Alycia has been progressing really well in her spelling, ejaan and Ting Xie. She has been getting full marks most of the time. Guess what the secret is?
I bribe reward her with Kit Kat (which koong koong gave) and Smarties (which aunty Barb gave) each time she could spell all the words during my practise sessions with her at home. Also, before she could have access to the Astro remote control to switch to Disney Channel, she has to spell her words too. This works pretty well on my junkie lover and TV addict girl (max of 2 hours of TV a day)!
I’m a 50+ mum of three grown daughters, now back in my beautiful hometown of Ipoh and slowly rebuilding a quieter, gentler life. After years between Ipoh and KL, I’ve returned to my roots to spend time with my parents in their 80s, my soul-healing cat, and the simple things that matter most. I blog and vlog about family life, home cooking, Ipoh food finds, and everyday moments that make this season of life meaningful.
I do product reviews and accept sponsored posts on my blogs.
I hope you'll enjoy reading my blog as much as I enjoy sharing my day-to-day adventures and mostly boring ranting :P
Thanks for being here. 💛
