Withdrawal from Shichida

Today we officially withdraw our darling from Shichida. She has been with Shichida since age of 2. She is turning 4 4 coming January. Out of this two years, she skipped 3 terms (9 months) as she stayed oversea during that period.

So far, we did not see any significant result on her from this enrichment. However, I still believe in using flashcards in regular basis to broaden her knowledge. When we were overseas, I flashed picture and dots cards to her almost everyday. In few occasions, when she saw the picture that I flashed to her in real life, she will say the name out loud.

Most activities covered in the Shichida method benefit the child if they are done on regular basis. Sometimes I feel the once a week session is to teach parents how to implement the method at home. Read more the method here.

So why we withdraw her?
We feel that what is covered could be done at home. The money we saved in this enrichment could put her in other enrichment that we couldn't teach ourselves.

Will I send my next child here?
No. But I will start the flashcards with the next child at home in earlier age.
