Education

Education is the learning of knowledge, information and skills during the course of life. That is why as a parent I would like to teach my 2 year old daughter to learn the basic education. Toddlers are too young for “school” of any kind, but they do love learning. By simply introducing letters of the alphabet as part of other activities, they will catch on amazingly quickly. Since I was pregnant with Akesha, hubby and I have agreed to teach our daughter to speak my language (tagalog) and my dialect (bisaya) as well. When Akesha was born I have been speaking tagalog or bisaya to her, while hubby will speak English of course. At her tender age she is able to understand when I speak to her on my language which is pretty awesome. I am glad that my parents also helps us on educating Akesha. My parents sent us educational stuff from the Philippines like flash cards, books, and etc. I hope that I will be able to continue on teaching her about Filipino stuff. How about you? How did you teach your child/children?

Its good sis that you still find it important to teach her own native language..Para kahit hindi siya dito sa Pinas lumaki there is still a part of her that is..Keep it p sis..Sana lahat ng Pinay Mommies do that..
