How long is each of the class?

HR class?
*
The class is one hour per session and you'll need to be with the child.

What's it covered in 1 hr? And the cost?
*
Flashcards, games, story telling, history, writing, etc. All done at very fast pace and that's the intention for right brain training. Toddler class RM450/month.

Just wonder do they have the option like 1-2 times/ month classes?

Not sure about that but I doubt so. I plan to go and try out Gymboree next week. They have free trial for first class.

Already done that....but most of the time we will take a walk around the neighbourhood + playground in d evening.

Only missing part is the montessori materials, which i'll explore.

Why don't you try making flashcards for a start?
I make my own flashcards from wild animals, ABCs, numbers, transportations, occupations, fruits & vegetables, flags etc etc.
One day flash like 50 to 100cards and trust me, babies can know what you are showing to them.
I continued doing so and increased the number of cards after first flashing around 20+cards to my 9month old girl and she can correctly point out all the cards after few days. She can't talk or walk yet at that time but would stare tentively at what you show them. So doing this earlier the better because as they grow, they can't concentrate so much as they will be walking around.
I have now made more than 1000cards and still growing.
It's cheaper this way and you can choose what you want to teach your kid.

It's OK if they don't show any response but they know what you taught them. They will only respond when they are happy or in the mood to play with you and that's the time you can test them.

Done that d. But im a lazy fella, so i bought those flash cards. Baby is kinda bored wif it now. Unless i buy more/ DIY more. I even use the poker cards since recently was CNY.

Yes it takes alot of effort make those cards And yes they will get bored showing the cards they already know over and over again. There are other ways to utilize the cards such as doing memory game.

Own self can do it for free but refuse to. Instead, willing to pay money by doing the same sweat.gif

Not to say free also because you have to factor in the cost of cardboard, printer ink and glue. I'd say around 25 cents per flashcards but it's way cheaper than buying as those will be around 50-70 cents per piece. So the saving is about 50% to 70%. The pro is you can prepare whatever material you want as to compare buying because the choices in bookstores are really limited. Con is time and effort is needed.
