Stuff about Quan

Quan is doing well at this stage.
He had mastered the art of reading. He can read all by himself quite alot of books and most of the time I'd let him read by himself and only assist him on more difficult words. However, he still wants my interaction. he'll request me to read one page and he reads one page. This is also a great way of participating in what he is doing.

My current task is to get him to read more Chinese books. He can read simple chinese words but not too many.

In terms of language ability, he can speak well and in fact rationalise with you to an extent that you cannot fault him or punish him. It can get challenging at times. He is also vv creative and is capable of making people happy, say nice things to adults.

In terms of height, he's now standing at 1.05cm and 20kg for a 4yo. Very much taller than his peers (at least half a head) and definitely looking much older than them.

Recently, we brought him to Hong Kong for his 4th birthday and he had a great time with Gigi, my best friend's daughter who is of the same age. He cannot stop talking about her and Auntie Dawn and about going back to Hong Kong.

Then he came along to a short trip to Tioman and survived the long bus ride to Malaysia before taking a long ferry ride to Tioman island. I wonder if Kai could make it without fussing too much - we left SG at 7am and reach tioman at 3pm.

Quan is growing up well except that he still dun quite eat vegetables and he can get quite lazy when it comes to writing & coloring. Something I have to put in more efforts on.
