Impact of Surroundings

Sasha does not watch television at home nor has he ever seen any commercial movies with us. My husband and I, we do not watch television programs even tough they are at our disposal in front of Sasha. I do let Sasha watches the educational Anpanman and Shichida Right Brain training DVD movies to improve his Japanese. However, it is inevitable to control television watching when Sasha is out and about in other people household. First came "Barney" then "Dora the Explorer" and the latest was a movie called "Garuda di Dadaku." I am just happy that Sasha does not demand to watch television at home.

Happy New Year 2011

As the new year begins my personal resolution is to see Sasha to be more independent. He starts off very well with brushing his teeth by himself, going to the toilet and washing his hands by himself. Little things that he can do by himself he does them. This year Sasha is going to be a big brother too, so to be independent is important.
