Happiness Is A Choice

Last weekend, I accompanied by niece to her Pri One Orientation (don't remember we had that during our times).The principal were running through some slides on "Are your kids ready for Pri One"?

Simple Reading? - check!
Simple Counting? - check!
Communication with others? - check!
Toilet Trained? - check!
Money Sense? - check!

My niece is soooo ready :)

We then left the school and went for lunch together where she had her favourite chicken rice.Afterwhich, she happily grabbed a lovely book from Borders and a box of Ikura from the Supermarket which we gladly bought her.

Lesson Time -

"Hey, do you know how much does this box of Ikura cost?

She took a look at the price tag. "10 dollars?"

"Yes, and do you know how many plates of chicken rice you can buy with that money?"

She smiled sheepishly "erm....don't know?"

"3 plates of chicken rice."

She looked surprised "OH"

"Then how many plates of chicken rice can your book buy"

She scratched her head a little "erm......"

"10 plates of chicken rice"

Her eyes grew so wide and her pitch so high "10 plates of chicken rice?!? WOW!"

She then went running to her mum who was in the other lane and I could hear her repeating every detail about her lastest amazing findings.

Money Sense? - erm...maybe Uncheck! :)
