Using hand gestures (tiger mouth)
Nowadays, Im very good at expressing myself. I started to use hands and facial expressions to tell Mommy my displeasure, happiness; and even on figures... Like just now, I used hand gestures to show Mommy - a tiger mouth that howls. Probably, I caught some similar scenes while I watched documentaries on animals. Mom likes to switch to Animal Planet (one of the TV Channels) and describes to me about animals. No doubt, I kept asking for Sponge Bob shows; she tries to distract me by imitating some animals' actions. Not that she dun allow me to watch cartoons, but she thought documentaries and probably some News (like Channel News Asia) will be more effective - and I must start from a young age, to see how the journalist speaks and so on. As it is, my pronounciation is not really that accurate. She tries to correct me but somehow, my tongue is not that cooperative yet. Well, long way to go. Speech and Drama Class may be useful in my school for now; but practice makes perfect at home. Mom always believes - all good behaviour, manners and social etiquette starts from home.
