Sean’s First Few Letters
Sean, the youngest of my two sons is starting to learn his alphabet! I’m really excited and very much looking forward in his journey in learning his ABCs. He can already say and distinguish letters C, E, O, H and A… and probably more. We started noticing this a couple of days ago when we saw his older brother, Matt, teaching him the alphabet song and both of them in from of the PC watching a video of it in Yutube.
Sean will be celebrating his 2nd birthday this coming February 26, 2010 and Matt will be turning 4 on March 1, 2010. I remember when Matthew was 2 years old, he can recite the whole alphabet and he know each one by heart.

Tips Teaching Toddler Addition
That’s what I have been searching lately, tips on how to effectively teach toddlers simple arithmetic such as addition or subtraction. My four year old is still busy writing down alphabets and words. He also can count to 50 (or more). Since I felt like letters and words and alphabets are no longer a challenge to him, I decided to try and teach him mathematics. But we both are struggling.

Raising a Perfect Child 101
Here’s a unique guest blogger that is unique. It’s unique in a sense that he is not a parent, but his blog post wants to directly address what is on his mind to the concern parents… let’s check the blogging parents guest blog post…
It’s the 21st century and teens these days are becoming somewhat uncontrollable. Parents are usually the first suspects for the rapid growth of juvenile kids. After all, what you sow so shall you reap. Now, try asking these parents what went wrong. Ask them why their child became an outcast of society. They usually have this one common thing among them; pointing fingers.
Let’s see what these parents usually blame for their kids’ actions:
1. Peers
2. Trends
3. Video Game
I can see the point behind peers and trends but video games? That’s like asking a pilot to man a ship. It’s either they usually see their children play video games and do some nasty things outside or they simply can’t make more innovative excuses for their mistakes.

You don’t need a book or “Raising a Perfect Child 101” guide. All you need is to listen to them and know what they do. Take responsibility and teach them virtues they’ll need as they grow up.
Now if only these people would care to listen…
