Unschooling spirit

1. JV said she was pretending herself like a train....humming 'choo choo' while she was walking down the stair case of Jing Si Tang. But she stopped humming it and stopped moving her hands like the locomotive trains when there were people coming up from the downstairs. 2. Curry was hot. JV took a piece of ice and tried to ease that spicy feeling. As the ice cube didnt melt soon, she placed her fish meat on top of the ice cube and pretended that she was 'driving' a ice-cube boat....letting the ice-cube boat to move around her bowl. 3. JV refused to let her bolster covered with the new cover i made her for her birthday. Reason: she wanted to learn those words like 'hippopotamus','butterfly', etc which were printed on the inner cover. 'I have learned the word "hippopotamus". But i have not yet spelled "butterfly",'She said. Now that left me dumb founded......how could i resist her learning? That's how she learnt....always learnt from anything and everything around her. No wonder she didnt use much time to adapt to learning of Ejaan when she entered Std 1....though she only started to learn them when she entered primary school. Unschooling spirit seemed to have rooted in her. That's how imaginative she can be.....
