Little kids are soooo smart!!

[HoppyFrog420]

Well, if you have any little ones you might know the Channel called Noggin! It has show on 24/7 for pre-school aged children..

anyways, my 2 year old daughter (will be 3 in December) is watching a show named "Ni Hoa, Kia Lan" which teaches some Chinese.. She is saying everything correctly in Chinese!!

It is amazing how well little ones pick up these things soooo quickly! AMAZING!!!!

sorry, had to brag haha

Congrats on the genius child Hoppy! You deserve the brag.

They say the best time to learn multiple languages is before the age of 5. Keep her at it- there are a lot of Chinese speaking people in the world.

Thanks BB, I just hop she keeps it up.. My first language was Korean because my parents were in the Army and I grew up in Korea.. But since moving to the states when I was 9 I have lost the language.. such a shame!

Dung Flung Doh Ma Flang dang ching chong flew duc at chew ! ( English ) = That is really good hoppyfrog that your daughter can speak chinese this will be a very useful language for her to know as she gets older ! I myself have worked with many chinese during my life . And they have been kind enough to teach me how to spell and speak their language ! Although if i was working and living in china i would be kind enough to teach them how to speak english if they asked why i spoke a different language in their country ! Peace and All the best !

Until you get deported, explain that your American, call home to prove it, and your kid answers, "Ching, Chong, Dang nit ho dat yo" and then you end up in Pakistan sewing soccerballs.

[HoppyFrog420]

lovely stories everyone!! IM SCARED!! haha

We are trying to potty train her now and man this is all im doing! :hairpull: :hairpull:

my coin collection is going pretty quick because she gets to put "monies" in the "potty bank" every time she uses the potty.. it gets sooo frustrating though because she is fully aware of what she is capable of doing and she will tell us more times than not that she wants to pee-pee in her panty!!

Yesterday she decided to un-dress herself (pull-up and all!) and run around saying "naked baby! naked baby!" and I played along and told her as long as she doesn't pee pee on the floor we'll be ok.. yeah that last about an hour before she looked at me and peed everywhere!!

Oh the joys of parenthood, am i crazy for wanting another one!?!?!?!
