ZaC has learnt about 80% of the alphabet. Mummy uses visual references to teach him, e.g B looks like the number 8, P is like a flag, O is a circle, E looks like a comb, etc. ZaC also loves to listen to Mummy read a book about the alphabet borrowed from the library. He will read out the letters while Mummy continues the sentences.

Teacher has feedback that ZaC is an inquisitive boy, always asking questions! He has been 'promoted' to the playgroup class, where he joined some of his previous friends.

Besides pointing out the letters wherever he goes, ZaC has moved onto creating them using chopsticks! He can create the letters 'I' & 'H' & the triangle shape too. It has become an activity at the meal table.

Last Saturday, Daddy brought the whole family to the Kite Festival at The Promontory @ Marina Bay. Auntie Pauline & family met us there. Daddy wanted to show ZaC the giant kites brought in by the overseas kite masters. Many people were already flying their own kites by late afternoon. Daddy also brought his own kite. However, the wind was not very strong as there are several tall office buildings surrounding the location. Even the kite masters were unable to get their huge kites up in the air after several attempts. Nevertheless, ZaC had fun admiring the small kites in the sky with Titus & Phoebe.

Mummy is slowly introducing ZaC to puzzles and he loves them! At first, he will ask for help but his self confidence builds up as he practices piecing the puzzle pieces together. Great job, ZaC!

ZaC's favourite playmate - Daddy! Here, he is blowing kisses on Daddy's face. Just like how Daddy blows his tummy, which never fails to leave him giggling!

After watching the NDP, catching the drummer boys at Vivocity & reading a book about parades, ZaC has been hooked on being a 'drummer boy'. He will ask for chopsticks and starting banging on any surface. Finally, he got Daddy to buy a drum for him. Now, he can march and beat his drum at the same time!
