姐姐 is finishing up Primary 1 book and going on to Primary 2. She is more serious in practising and doing homework than me supervising. Yesterday she said at bedtime "妈妈，今天忘记practise piano!"

Teacher had said during last lesson that all children must practise everyday. So to encourage her, I give her a 'stamp' (or she call 'chop') on the family calendar. She's also pretty happy with getting praises for her playing, and start to practise hands together and play with mezzo piano for the Squirrel's Lullaby from Primary2. Actually I think she is doing OK in her finger works. The only piece lagging is she is not looking at the notes and playing but mostly playing from memory. Well, she will learn... Oh, and singing to tune is another problem. She can sing do-re-mi-fa-so, but she still doesn't really catch the higher notes. But she is ok to recognize do-mi-so, ti-fa-so, so-ti-re chords.
弟弟 is rather jealous that he didn't get to attend music class, so hopefully by next year when he is 3 years old, he will start Music Kids course.
As someone who had been through the strict ABRSM syllabus myself, I am quite happy with JMC. They learn in such an interesting environment, with the colorful books, cute songs (in CD) and DVD. Even though it is more expensive, but it's really a good exposure to music, rhythm, listening. After all, it's the enrichment that matters.
