We find it amusing that one of the most highly commented topic this week is "What Is The Fastest Way To Dry School Shoes". It must be due to the cold and wet weather we are currently facing. We don't mind the weather, just keep our shoes dry in time for school. However, this is not a problem for the innovative parents. Parents also found innovative ways to label school textbooks to speed up packing of bags.

Of course we can't survive a week with the following discussion:

• SK vs SJKC vs International School

• SK vs SJKT vs Alternative Learning Center

Other challenges we face this week include

• How to help your child with homework when you don't know Chinese

• What to do when your child keeps being left out of positions she wants to take up in school

• Bullying and racism in school

• How to Schedule daycare, school and revision time

P1 parents have their own special issues including

• Caned on the palm for talking during lesson (asking a friend because do not understand)

• Cheated of the change when buying stuff in school

Over on our blog, the hottest topics are

• Where to buy school textbooks

• Where to buy school extra co-curricular uniforms

• How to make Chinese New Year Angpow lanterns

We also added some new videos for P1 and kindy parents and kids to learn Chinese together through songs on classroom vocabulary like "I need to go to the bathroom", "line up", "stand up", "keep quiet", "I don't understand", "I love homework". Check it out here. Phew! This has been another busy week for us. Look forward to more next week and beyond.
