A Little About Us...

I did not want to start a blog, since it is very time consuming...
I thought l would just share our progress on Brillkids forum, but... if the life is worth living , it is worth recording.

I have been keeping a Progress diary of my DD using Soft Mozart program:
 http://softmozart.com/forum/33-progress-diaries/731-2-year-old-isabella-learning-with-soft-mozart.html
and it helped me a lot to stay organized , I got tons of valuable feedback and my experience helped a lot of people to understand better how to use Soft Mozart curriculum.

The updates will be short, with list of activities  and progress made, if any.

So a little about my children:

DD, 29 month at the moment:

LR, started at 4.5 month, went through 1 year curriculum

YBCR from 6m, done all DVDs
Signing Time 12m to 18 month
Whistlefritz, Speekee, TweedleWink, PreschoolPrep...
Knows shapes, colors, numbers, letter sounds, sight reads 300 to 500 words from LR and YBCR, does not read phonetically yet, LOVES books and puzzles and dolls 


For the past 9 month (since my son was born) we haven't done much.. My DD forgot some things, but we started back our program on January 1st, and I see it all is coming back to her  


DS, 9 month at the moment:

Welcome to my Blog!

I decided to start recording the learning activities that I do with my kids. 
I have been an early learning enthusiast for the past 2 years since I stumbled upon  Brillkids forum, while doing some research on Glenn Doman's method.
 Long story short, I was hooked  :)!


I will share in this blogs our activities, progress and list of the products that we are using.
