~ first few times .. during snack time ~
Children: Join me Teacher, join me friends!
Cher Lim: Ok! Children, you may eat now.
Child J: * very carefully scooped out the vegetables (though auntie cut it till very small, it still cant escape his sharp eyes * Cher Lim! I don't want this...
Cher Lim: Why? Vegetables are good for you!
Friend S: Ya lohz! Ya lohz! See, I got eat!
Child J: But... But I dont want lehz, I don't want this wiggly wobbly thing!
ps: he really used “wiggle wobbly” to describe the vegetables
Cher Lim: * tried not to laugh * Cannot, you must try to eat!
Child J: But I don't want...
~ xth times ~
* at times just to make him eat the vegetables, “reward” got to be used *
Child J: I don't want this wiggly wobbly thing! * scooped out the vegetables *
Cher Lim: Cannot! I already told you that you must learn to eat the vegetables!
Child J: But... is wiggly wobbly you know!
Cher Lim: vegetables are good for you, you must learn to eat them
Child J: * attempted to put it on the table *
Cher Lim: Child J! If you don't eat, later you wont have chocolate biscuit from me
Child J: Huh? I want lehz...
Cher Lim: Then you must eat the vegetables. I will give you one chocolate biscuit after you eat the vegetables
Child J: * unwilling look * Oh... Ok!
* at the end of the day, Child J attempted to eat the vegetables but with GREAT struggles - after a spoonful of vegetables, he will quickly drink a mouthful of water. *
~ recently ~
* Child J is able to eat the vegetables without much struggles or much “threat” by Cher Lim *
Child J: * scooped up a long vegetables * Wow! I have never see such a long wiggly wobbly before!

u remind me e dinner GS had recently...
=) ya ya ... some improvement from him recently so decided to blog about it. What are you waiting for? If Child J can do it, so can SecretLady! HeEhEe!
haha.. but i ate wat.. jus nv eat raw
"good job!" =p
Wow, Cher Lim is also a POWERFUL cher leh. :)
Can help me teach Isaac to eat his veggies? He hates them too!
most of the times, other than "nagging session", Cher Lim used hard approach to make Child J eat veggies as no veggies = no chocolate biscuits. Opps!
Ever try using reward-system on Isaac? Or perhaps soft approach? Is always tough getting children to take the first step to eat veggies but so far for my school's children- once they take the first step, seem ok after that.
=) Or maybe is the "authority" of teachers? Cause Child J quite afraid of me so when Cher Lim say "eat!", he must be thinking "better eat!". Haha!
Yes, I think sometimes children listen more to teachers than to their own parents! My students also like that sometimes, haha.
