tried to start from last Oct, however, as my daughter is a small bb, I understand most of them won't arrange interview so just wait until recently got an offer from Kln Tong Funful

What language(s) you and your family members use to communicate with her?

I'm a working mama and need to work quite late so most of the time she is with my Philippino maid.  But of couse when my mother/mother-in-law is looking after her, they talked in Cantonese

My twins are 18 months old too, 我從來冇諗過佢依家可以叫自己果名喎，會唔會要求較高呢？

(Just my personal sharing)

Actually it is quite normal for kids who expose to bi-lingual environment, to be slightly slower on their language development at this age.  No need to worry too much as it is normal.  There are certainly advantages to be bi-lingual and such issues will diminish as they grow older.  But to cope with kindergarten interviews which are just 6-7 months later, I usually would advise parents to focus slightly heavier on a particular language which you foresee are used in your target kindergartens.

Good luck!

many thanks for your advice Ian.  I have read some other topics and understand that sometimes we need to choose either using English or Cantonese when having K1 interviewees, I think I need to make up my mind soon...

我想請教若果我小朋友去到面試, 通常都會被佢先玩玩具一陣子, 然後才去面試室, 不過每次佢都唔肯去要玩, 我現在會用朱古力去引佢走, 不過我都唔知點先可以唔用食物去引他去面試室, 請問冇否其他方法可以用?

社署規定，未滿2歲係唔可以返pn，所以你囡囡9月1日唔可以返pn，要滿2歲先可以中途入讀。有D幼稚園直情唔收9月後出世嘅BB讀pn

要教返多啲廣東話啦，好多間都用廣東話問，起碼要識講自己個名，聽得明啲顏色、形狀、水果，我舊年用左半年時間教，先可以預備到interview.
