As Nazhan is entering 20 months old of age, I'm getting a little bit worried with his language development as he barely speaks but he totally understand everything that we told him.Plus, he might has some confusion in the languages as we uses Kelantanese dialect and English at home, while the teachers uses Japanese language to communicate with him.
Then it hits me on the head that it might be caused by lack of vocabulary of words that he knew. Then, I decided to introduce flash cards method to help him to learn new words, and Alhamdulillah within only a week he was able to :-
• read the alphabet A-E, O, K
• count 1-10
• recognize few animals such as elephant, cat, dog, duck, horse, bird, turtle, chicken, fish, bear
• recognize fruits & vegetables such as apple, banana, strawberry *he'll say "ichigo" (Japanese language)*
• recognize several transports such as car, bus, train *he'll say "densha" (jap-language), aeroplane *he'll say "hikooki"(Japanese language)*
• recognize shapes such as circle, star, triangle

People always says that baby has a sponge mind, which mean they could easily absorbed anything that we provide to them. But, I never thought that it can amazingly absorb lot of things within short span of time.
The learning session took only 15-20 minutes a day and within 5 days, he was able to learn 30 new words!. Don't forget to praise him and reward him with hand claps and appropriate appreciation when he managed to do well in the learning session, this will help to boost up his confident level.
Even his teacher was amazed by his current development as the teacher didn't teach him any English words at his nursery. They were using 100% Japanese language at school in the communication as well as during the learning session. I must admit that the teachers help to develop his interest into reading as they have storytelling session every morning at the nursery. Thus, it is not difficult for me to make Nazhan keep focus on reading the alphabets and also the flash cards.
I was actually inspired when I saw a video of Afif (Farah's son) and Mia (Siti's daughter) reads ABC during their 20 months old of age too. So, I'm hoping that this video of Shafiq Nazhan learns to read during his 20 months old of age do inspired other moms out there too.
It doesn't really matter if you are a stay at home mom or a full time working mom, it doesn't matter whether your child go to nursery or stay with babysitter. It all depend on your effort to help him learn new thing. All you have to do is to spend 15-20 minutes quality time with him everyday, and Insya Allah he'll passed the session with flying colors!.
The mind of a baby is, indeed, sponge-like. The mind captures everything that he hears or sees. Language development in a baby is something that a parent should not be apprehensive about when the baby isn’t talking much yet. Just focus on “talking” with your baby, even if you think he doesn’t understand you. One day, you’d be surprised at the words coming from his mouth. Just be very careful though; the baby’s mind absorbs everything..so, choose the words/actions wisely before you say/display it in front of them!.
Psssttt: flash cards tu I buat sendiri guna Microsoft Words dan print sendiri je, biasalah mommy cheap skate sikit eheh.

Mia kat rumah..balik2 daddy mommy dia sebut..nandarooo mia..nani kore mia..wakakaka..dia pn dok sama ikut kore kore..wahahah..
Yatie...at 32 months old..Hambali pun takder petah bercakap..a bit worried takut dia ada symptom cam abang dia which is late-talker...tapi pening jugak sebab A-Z hafal both small & big, numbers 1-15, shapes & colours pun mantop..nursery rhymes & lagu2 cd feveret hafal..and bila diajar cakap perkataan, mengikut...habis camno...
might bring him to speech theraphy if by 3 tak improve in terms of conversational...but they said boys agak lambat compared to girls in talking department...
