunately my husband and i have to work last saturday so didn't go to the parents day.  I could have sent my parents there, but i prefer to talk to the teachers directly, still yet to see what they think of my son's behaviour at school...

What kind of activities do you do with your little one?  I seem to be running out of ideas... i play toys with my little one, watch cartoons, pretend fight, painting, play the piano etc.... but it seems to be getting a bit boring... any ideas?

2lovelykids

Hi kenoism, thanks for your comments.  So you missed the parents meeting last week.  The teachers were very busy that day and I overheard some of them that even had to miss lunch!  But they were still very patient and spent enough time with each parent which I really appreciated.

Hi 2lovelykids,

Nice to meet you too!!
I missed the parents meeting on saturday cos my husband and i both had to work... but the teacher said she would call me and discusss with me over the phone, so yet to see what she has to say.

My son's english was better when he was younger as we were living in australia, but since we came back to hong kong last year, his chinese has improved heaps but his english is worse now :(
He can speak chinese in full sentences, but english is just a few simple words which doesn't make up a full sentence, but at least my helper can understand him... so i guess it's just the opposite from your son :)

He likes to play with kids that he knows.... like if we hold gatherings with his previous pre-school's kids, then he will happily be playing with them.  But i notice that on his assessment from school, the social status always says needs to be encouraged.  So i have a feeling that he doesn't play much with the kids at school.... so i think it takes a long time for him to warm up with kids.  With adults, it's easier cos the adult will be talking to the kids first & warming them up, but kids all have their own mind sets and they don't know how to be friendly with other kids at the same age on their own, so they need an adult to sit them down and introduce them properly and start to play together etc....  which is hard at school cos the teacher is trying to teach them things like abc, going to toilet, eating afternoon tea... it's structured daily so makes it hard for them to play together i suppose?  I think it's normal for kids to like to play with adults, but i think they will eventually like to play with other kids their own age as they grows a bit older :)

Hi,

I agree that this topic is very quiet here.  My son is in K1A3(am).  Nice to meet you all.

I went to the parents meeting on Satuday and had good chats with the Chinese and English teachers.  The teachers are very nice and caring, they know my son well and can tell his characteristics clearly.

My son's Chinese is not good, so when I was talking to the Chinese teacher, I was quite worried because it appears he speaks a lot less than other children at the same age.  I think other children at his age can speak full sentences fluently, but he's still like a baby with short simple sentences.

But when I talked to the English teacher, I was a bit surprised that the English teacher said he actually talked a lot with her and speaks good full sentences and wide vocabularies..., I finally felt quite relieved that he's not really that behind, but only has his own language preference....

Anyway, I think my son is not good at playing with other children at same age.  I observe that he feels more comfortable with adults than with children, the teachers also said he prefers to sit and talk with teachers instead of talking to other children.  Is this normal at his age?  Are your children starting to make friends and play with children at their own age now??
