What we did is to lay some cards in front of her before bedtime. We will then request for a certain kind of fruits and she has to find the right one for us. When she found the correct one, she will feel proud and expect us to applause for her. If it is wrong, she will try her luck and anyhow choose another card.. haha..
Our method somehow works for Zanne. She could recognize quite a number of fruits, eg. papaya, banana, coconut, apple, pear, pineapple and now strawberry! I let her tried some strawberry the other day and next day she picked the right card.. However, sometimes she will still forget if she skip her practice for some consecutive days.

Ezanne gave me a surprise last night. Two nights ago, she had requested to put on the new white hello kitty shoes that I bought for her. When daddy asked her who bought the shoes, she replied that it's from Mummy. I told her that it's from godma instead and pointed at myself and said "me". I didnt realise that she had pick up another new word at that point.
Last night, I gone through a lift and flap book with her where one of the pages acts like a mirror which you could see your own reflection. When I asked her who is the reflection in the mirror and I gave the answer "it's me", Ezanne immediately pointed at herself and said "me". Mummy and myself were surprised that she understands the word "me" cos we never teach her that before. This morning when I recalled, I guess she picked the new word the night before when she wore her new shoe shoe.. :)

Mummy and daddy brought Ezanne to a goat farm last Sunday. Initially, Ezanne did not dare to feed the goat with hay. Subsequently, she managed to feed the goat with the help of mummy holding her little hand. I heard from mummy that GY khor khor is more daring. He fed the goat without anyone's help.
This trip to the farm is educational for the kids. That night when I asked Zanne where did she go during the day, her face immediately brightened up and said "Goat". Now she could recognize the real life animal and learn another new word.

Ezanne has became our little domestic helper. She likes to help out (or rather play) with watering plants, sweep and mop the floor. And she seems to do the housework seriously.. keke.. Take a look at the video..
