watching my dad bathing the pigeons.
he learned the word "pet"
his pet is Hero, my family's black Rottweiler.
my dad's pet is pigeon. -_____-
i hate the birds.
the orchard.
my dad, very very old school and conventional.
he loves orchards.
this is his new orchard.
buah longkong.
no idea what is it called in english.
i was in my confinement so i was confined at home and the little boy enjoys going to the orchard,without me.
hence i have no idea what he does.
remember the chopping durian action?
now that we are back in KK, he saw a brownish round shell on the floor and he muttered longkong.
he picked up words really fast now.
i was impressed he can remember that fruit. hehe
picking rambutans.
he wants a RED one.
pulling the rambutan.
years ago, i remembered he was afraid of touching the rambutan.
maybe he did not like the hairy feel.
organic durian
played on the swing
the father practices surfing.
fresh water from the mountain.
believe me, it was refreshing and tasty!
dad went to shoot petai.
organic petai.
these days everyone talks about organic this, organic that.
whilst we enjoy, where does the little one go?
there were too many mosquitoes waiting to feast on fresh blood, so matty hid here.
isnt this mosquito net funny?
imagine lifting up the net and u can feast on the dish!
haha!
barely 2 months old, we bring him everywhere.
including the orchard in the kampung.
is he lucky or unlucky?
luckily no insect bites!
the cheeky boy loves the chicken!
i hope he did not torture them!
see? he picked up the chicken!
*gasp*
even i dare not touch them!
haha
lousy squeamish mama
a real silly boy
what's in his hand can u guess?
a small chick!
chill baby chill...
dont get over-excited!
he tried to kiss the chick
-__________-
i think he did kiss?
oh no!
and he asked me to take a photo of him kissing.
i was antsy so i got a little clumsy.
i want to quickly snap and get it done with so that he would release the fragile chick.
at night for dinner,
we had musang king, from Bentong.
this box costs over 200 ringgit.
some people said there are fake musang king.
one of the many ways to identify is that musang king has wrinkled skin.
2 months after confinement, i dare not went overboard.
just a few seeds to seal the craving.
some said durians can be eaten during confinement because it is heaty.
some said angin.
i dont know.
:S
i waited till after confinement.
check my title.
i mentioned waldorf.
what is waldorf?
it is a type of childhood education.
just like montessori, which everyone has heard of.
waldorf has to malaysia and hence people are becoming more aware of.
it originates from Germany.
While getting the links, i found some info which is in line with my parenting philosophy but ive greatly LOST the battle! :(
A cornerstone in Steiner’s educational theorems was the fact that children go through three stages in their lives. First, from age 0-7, the spirit inhabiting the body of the child is still getting used to its surroundings. This explains many standards in the Waldorf curriculum such as the standard of teaching the alphabet at age 7 or 8. During the second stage, from ages 7-14, the child is said to be driven by imagination and fantasy, and during the third stage, starting at age 14, the astral body is said to be driven into the physical body, creating the onset of puberty. - See more at: http://earthschooling.info/thebearthinstitute/?p=1872#sthash.OOu1uAq6.dpuf
Modern researchers, however, have just recently made this connection when they recently announced, “Watching Television may Quicken the Onset of Puberty” (Dr. Laura Markham, 2006). In her article, based on 35 different research studies she states that this connection has a lot to do with the hormone melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland in the brain, which plays a key role in regulating the body’s internal clock. Light emitted by television screens suppresses melatonin levels in the blood, which disrupts sleep patterns of children and teens as well as the age at which they enter puberty. It is also interesting to note that the problems of early-onset puberty have baffled researchers since 1950. This was the same date in which televisions became widely owned in the United States.
This is not the main reason given when Waldorf Schools state on their websites that children should not watch television. When I reviewed 40 Waldorf school websites I found that 36 of them stated their main reason for discouraging television was that it hinders the imagination in the child.
