Now, a pet peeve of mine is when people post videos or make coments of their little kids or toddlers and all the reading they can do and songs they can can sing, etc. etc.... I need to qualify that remark: It's a real peeve when the video or the comment is indirectly shouting "see, I've been hot housing my kid *pat back* and he's sooooooo smart!!!"
Maybe it's this kiasu, one-up environment we live in in Singapore that makes me so sensitive. Such a turn off.
It will seem ironic that I am now gonna post a video of our own 20 mth old of how she can solve a memory game all by herself! It is a chinese flashcard app I downloaded on our iPad and she had been playing for a few days. I guess the difference is, there was no "hot housing" her and we are all genuinely amazed by what she can do at this age. We're all celebrating her! lol
It was just prior to making this video that I realized that she understands the game and she can play it well! haha... You will hear me giggling like a nerd everytime she chooses a pair of matching pictures. :p
Gotta love the baby. :)
Mei Mei our 天才... lol (That means prodigy.)
I should make a video showing how she can turn on the ipad/ iphone and find the app she wants. flick flick flick
God is so good to bless us with joys such as these.
Ah, but you've got an iphone & wow - ipad too. ;D Looks like we are lightyears behind then!

I don't think you're giggling like a nerd. What I heard is one proud mama amazed at her daughter :)
I am so happy for MeiMei and so proud of her too!!
