Hindi Poem - 3years 4months old

Zo Ee at 3years 4months old. (27th August 2011)

This video was taken on the 27th August 2011 (2weeks ago). I am still not use to the new video camera as how to edit video; to add date and title to it. I still can't. Sigh... Crying or Very sad I am missing my old broken video camera.

Zo Ee's teachers were very surprised when Zo Ee chose to recite this Hindi Poem in front of the class the other day as this was taught in class while she was away during our Australia holiday. Teachers said she can recite so well! That's why I wanted to capture her in action but I have not a single idea what is it about. According to her teachers, Zo Ee also sings 2 other Hindi songs(adult song) and the India national anthem! Shocked

Computer skill - 3years 4months old

Zo Ee at 3years 4months old. (7th September 2011)

For the past 1 week, Zo Ee has been busy exploring Brainpop Junior website - one title after another. This is actually the first website that Zo Ee shows tremendous interest at and thus has strongly encouraged her to use the mouse and navigating through this website. She is able to control the mouse well, clicking on the selected films and also navigate between web pages; Science - Animals - Food Chain or Math - Geometry - Plane Shapes or juggle between titles that she wants etc.

Microsoft words
As for typing, occasionally she enjoys typing using Microsoft words. So far, there is nothing special that she has typed that worth blogging. Basically, she is experimenting around with typing; changing between capital and small letters. Trying out the symbols; coma, fullstops, question mark, exclamation mark etc. She likes to type a line of words, and then erase them all. She will sit for half an hour during each sitting.

60 pieces puzzle - 3years 4months old

Zo Ee at 3years 4months old. (31st August 2011)



Zo Ee's first attempt in solving a 60 pieces conventional puzzles. As usual, Zo Ee is not keen in doing this type of puzzle since young, so in order to motivate her, Mummy promised her a surprise gift if she managed to finish this puzzle. Upon hearing this, she showed some interest and started slow; piece by piece while watching TV. It took her about 40minutes to complete everything. She actually completed the last 70% within 5 minutes. So it didn't look difficult to her, just that she has little interest. Sometimes, Mummy wonder why is this so since she has interest in almost EVERYTHING.

Magnetic - 3years 4months old

Zo Ee at 3years 4months old. (31st August 2011)

"Mum! Mum! I'm doing some testing." Zo Ee was saying these as she headed into the kitchen with her Doodle's magnets in her hands. "I'm going to try it on the refrigerator. Ooh! It works. I'm going to try it out on the rug. Hmmm...this is not magnetic. How about the cabinet knob? Hmmm...neither is this magnetic too." pause... "Oh Mum, some people call that refrigerator and some call it fridge." while pointing to the fridge before walking away.

That's my little scientist doing her own experiment after gathering some information from the tv , internet or books.

Pencil Shading - 3years 4months old

Zo Ee at 3years 4months old. (30th August 2011)





We found this interesting - Learn Pencil Shading book for 45 India Rupee. Zo Ee decided to try this baby portrait, she commented that this baby looks like her cousin sister; Baby Allaine.

A neat outline sketch has been provided with a finished sample on another page for each portrait. Mummy pointed to Zo Ee as where to shade referring to the finished sample and where the hair's direction etc. Zo Ee shaded all this which turned out to be amazingly well for her age. Since this is her first try, Mummy didn't want to emphasize on every details to overload her....just for her to have a feel of shading is good enough. Nevertheless, never expected it to turn out to be this good.

Science workbooks - 3years 4months old.

Zo Ee at 3years 4months old. (29th August 2011)


Mummy is very glad to have found a few science workbooks for Zo Ee. Immediately, she was so attached to it. Zo Ee even brought it with her to the restaurant. Most of the pages are pretty easy to her and she has no problem doing them herself without any help except to some thinking questions like; Why do you think the Earth is called the water planet? and Which is the smallest continent on Earth? She couldn't answer this question as the picture was not drawn to proper proportion where two continents were drawn to about the same size. Nevertheless, she managed to answer that Asia is the biggest continent, there are 7 continents in the world and She lives on the Asia continent.


Another book on Dinosaurs. Here Zo Ee has drawn a baby dinosaur inside the egg.

Tipper Truck - 3years 4months old

Zo Ee at 3years 4months old. (22nd August 2011)



Zo Ee build this more complicated model with the guide book. Half was build in the afternoon and the rest were build in the same night. She was pretty careless with this complicated model, still needing a little reminder here and there.


Finally, she is very contented with her tipper truck.
