In the November issue, I talked about the picture book The Giving Tree. I mentioned that I am a Tree, with a little boy (my son) and a little girl (my daughter) beneath me. A month later, these two kids have speedily transformed into two tiny “koalas”, day and night clinging to the Tree! In early October, my husband and I were hardhearted enough to leave our younger daughter with her grandma while we took our older son to Singapore on holiday. There were some side effects to the wonderful trip… Back at home, my little darling Chloe sticks to me like glue. Meanwhile, little Max just can’t let Mummy go to work after 5 full days of attention from his mother. I landed in Hong Kong, but I feel as though I am in Australia, what with the bear hugs from my “baby koalas”. I have to admit that I do enjoy this sweet kind of emotional attachment from my kids. Yet it comes with a little bit of pressure. The dilemma lies in the fact that every parent hopes their children would be independent, without relying too much on their parents. Although it might be a bit early to confront this issue when my kids are still so young, independence has to be nurtured at a young age. To be honest, I am far from good in this respect. I haven’t even succeeded in “letting your baby sleep on his own” which the local Family Health Service advocates. In this issue, world-renowned psychologist Dr. Louise Porter explains “resilience” in her behaviour article as “the ability to bounce back from adversity” (p.52). To enhance your child’s resilience, there are guidelines that parents should follow. We hope that this article can help you raise an independent child, as well as teach emotional control. Lastly, the 10th Classics For Kids Christmas Charity Concert (see advert on p.6-7) tickets are now on sale! This is our first time to collaborate with HK Ticketing to give you a more convenient ticketing experience. Limited seats, so act fast!!

What’s up
I used to be an elementary school teacher and now I am a full-time mum taking care of my son, Miles. The best parts about being a parent are watching our son achieve every single big and small developmental milestone, seeing the biggest grin on his face after a long hard day, and bonding with him through breastfeeding and reading story books. The most embarrassing thing our child did to me was pooping all over his back and on my pants when we were out at the mall once! I had no extra pair of pants at that moment! I was all alone! As a mother, you just wanted to make sure your child is happy and clean so I cleaned and changed him in the nursery first before we hopped on a taxi to go home. I bet the taxi driver found us EXTREMELY smelly! I learn this lesson by bringing an extra set of clothes for myself every time we go out just in case.
As a parent, what aspect do you think you could improve/ do better? I am learning to work with my husband as a parenting team. We both find it very important to let our son see us as a team and know that we both love him very much and want him to receive the best. Name a recent children’s book or movie/programme. Why is it rewarding? One of my favourite children’s books is Love You Forever by Robert Munsch. It describes an evolving, warm and loving relationship between a boy and his mother. My heart would ache and my eyes would tear up every time I read it.

To many parents, “child violence” is a heavy and serious subject, equivalent to criminal offense. When hearing about kids demonstrating behaviour such as beating, biting, yelling or snatching things, we tend to label them as little brats or “Kong Kids” in local dialogue to make light of the matter. But once the seeds of violence have been sown, it poses serious consequences to their development. In this feature we will share several “Child Violence Scenarios”. Some you may have encountered before, and some you may have disregarded and/or neglected. We hope you can take this journey in facing this situation together with us. 對家長來講，「幼兒暴力」是一個嚴重的詞，不太會用到。對於在越來越多小朋友身上出現的 打人咬人、口出惡言、搶玩具等行為，我們傾向用「小霸王」、「港孩」去形容他們，彷彿整 件事情因此變得沒那麼嚴重了。但暴力的種子一旦種下，對孩子將來的成長或會有很大影響。 今期專題我們帶來一些「幼兒暴力事件」，有些你一定也面對過，有些你可能不曾為意。我們 希望你能我們一起正視這個問題。

Wilson is an energetic toddler. He loves active play but is inclined towards having temper tantrums especially when he is with his parents and doesn’t get what he wants. Wilson will often hit his parents or his helper when he is having a temper tantrum and has recently begun to spit at them. Most of the time he does this when they are out of the house: at the grocery store or in the shopping mall. And his parents are often just too embarrassed to stop him, because they know that if they try to punish him he will have a temper tantrum. Wilson is learning that violence is an effective way to get what he wants. He is very likely to become a bully.
Any act of violence or aggression: grabbing toys, hitting, biting, pinching, spitting, pushing, punching, slapping and breaking things must be disciplined every time a parent, teacher or helper experiences it directly, witnesses it or even hears of it. Many people still believe that very young children will just “grow out of it” and stop acting aggressively when they get older. It is my experience that this is not true. As soon as a child is old enough to try to use violence and intimidation to get what they want, then they are also old enough to be disciplined for it. EVERY time a young child uses aggression to get what they want, they learn to do it again. It only takes a few times for it to become a habit. This means if they hit their parent just one time in the morning, then the same day hit their helper on the way to school, then go to school and hit another child, that is all that is needed to create a bully. Just one day of undisciplined aggression, that is all it takes.

Wilson是一個剛學懂行路的小孩，精力充沛， 好動卻喜歡亂發脾氣，尤其是當他和父母在一 起而沒有得到自己想要的東西時。Wilson在發 脾氣時經常會打他的父母或看護者，最近更開 始向他們吐口水。大多時候，他會在百貨商店 或超市等大庭廣眾地方做出這些舉動。他的父 母總是羞於制止他，因為他們知道如果試圖懲 罰他，他便會大吵大鬧。Wilson認識到，暴力 是達到目的的一種有效途徑。他極有可能成為 一個愛欺負人的孩子。

Tina Stephenson Child Behaviour Management Specialist 兒童行為管理專家
母，上學路上又打了照顧他的傭工，然後在學 校又打了其他孩子，就足以讓他成為一個愛欺 負別人的孩子。如果攻擊行為沒有收到規管， 只要一天時間，他便可能成為欺凌者。
For a child less than 4 years, all that is needed to stop aggressive behaviour is a clear message. Gently but firmly take hold of the hand they hit you with, look them in the eye, and give them a firm and sharp “NO! No hitting is allowed”, then briefly withdraw your attention, just a few seconds will do. If you are carrying them, put them down and stand with your arms crossed. But keep the message clear, do not say “no” in a playful voice, do not hit them back, you must be firm and clear. You will see a strong reaction in them, most will cry or fuss, this shows they understand it was a bad behaviour, after 4-5 seconds return to normal attention and do not mention the aggression. If the aggression was towards another child then a short time-out, 1-2 minutes, as soon as you become aware of the behaviour is all that is needed. When they do it again repeat the same discipline, usually it will only take a few firm and clear responses for them to stop the behaviour. 對於一個小於4歲的孩子而言，一個明確的訊息就可以制止這些攻擊行為。溫和而堅定地抓住他打你的手，直 視他，堅定並高聲地說：「不准打人！」，然後暫時轉移你對他的關注，只要幾秒鐘即可。但一定要清晰地 傳遞這個訊息，不要用開玩笑的口吻否定，不要反過來打他，你必須堅定、清晰。如果你正抱著他，把他放 下來，雙臂交叉站著。你會看到他強烈的反應，大多數的孩子會哭鬧，這表示他已經明白那是一個不好的行 為。4至5秒後，恢復你對他正常的關注，不要再提起他的攻擊行為。如果攻擊行為是針對其他孩子，那麼你 一旦發現，就需要立即制止，並轉移你對他的注意力長至1至2分鐘。當孩子再犯，重複同樣的懲罰。通常只 要對他作出幾次堅定明確的回應，就可以制止這些攻擊行為。

Sophie is a quiet 2.5 year old girl, she already likes to look at books and engage in crafts and other kinds of quiet play. She is the oldest child with a baby brother just a few months old and everyone thinks that she is an angelic child. But, if you watch Sophie carefully, especially when she is at playgroup, you will see that Sophie doesn’t like to share. If another child takes a book that she likes, she will often quietly pinch the child or sometimes when no one is looking quickly bite him or her. Sophie has noticed that these quiet acts of violence usually go unnoticed and always go unpunished. Most adults simply think Sophie is just too sweet a girl to do anything like that. Sophie is learning that violence is an effective way to get what she wants. She is very likely to become a bully.

Young girls can be bullies too. They tend to bully in different ways than boys, in quieter and more interpersonal ways. They may pinch or sometimes bite, but they are still being bullies, physically forcing other children and adults to comply with what they want. Do not overlook a girls bullying or think of it as just a “stage” she will grow out of. She will not grow out of it; in fact it is likely to get much worse.
Sophie是一個2歲半大的安靜小女孩，喜歡看書、做手作及 其他安靜的活動。她是家裡最年長的孩子，有一個年僅幾個 月大的小弟弟。所有人都認為她是個天使般的小女孩。但 是，如果你仔細觀察Sophie，尤其是在playgroup，你會 發現Sophie不喜歡分享。如果其他孩子拿了她喜歡的書， 她總會悄悄地掐那個孩子，或者有時趁沒人注意時迅速咬他/ 她一口。Sophie發現，那些安靜的暴力行為通常不會被發 覺和遭受懲罰。多數大人簡單地認為Sophie太招人喜愛， 不會做出那樣的舉動。Sophie認識到，暴力是她達到目的 的一種有效途徑。她極有可能成為一個愛欺負人的孩子。
年幼的小女孩也可能是欺凌者。她們相比於男孩們，更傾 向於採用不同的方式欺負他人——更安靜更「貼身」的方 式。她們會用掐，有時會用咬，但仍可能成為愛欺負人的 孩子，從身體上強迫其他孩子和成人服從她們。不要忽略 一個女孩的欺凌行為，或者認為這只是她會隨著年齡增長 而消失的一個階段。她不會因長大而停止欺凌。事實上， 她極有可能會變本加厲。

Jason is a very mature 3 years old, he is an only child and is accustomed to spending time with his older cousins and family friends. But he is always the youngest of his playmates and gets bullied by them often. They always tease him when he cries and call him a “baby”. He is challenged to do things that he is too young to do, climb as

high as the older boys, jump further and run faster. The older boys are also very rough with each other. Jason doesn’t want to seem like a baby, and so he is already learning to identify the weakest child in the group and bully them so that the older boys will respect him. He has already learned the most effective ways to make another boy back down, even how to make them cry. Jason is learning that violence is an effective way to win the acceptance of the older boys. He is very likely to become a bully.
It is a common misconception that a child is either bullied or is a bully. The truth is not that simple. Many parents already know that after their child has been bullied they often seek to bully other children, so as to not seem weak and as a way of venting their own anger and frustration at having been bullied. Bullying is like flu; it tends to spread from one child to another.
Jason是一個剛滿3歲的孩子。他是獨生子，並且習慣於與年 長的堂兄弟和家族朋友們走在一起。但是他總是玩伴中最小 的，並且常常被他們欺負。他們總是在他哭時取笑他，叫他 「BB」。他被迫挑戰一些因年幼而力所不及的事情，爬得 與年長的男孩一樣高，跳得更遠，跑得更快。年長的男孩 也會彼此暴力相待。Jason不想被看成BB，因此他已經學 會識別一班人中最弱小的孩子並欺負他們，以使年長的男 孩尊重他。他已經掌握了讓其他男孩讓步甚至讓他們哭的 最有效的方法。Jason認識到，暴力是贏得年長的男孩們接 納的一種有效途徑。他極有可能成為一個愛欺負人的孩子。
孩子不是欺負他人，就是被人欺負？這是一個普遍存在的錯 誤觀念。真相並非如此簡單。許多父母已經發現，他們的孩 子被欺負後，通常會試圖欺負其他孩子，以此顯示自己不 弱小，並作為發洩被欺負後的怒氣和挫敗感的一種方式。 欺負弱小就像流感，往往會從一個孩子向其他孩子蔓延。
It is best to make sure that toddlers do not engage in too much rough play with older children. Make sure that if your child plays with another child who tends to be rough and your child starts to display the same habit, they are disciplined EVERY time you know they have tried to use aggression to get what they want.

Children displaying acts of aggression in their early years are not too unusual. There are complications involved: instinct, past experience, poor parenting styles, social influences, and even genetics play a role. Through proper cultivation and discipline, parents can play an important role and prevent the situation from spiralling into serious and violent aggression. 幼兒階段的孩子做出攻擊行為，是一件十分常見的事情。當中原因有很多，有出於本能 反應的，有在成長中學到的，有不良教養方式引致的，亦有受社會環境影響的，或受遺 傳因素導致的。為免這些攻擊行為轉化為更嚴重的暴力傾向，家庭的培育與管教很重要。
Right Solution for the Right Situation 認清「情景」 對症下藥 Have those 3 stories told in the previous chapter triggered your memory about similar situations? This sort of behaviour, regardless of the extent of seriousness, is demonstrated by every child when they are young. Their acts usually stem from instinct in the beginning, or are learned from past experience in order to fulfil their gratification and needs. Parents should prevent their little ones from being labelled as “violent children” through appropriate discipline. Experts indicate that these acts of aggression are sparked by certain incidents and are due to lack of self-control. These acts are often situational, and they may occur again when similar scenarios arise. 前面的3個故事，會否讓你想起許多相似的情景呢？其 實這些表現在每個幼兒身上都出現過，只是程度不 同；最初多出於本能，或者在成長過程中「習得」 以此為手段滿足自己的需要。家長應透過正確的管 教，避免孩子真的成為「暴力小孩」。 專家表示，學前兒童的這類攻擊行為，通常由特定 事件引發，因缺乏自控能力引致，往往具有「情 景性」，即再次處於之前發生過攻擊性行為的情 景下，很大機會會再次發生類似的攻擊性行為。

Call him “courageous” or “violent”? 男子氣概？抑或暴力小子？ Case 1: A 6-year old boy, Kit Kit, went to Hebei with his father. They discovered a traditional local game: fish-catching with a spear. Kit Kit’s father asked him if he was brave enough to try. Kit Kit said yes. He ended up catching one fish with a spear and was praised by his father. This may give him the wrong idea, namely, that he is doing the right thing, that hurting animals is not a big deal, and he will get praised for being “courageous.” 6歲的傑傑和爸爸到中國河北旅行，這裡有一項遊樂項目是 用魚叉捉魚。爸爸問傑傑敢不敢玩，傑傑點頭說「敢」 ，竟也真的叉中了一條魚。一旁的爸爸見狀立即為傑 傑叫好。但這做法或會讓孩子以為這是正確的行為， 以為傷害小動物沒甚麼，甚至會得到「勇敢」的稱號。
Case 2: This is the first day of school for Siu Ming. His mother told him before setting foot on the school campus, “No need to worry. If someone tries to hurt you, just tell us and we will show him!” They try to nurture his masculinity by advising him to take revenge if anyone tries to take advantage of him. Regardless of whether this is about raising his courage or fearing he is too weak and others will take advantage of him, these are not appropriate words parents should use with their kids. This sort of “guidance” misleads kids into thinking that attacking people using violence is the way to solve problems.. 這是小明入幼稚園的第一天，媽媽送他至校門口，臨走前對小 明說：「若有人欺負你不用怕，告訴媽媽爸爸，我們會收拾 他！」為了培養他的男子氣概，亦會說：「如果有人欺負你， 你就打回他！」家長怕孩子蝕底也好，想孩子更男子漢也好， 都不應該說出這樣的話。這會讓孩子認為打人、暴力是解決問 題的方法。

Baby Goes Brutal? 1歲寶寶也「動武」？ The scenarios mentioned earlier involve children in their early years. But even one-year old can throw tantrums – biting, and beating others without reason. Experts indicate that it is part of the developmental process for babies and toddlers, and stems from instinct. Let’s explore their brutal factors together! • They lack the verbal ability to express themselves effectively, so they become brutal in order to carry out their negative emotions. • They are defending themselves out of instinct, as they do not allow anyone to interfere with their interests. • They are going through an oral developmental period, where they may have a tendency to put things in their mouth for chewing, including arms and hands of others. • They are creating their own personal space. When they are forced to squeeze themselves into a congested area, they may express a reflex to push anything in front of them to make more room for themselves. • They are going through a momentary bad mood. When hunger, fatigue, or obstacles assail them, they may carry out their negative emotions by beating someone. • They are testing a cause-and-effect relationship. They learn that there are consequences following their actions, so they are testing different effects based on their behaviour. 前面幾宗「幼兒暴力事件」，主角大多是幼兒階段的孩子。1歲左右的小寶 寶亦常出現無緣無故發脾氣、咬人、打人的情況。許多專家都表示，這其 實是嬰兒發展的必經階段，很多時亦是本能性的反應。一起了解他們「動 武」的原因吧！
• 他們語言表達能力貧乏，無法表達自己的感受，唯有訴諸「武力」，發 洩不滿情緒。
• 他們會出於本能地自衛，因為他們不容自己的利益受侵犯。 • 他們有口腔發育的需要，喜歡把東西放到嘴裡咬，包括其他小朋友的手 臂或手。
• 他們需要有自己的空間，一旦被擠到狹小的空間，有可能條件反射地推開 或打擋在他前面的孩子，以確保自己有足夠的活動空間。 on Celine Yeung, 3 yrs Gray Blouse HK$369 White Dot Knitted Cardigan HK$499 Black Canvas Pants HK$279 All from Elle Petite
• 他們有心情不好的時候，餓、累、乃至學習遇到失敗時，情緒都會變差， 從而可能出現打人行為。
• 他們在測試因果的關係，因為他們發現打了其他小朋友，就一定有事會發 生，於是不斷嘗試用自己的行為影響周圍的事物。
Bullying and Violence 欺凌與暴力 We often hear about the subject of school bullying in the media and in movies. It seems that bullying and violence go hand-inhand. But experts emphasise that “Violence is not equivalent to bullying. Bullying is a planned act in gaining benefits through the use of offensive behaviour.” Violence refers more to kids who demonstrate offensive and destructive behaviour. That is why kids tend to encounter bullying in school or group situations. Factors involved in bullying are more complicated and need further attention and care from parents and schools. 在許多影視作品及新聞中，我們都不時會見到「校園欺凌」這個主題。欺凌與暴力，兩者常被放在一齊講。但有學者強調，「暴力不等於 欺凌，欺凌是有計畫地使用攻擊行為來得到利益。」暴力更多指孩子有具攻擊性、破壞性的行為。因此「欺凌」較多在孩子踏入學校、開 始集體生活後會遇到，當中涉及的問題亦更複雜，需要家長、學校更小心地面對和處理。 www.peegaboo.com | PJ

Enter Nursery Early = More Violent? 過早入托 更暴力？ According to Raising Babies: Should Under 3s Go to Nursery? author and renowned parenting psychologist Steve Biddulph, suggests that sending children under age 3 to nurseries is harmful to their development. Increasing evidence shows that children raised by people other than their parents have a higher tendency to express offensive and even anti-social behaviours. These behaviours will affect their ability to develop close relationships with others later on. His findings focus mainly on parents who send their 6-month-old babies to full day nurseries. He believes that parents are the best and safest caregivers for their children.
Pros and Cons
Opinion is divided on his claims. Supporters found further evidence showing children taken care of by their mothers performed better in developmental tests than the ones from daycare or relatives. Those opposed believe his claims need further research support. Furthermore, it is believed that for a 3- or 4-year-old child, a good childcare service can effectively raise their cognitive and language development.
世界知名育兒專家Steve Biddulph於06年出版了他的最新著作《Raising Babies: Should Under 3s Go to Nursery?》，書中他認為讓3歲以下的幼兒入托兒所可能不利於他們的 成長。皆因越來越多的證據顯示，由家庭以外人士看顧的幼兒常常更具攻擊性，並表 現出反社會等行為問題；他們以後可能會在與人發展緊密關係時出現問題。他的「警 告」主要針對那些嬰兒6個月大就將其送入全日制托兒所的父母。 Steve表示，由家 庭成員或親友看顧幼兒是「更安全的選擇」。
有人讚有人彈 Steve的言論獲得支持、反對兩種聲音。支持者發現：由母親親身照顧的幼兒在發育測 試中的表現好過由托兒所或親戚看顧的幼兒。但亦有專家認為這方面研究的證據還遠 非確鑿。而對於3、4歲的兒童來說，不少人相信優秀的托兒所能有效訓練他們的認知 能力和語言能力。

Research from the journal, Aggression and Violent Behaviour, indicates that attention to health risk factors at the prenatal stage could stop children’s tendencies to become violent in the future. Health risks factors include lead exposure, tobacco use during pregnancy, depression and stress, etc. 今年9月《Aggression and Violent Behaviour 攻擊性與暴力行為》期刊上有研究 指出，產前就開始注意胎兒的健康條件，或能杜絕孩子未來的暴力傾向。當中 風險因素包括是否遭受鉛污染、母親懷孕期間是否抽煙、母親的憂鬱和壓力程 度等等。
More Rest = Less Violent? 睡得飽 較少暴力？ A study conducted by the University of Michigan Medical School found that sleep deprivation in children has a harmful effect on the part of the brain that controls emotions, decision-making, and social behaviour. 來自美國密西根大學的研究者指出，若孩子總是處 於睡眠被剝奪的狀態，大腦中主張情緒控制、做決策 與社會行為等功能的部份會受到傷害。
More Spanking = More Violently Aggressive? 體罰加劇暴力傾向？ Time Magazine covered a study conducted by Tulane University with 2,500 children. The study found that those who were spanked at age 3 were much more likely to become violently aggressive at age 5. The results were published in the journal of Pediatrics.. 《時代》雜誌報導，杜蘭大學（Tulane University）學者研究 將近2,500名幼童後發現，3歲時愈常被「打屁股」的孩子，到 五歲時愈可能出現攻擊他人的傾向。該項研究發表在《兒科 醫學》期刊。

England’s riots this summer caused widespread disturbance in many cities; reportedly the youngest rioter was aged 7. The General Secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders condemned the dysfunction of families, cultural and social values such as consumerism, etc. Furthermore, the British government reiterated its earlier promise of offering free parenting programmes to 50,000 parents with children under the age of 5. Its purpose is to educate parents on how to handle issues related to child discipline, communication and conflict problems. We can see the impact of family discipline on children’s early years. If we plant the seeds of violence and let these sprout without guidance or care, they will grow to be toxic plants. Parents should seize the chance to correct children’s aggressive acts while still young. In this way they are in a position to stem future violence.

Create a caring environment 創造良好環境 In order for children to develop in a positive environment, creating a harmonious atmosphere in the family is imperative. Parents should try to avoid direct confrontation with their children, and try to maintain respect and care toward all family members. Also, parents should be circumspect when selecting audiovisual and reading materials, mindful to choose those which will have a positive influence on their children’s development. Furthermore, parents should not shrink from having their children make new friends for fear of aggression on the part of others. Parents can guide them to develop wholesome friendships; the more acquaintances they have, the more chance they have of developing their social skills. A caring environment can stimulate children to develop and nurture positive behaviour. 要孩子在良好的環境下成長，和睦的家庭氛圍當然 是首當其衝的。家長應極力避免當著孩子面發生爭 吵，對待各家庭成員要有應份的尊重和關愛。其次， 家長對影視和讀物的篩選和把關，亦有助這些東西對 孩子產生積極的作用。另外，別害怕孩子打人就不讓他 和其他小朋友一起玩，其實在父母引導下多和同齡人接 觸，才能讓他們學習社會交往。良好的環境能給孩子好 的刺激，有助培養孩子好的行為習慣。

Reduce negative stimuli 減少刺激因素 Any toys that will induce aggressive behaviour (e.g. toy guns and knives), TV games, shows and movies containing violent scenes, will influence children to display aggressive acts. Although it is challenging to completely avoid these in this day and age, we can focus on positive messages such as not killing people, and not harming animals. Parents should expose children to these messages in order to counterbalance the effects of negative stimuli. 具有攻擊傾向的玩具（如玩具槍、玩具刀等）、有暴力 情節的影視劇、遊戲，都可能讓孩子學會一些攻擊性行為。雖 然這些東西在時下很難避免，但我們亦會在日常生活中接觸到 那些正確的資訊，例如不能殺人、不能傷害小動物。家長可加 強這些訊息，減低這些刺激因素影響孩子的機會。

Feature Balance strictness and harshness 嚴格 不嚴苛 Child aggression is not simply infantile or naïve behaviour. Parents must be firm about stemming aggressive acts and telling them these are not acceptable. At the same time they should not go overboard in disciplining them because they may listen to you for the moment, but take their anger out on others later on.. 不要一次又一次地以為小朋友的暴力行為只是孩子氣、不懂事。遇到孩子的暴 力行為，一定要堅決制止，嚴格規定這些事情是不准做的。但家長亦不應對一 個3、4歲的孩子過分地嚴厲苛刻，因為他們這一刻被動服從，下一秒可能便將 不滿情緒發洩在其他小朋友身上。
Love but do not Spoil 關愛 不溺愛 Do not use physical force on violent children. Try to give them the love and care they need and understand their motivation. When they know they are being loved and cared for, they will develop a sense of security, and gradually change their behaviour to show care to others. Never spoil them and let them take the lead. Parents who do this lose the upper hand in educating their children. 對於愛打人的孩子，千萬不要以暴制暴。給他們充分的關愛，多和他們交流心中 所想，當孩子感到被愛，安全感自然會增加，亦會漸漸改變自己的行為，表現出 親社會的一面。但切忌溺愛，切忌凡事由得孩子，那會讓你失去教育的主動權。
Proper treatment for aggressive acts 正確對待攻擊行為 We have listed several scenarios and examples concerning types of violent acts and aggression. But it becomes more complicated when parents face these situations. For instance, children tend to lie after attacking a person in order to cover their mistakes. Parents can follow the following guidelines in handling these situations: First, parents should be privy to the whole story as to who was right or wrong. When they guide their children, parents are then in a position to establish a correct concept of right and wrong. Secondly, try to categorise the motives behind the aggressive acts and use different methods to arrest the misguided behaviour. 幼兒的攻擊行為與暴力傾向，前面舉了很多例子，講了幾種類 型，但家長在真正面對時，情況可能更複雜。譬如有孩子打了 人，還會說謊來掩蓋錯誤。家長可以遵從以下準則去處理：首 先以冷靜的態度分清事件中孰是誰非，從而幫助孩子建立正確 的是非觀念；其次是區分攻擊的動機，以不同的方法去阻止和 抑制孩子的攻擊行為。

Latch and positioning 含乳及餵哺姿勢 An incorrect latch is the most common cause of breastfeeding problems. You can seek help you at each feed to achieve correct latch and position until you are confident. 含乳姿勢不正確是衍生母乳餵哺種種問題的一 大主因。你可尋求協助，以確保嬰兒含乳和你 的餵哺姿勢正確，直至你有信心自行餵哺為止。
Milk supply 母乳供應 Your milk will “come-in” between the 3rd day to 5th day and your breasts will feel full and heavy. Remember, the more your baby feeds, the more milk will be produced. It is a “supply and demand” system. 上奶現象會在第3至5天出現，屆時你會感到乳房豐滿和沉重。請緊記母乳分泌量 關乎供應與需求，即餵哺次數頻密，你便會分泌越多的母乳。

Baby Zone Touching Language 語言科「摸」住學 We all begin to develop language and vocabulary at birth. Although she won’t be able to talk for some time your infant is listening closely to the speech of the people around her. Carefully associating actions and routines with sounds and words. It is also the case that infants love to grasp objects and put things into their mouths. This combination of listening and touch provides parents with a terrific opportunity to teach their child vocabulary in their first year, when they learn it best. When your child is holding a child safe toy or are putting one in their mouth, describe the toy for them. Lean in close to your child’s face and in a fun animated voice talk to them about the toy; describe its shape, its colour, its texture and its size. This creates an automatic association for your child between the toy and the vocabulary, with the added joy of getting your undivided attention. It takes just a few moments but the simple description combined with touch and your attention is a powerful learning moment for your infant. 語言和詞彙的發展從我們一出世就開始了。 雖然小寶寶還不會說話，但她會留意周圍的 人的說話，將聲音、詞語和一些日常行為聯 繫起來，他們喜歡抓起東西擺入口中也與此 有關。這種「連結」讓父母可以在第一年便 教導孩子詞彙，這個時期的學習效果最好。 試試在她抓著一個玩具，或正把（安全的） 玩具放入嘴裡時，向她「描述」這個玩具：彎 下腰，靠近孩子的臉，並用得意、開心的聲 音跟他們說說這個玩具的形狀、顏色、質地 和尺寸，玩具和詞彙之間將因此建立起一種 聯繫，你的關注亦會讓她很開心。只需花一 點點時間打通這種「連結」，就能為小寶寶 帶來有效的學習。

Resilience is the ability to bounce back from adversity. Children become resilient not by avoiding challenges, but by receiving support to overcome them. To achieve this, they need a healthy self-esteem, self-efficacy (or the sense that they can make things happen), and to be able to control their emotions.
W
hen we want children to develop a healthy self-esteem, we must avoid praise and replace it with acknowledgment. This is because we develop low selfesteem either because we have skills and qualities that we value but are not aware of them, or because (in a perfectionist pattern), we expect so much of ourselves that no one on the planet could achieve it all. Parents can prevent or repair low self-esteem from either source by giving children information about their achievements, without labelling these as “good” or judging the child to be “good” for achieving them. This is because (in child-speak) if we are good when we get things right, we would be bad if we got them wrong. Acknowledgment involves congratulating, celebrating and sharing children’s joy in their accomplishments. We can ask: “Are you pleased with that?... You look proud”. We can add an opinion: “I agree with you. I think you deserve to be”. And we can tell them about our own values (instead of about themselves): “I appreciate that you did that...I admire that you told the truth...I’m impressed at the work you put into that”. In this way, children learn about who they are, not who they have to be to earn our respect. The second skill children need is to
know that they can make decisions for themselves and control their own lives. This means giving them choices over everyday issues: what they want for breakfast, whether to wear the red or the blue T-shirt, how they want their hair...and so on.
years of age, this is the only way to help them when they are upset. While having a cuddle, they can calm themselves. The second method is also one we know well, because we use it for ourselves. When we are distressed, we
Children learn self-control the same way we do. The first method is to get support from someone they love. Third, children need to learn emotional self-control. As babies, their survival demanded that they communicated everything they felt, so that their parents knew what they needed. So it is normal for them not to know how to control their feelings. But adults’ wellbeing requires that we choose when and how to communicate our feelings. This is an important skill to learn, not just because adults don’t want to have to endure children’s meltdowns, but – far more importantly – because, during the dark times of disappointment and grief, young people need to know how to manage their despair. This inoculates them against suicide.
do something soothing, such as have a relaxing bath, do some exercise or take a rest, watch TV or listen to music. In the same way, then, when older children are having a meltdown and are not yet ready for a hug, we can invite them to go somewhere pleasant and do something they enjoy, until they feel better. They might play on their computer, listen to music or tinker with their toys. While this seems as if it might be a reward for “bad” behaviour, children don’t have meltdowns to be disruptive: they have meltdowns because they cannot help it. With our guidance and with practice, they will learn how.
Children learn self-control the same way we do. The first method is to get support from someone they love, with a hug or a kind word. If they are under 3

W
e know that reading aloud to children is a critical step towards helping them learn to read. They learn important pre-reading skills: letter names and sounds, rhyming words, vocabulary, how stories work with a beginning, middle and end and that the words on the page carry the message and tell the story. Children also develop essential concepts about print as they understand how to turn the pages, how to read from left to right (in English, or in some Chinese books, right to left and up to down) and the difference between a letter, a word or character structure and a sentence. Most important of all, reading aloud builds a love of reading which children will need when they begin to read on their own. The Millennium Cohort Study (2010) tracked nearly 15,000 children born in 2000 and 2001 from birth to 5, and found that children who are read to every day at 3 were more likely to flourish in their first year in primary school – not just in language and literacy but also in maths.

s教你親子 閱讀基本 功
Connection with the book When children are read to, they learn about the joy and fun of books. They make connections between the things in the story and their own lives and find objects that are familiar “He has blue bear just like me!” Gradually they realise that the words in the book are telling a story that they can talk about and remember. “The dog was happy to see his friend.” Reading together gives parents a chance to personalise the book for their child and read at his pace. They can pause and discuss interesting pictures and funny words. Parents can re-read familiar books over and over so their child can “learn the book” and be a reader too. There is such an amazing variety of wonderful books for parents and children to enjoy together and the age level and interest of the child is very important when selecting the right story. Books with vibrant illustrations or pop-up books are fun to read since most children are interested in colours and familiar objects. Since young children are eagerly acquiring language, books that tell funny or clever stories with uncommon words such as The Maestro Plays by Bill Martin Jr. or even The Incy Wincy Spider. Gaining popularity are personalised stories where parents can help make their own books with their children which is wonderful activity for a parent to engage and bond with their child. We know that being able to rhyme is an essential prereading skill and there are many great rhyming books available.
Good Personality 好品格 Concentration 專注力 Creativity 創造力
在閱讀中「生活」 當父母為孩子朗讀時，孩子除了體會到從書本而來的樂趣，他們更 可以將故事內容和自己生活經驗連接，例如孩子會發現自己也擁有 書中出現的物品——「他有和我一樣的藍色熊！」；當孩子逐漸地 對故事熟悉，他們更能夠很快說出故事的發展和情節——「小狗很 高興將會見到他的朋友！」親子共讀的過程，父母可以因應孩子的 需要而調整閱讀的步伐，又可以隨時停下來與孩子討論書中有趣的 圖畫和生字。父母可以重複朗讀孩子喜愛的書籍，以培養他們的閱 讀能力及令他們將來成為喜愛閱讀的人。 當選擇兒童圖書時，父母可以先因應孩子的年齡及個人興趣作考慮。 其次是圖書的設計和內容，例如孩子熟悉的物件、色彩豐富的圖畫、 活頁或彈起的插圖等。由於幼兒正處於渴望學習語言的階段，一些 以有趣生字構成的圖書如Bill Martin Jr 的著作《The Maestro Plays》 或《The Incy Wincy Spider》，都十分適合為幼兒朗讀的。父母更 可以幫助孩子創作屬於他們自己的圖書，製作的過程更可以建立親 子關係。此外，坊間亦有很多押韻的圖書，對培養孩子的閱讀興趣 非常有幫助。

Learning
Challenges to overcome We know that sometimes parents are tired and busy and it is important for them to understand how essential the daily read aloud time can be for their children’s development. Parents can overcome challenges to reading aloud daily by establishing a familiar routine, having books available throughout the house, making the reading time special with a blanket or food treat and reading when the child is interested. Finding the right book and reading it with enthusiasm and expression helps a restless child to engage in the story. It is fine to read when children are colouring or playing. They can listen to the story and will often come back to see a special picture.
Imagination 想像力 Language Skills 語言能力
A successful story time depends on several things. Probably most important is that the parent who is doing the reading have a positive and accepting attitude. If the parent has read the book before and can deliver the story with enthusiasm and expression, it is more fun and interesting for the child to listen. Sitting in a comfortable place, snuggling up, looking at the child while reading, letting your child set the pace (you don’t have to finish the book or read word for word) and having a conversation about the story will all make your story time rewarding. Your goal is to have fun reading together!!!
一起克服挑戰 雖然家長每天的工作都十分繁忙和疲累，但為孩子建立朗讀習慣 是不可忽視的成長需要。你只需要找一本合適的兒童圖書，利用 豐富的感情表達故事情節，令孩子跟你一起投入故事世界。即使 孩子在你朗讀時玩耍或填色，他們仍然在聆聽你說故事，他們偶 然會走回來看看書中的圖片。另外，家長可以將圖書擺放在家中 不同的角落，讓孩子可以隨時隨地進行朗讀。你更加可以把朗讀 變成一個特別時刻，如準備食物一邊朗讀一邊分享、或用毛氈與 孩子依偎一起看書。 建立良好的說故事時間取決於父母朗讀時抱持正面和接納的態度。 如果父母為孩子朗讀前已細讀圖書，並且能夠感情投入地演繹故 事，這樣可以令孩子更加投入和享受說故事時間。而朗讀時可讓孩 子決定朗讀的速度，不必逐字逐句地把故事說出，父母只需要把注 意力集中到孩子身上，完成後與孩子一起討論故事內容。另外，一 個舒適的環境讓父母與孩子依偎一起看書，更可以增進親子關係和 建立優質的說故事時間。

eLINKS A True Learning Experience
給孩子真正的學習
Text I Angie
There are a variety of learning centres offering interactive English courses for the purpose of raising children’s interest in learning. Mentor Links Education Centre has taken a step further in developing an English programme that provides a holistic approach catering to children’s learning methods, interests, emotional and mental well-being. Mentor Links Education Centre provides eLINKS, a comprehensive English programme developed by Mrs. Josephina Anna Lee, Director of the International Center for the Gifted & Talented (HK) Ltd. She believes that every child has a unique style when it comes to learning, where the typical top-down teaching approach is unfair to students with diverse learning and emotional needs. Flexi-Learning approach was developed incorporating an ongoing children evaluation system and a specially-designed profiling system, from which teachers can evaluate the student’s learning styles, mood and energy levels, and academic strengths and weaknesses. From here, the trained teachers will adapt the lessons in providing a flexible class that is mentally-stimulating, fun and addresses each student’s academic and emotional needs.
Nurturing the Love to Learn
eLINKS is an 8-level English proficiency programme developed under the Flexi-Learning approach to students from K3 to early secondary levels. The syllabus is based on the Cambridge Kids Box and Primary Colours series that covers reading, listening, speaking, and writing. Students will get to “take a step outside the classroom” with group discussions, presentations about a variety of topics and perform certain tasks. This learning process not only benefits them in gaining knowledge they may not encounter in schools, but also strengthens their English proficiency in all 4 areas, and builds their interest and appreciation of the English language. Under the Flexi-Learning approach, students are able to develop a sense of ownership and confidence in their learning pace and needs. Mentor Links Education Centre has also introduced Flexi-Learning into other programmes, such as HABA Playgroup Fun. Kindermusik is another English proficiency programme using this approach to stimulate students’ English learning through music that is coming out soon.
為了提高孩子的學習興趣，很多教育中心都設計了具互動性的英語課 程。文韜教育中心（Mentor Links Education Centre）在這方面走得 更前：除了增強學生的英文能力，其課程更全方位地配合孩子的學習 方法、興趣、情感和情緒上的健康發展。當中包括由國際資優人士 國 際資優人仕中心(香港)有限公司創辦人Josephina Anna Lee女士引進的 全方位英語課程eLINKS。 Josephina認為每個孩子對待學習都有其獨特的模式，由上而下的傳 統教育方法，已不適用於那些在學習和情感上有多樣需求的學生。而 Flexi-Learning特別設計的評估分析系統，讓老師能評斷學生的學習模 式、情緒、強弱項等，從而靈活設計出有趣、具啟發性，又符合學生 學業及情感雙方面要求的課程。
培養對學習的熱愛 eLINKS是在Flexi-Learning教學模式下引入的一個英語能力課程，包 含8個等級，能滿足K3至初中學生的需要。它以《劍橋幼兒英語》和 《Primary Colours》教材為基礎，涵括英語閱讀、聽力、口語和寫作 等幾方面。學生們將「跳出課室」，帶著任務進行小組討論，提出問 題。這樣的學習過程不僅能讓孩子獲得在學校無法涉獵的知識，還能 通過各方面來提高英語能力，培養他們對英語的興趣。Flexi-Learning 的模式令孩子們更有歸屬感，在學習的步伐和需求上亦更有信心。文

MENSA IQ Training: Think Better, Faster, Cleverer
日朗坊MENSA IQ課程
讓思維升級
Mensa is the world’s largest and oldest international high IQ organisation whose members’ Intelligence Quotient (IQ) are proven in the top 2% of the human population. The purpose of Mensa (roundtable in Latin) is to create a “round-table of mind” for members to foster exchanges in generating intellectual and social opportunities. Raymond Ng, Deputy Principle of Glory Learning House and also an American Mensa member, believes the Mensa approach on intelligence and gifted children education is useful to all children. Some parents might ask about the benefit of this course. Mr. Ng believes, instead of ultimately reaching the Mensa qualification, the programme will nurture children to think like gifted children or Mensa members. “Mensa encourages ideas from all angles and perspectives to motivate self-propelled learning, because they can solve many analytical problems typical children can’t do. The goal is to enhance their process thinking skill at least 2 years above their age.”
Interactive activities foster intrinsic learning Raymond believes children’s minds should be cultivated while they are still young. The main focus of the Mensa IQ fundamental class is to provide children (age 2-3) a starting point to foster “stronger than typical cognitive training”. The intermediate class (age 3-6) strengthens their logical and brain power such as memory, process speed, mathematical, language and logical reasoning. Children in the advanced class (age 6 and up) engage in English-only intensive problem solving lessons susing Mensa recommended materials for gifted children and intelligence training. Children who master at the intermediate/advance level can become significantly better problem solvers and academic achievers then others. The activities in these classes are performed in a fun and interactive way to strengthen their concentration, memory, observational, logical, mathematic, and language skills. Certification is awarded after course completion and referral to standardised IQ exams can be provided, if necessary.
Mensa 是一個國際認可的高智商社群，其成員均通過國際性認可的 智商評估考試而達到人類智商的首2%。Mensa 是拉丁文，意思是 「圓桌」，其目的是建立一個為成員促進交流的平台，從而增進學術 和社交的機會。身為日朗坊創辦人及美國 Mensa (門薩) 會員伍偉文 先生認為，Mensa 的方法和標準對小朋友來講是十分實用的，無論 他是資優與否。 不少家長都對 Mensa 課程的益處十分好奇。伍先生表示，日朗坊的 Mensa IQ 課程希望能透過國際 Mensa 的模式去訓練小朋友像一個 Mensa 會員或資優兒童般思考，而不是要小朋友抱著考取 Mensa 會 員資格的目的學習。「Mensa 很鼓勵以多角度思考 和見解去激勵自發性的學習，因為這樣他們會學懂去 有效地解決和分析問題，一般小朋友不會懂這樣做。 我們的目標是提升小朋友的思維能力，達至比實際年 齡至少高兩年的水平。」
互動教學 培養自發性學習 伍先生認為，兒童的思維應自小培養。日朗坊 Mensa IQ 基本班的主要焦點是向兒童提供一 個起點，以培養「強化的認知訓練」。 中班的課程會進一步加強他們的大腦和 邏輯訓練，如記憶力，思維處理速度、 數學和語言的邏輯推理能力。小朋友在 高班的課程則會參與緊湊式的全英語 Mensa 解難訓練，重點會放在極力提 升數學、語言能力和其他各方面的理解 及思維技巧。小朋友經過中高班訓練後 會比同齡的有更強的解難及學習能力。 所有課程的活動都將以一個有趣和互動的方式進行，以助加強 他們的注意力、記憶力、觀察力及邏輯、數學和語言能力。完 成課程後日朗坊會頒發證書，如需要考相關的國際認可智商評 估考試，更可提供轉介服務。

D
uring the preschool years, children should begin to take part in conversation and storytelling, talking about his feelings, as well as mimic adult writing. While individual differences vary, there are some milestones to observe and note. Ask Yourself: • Did your child learn to speak much later than his peers? The first clue to a language and reading problem may be delayed speech. • Does your child recognise the letters in his/her own name? A preschooler should be aware of print around her — understanding that those scribbles on road signs and books are letters that make up words, just like the letters in his name. • Does your child know his/her ABCs? By age 4, he/she should be able to name the letters of the alphabet and recognise their shapes. • Does your child understand how a book works? Children need to understand that people read words,

What to Do Now: • Read aloud every day to help your child connect letters to speech sounds. • Invite him to join in when words in a storybook are repeated in a chorus. • Sing nursery rhymes and the alphabet song. • Talk to your child as you go about your day pointing out letters on traffic signs, labels, etc. • Play word games while traveling in the car or waiting in line.

Expert Says Music
Why Rhythm is Important in Piano Learning? 為何學鋼琴節奏很重要？
W
hat is rhythm and why is it so important while learning how to play the piano?
First of all, if you take a closer look at our daily lives, rhythm is everywhere. Waking up from the sound of the alarm clock in the morning, brushing our teeth, cutting fruits on a cooking board, etc….Everyday, we are surrounded by things with rhythmic patterns without our notice. Isn’t that interesting? The moment you step out of the door with your high heels, you would realise your walking sound is rhythmic as well. What a surprise! In the office, the rhythm of typing we hear could also
甚
be a fun pattern. That is when you realise rhythm is everywhere without boundaries. In the world of music, rhythm is considered the “bones”. It gives structure and shape to the composition. If we lose the rhythm in music, it will be like changing the shape of the piece, making it almost impossible to recognise the work even with all the right pitches. Therefore, if we want to make music, maintaining a strong sense of rhythm is a priority. To achieve that, daily practice with the metronome is like taking in calcium. Over time, it will strengthen our “bones”. Second of all, rhythm sets the mood of
the music. For example, dottedrhythm melody creates a fun and exciting feeling. Whole notes give weight and calmness. Consecutive sixteenth-notes offer energy and intensity. In order to express and differentiate kind of feelings through the keyboard, we should be very precise with each type of rhythm. To conclude, we should always be conscious about rhythm while playing the piano instead of just focusing on playing all the right notes throughout.

Growing in Love... 愛與關懷是孩子 成長的養分
N
owadays it is not an uncommon sight to see children screaming in toy shops and crying for new toys. It is not only embarrassing for parents to witness the emotionally charged episode, it is also frustrating and stressful for both parents and kids. While it is important for parents to teach their little ones how to regulate their emotions, parents can also make use of the opportunity to teach their children the difference between “wants” and “needs”. While “needs” represent the basic necessities required for survival such as food, water, shelter and clothing, “wants” are the favourable
objects that one would like to have. It is certainly normal for parents to wish to pamper their children with new toys and delicious food. Yet, most parents also hope their kids can learn to feel grateful for and appreciate what they have. Parents can involve their children with different charity and volunteer work where they learn to donate their time and money to those in need. If children are given the opportunity to see the lives of the less fortunate, they are more likely to become less self-centered and learn to appreciate what they have. Volunteer work helps to broaden children’s perspective of the world and teach them about love and care for others. Charitable activities are not only meaningful and educational, they can also help to cultivate a caring and considerate personality in children.
孩
子在玩具店內大吵大嚷要買玩 具的情況似乎日漸普遍。這情 境不單令家長感到尷尬，對親
子雙方亦造成困擾。 教導孩子如何管理情緒固然重要，家長亦可 把握機會教導孩子「需要」和「想要」的事 物的分別。「需要」是指日常基本所需； 「想要」是指喜愛的東西但非必需品。父母 供給子女物質是正常的事。然而，許多父母 亦希望子女能學習感恩及珍惜所有。 父母可跟孩子一同參與義工服務，讓孩子 捐出時間和金錢，幫助有需要人士。若孩 子有機會接觸社會上較不幸的人，他們會 學到珍惜與無私。義工服務能擴闊孩子的 視野並讓他們學習怎樣愛惜和關心他人。 慈善工作不但具有教育意義，更能培養孩 子關愛的品格。

Things to Know before You
Health
Choose the Spectacles for Your Kids
幫孩子 揀對眼鏡 • Choose lenses and then the frames 先選鏡片 後揀鏡框 In choosing a pair of spectacles, most people will pick frames first. As a result, they may end up with lenses that don’t fit right. The proper procedure recommended is to pick lenses first. First of all, after an eye test, your eyecare professional determines what kind of lens design to correct your vision problem, be it short-sightedness, long-sightedness or others. Later, one decides on the materials of the lenses. Children would want a pair of safe and lightweight glasses, so plastic lenses are ideal as they are more durable and safer.
選配眼鏡時，大多數人會先選鏡框，後揀 鏡片，其實先選鏡片才是正確步驟：首先 驗明度數，決定需要近視、遠視抑或其他 類型的鏡片，然後再決定鏡片的材質。小 朋友的眼鏡講求安全、輕薄，所以應揀選 不易摔破的纖維鏡片，而輕薄的眼鏡能令 配戴更舒適自然。
• Choose frames to match your face 鏡框應配合面型
Rectangular frames work well for round faces. 圓臉：適合長方型鏡框。
Round frames work well for square faces. 方臉：適合圓型鏡框。
For oval face shapes, any kind of frames would be suitable, with those angular frames bringing out a better effect.
For angular faces, it will be good to choose simplistic designs to soften the facial features.
For heart-shaped faces, it is better to choose frames with a wider bottom, to complement and enhance the face.
鵝蛋臉：幾乎任何款式的鏡 框都適合，棱角分明的框架 可達至更佳的視覺效果。
方形臉：選擇設計線 條可以讓面部輪廓顯 得圓潤柔和的鏡框。
心形臉：選擇底部更寬或 鏡腳位置靠近底部的鏡 框，此類鏡框有助於襯托 和美化面型。
• Choose lenses with protective benefits 應選防護鏡片 As children’s eyes are still growing, they are more susceptible to the effects of UV rays as compared with that of adults. Transitions lenses are the ideal choice to protect the health of their eyes. 兒童的眼睛正處於發育階段，比成年人的更為脆弱，更容易受紫外線幅射影響，因此應選具備防紫外線、減少強光 等防護功能的鏡片。

Children do not have the resources to handle stress, and if they have not learned how to manage stress from those around them, they do not have the tools to help themselves. Furthermore, children are more emotional, intuitive and empathetic than adults. Stress is cumulative, and long-term chronic stress can affect the brain. Children become more vulnerable to pressure, rendering them less able to cope with day-to-day tasks. Long -term stress suppresses the immune system and can lead to illness and disease. Thankfully, there is an easy way to help children feel better fast with quick shifts of emotions every time. This method for releasing negative emotions is a combination of talking about the problem, and tapping or massaging meridian points. Meridian points are those used in acupuncture. It’ has been proven by the traditional medical community and scientific journals that meridian channels and points exist and they carry an unseen energy that travels through the body. When manipulated, it can offer healing benefits and in some cases can be used to feel numb pain during surgery. The technique is called Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) first discovered by Dr. Roger Callahan, a Psychologist who was helping a client with her intense fear of water. He was studying acupuncture at the same time and when he was treating her with acupuncture while talking about her water phobia, her problem completely vanished. Later an engineer, who studied with Dr. Callahan simplified the process by creating a series of places on the head, face and body to tap (he found that tapping was just as effective as needles) while focusing on the problem and the person felt better almost every time. The discovery statement in EFT is that all negative emotions are a blockage in our meridian or energy system in the body. Gary Craig, the founder of EFT was able to find the key points and by tapping on all these points while repeating the problem, the negative emotion would vanish and often a sense of hope, understanding or optimism would take its place.

小朋友是沒有處理壓力的能 力的，如果他們不學習如何 管理周圍的人所帶來的壓力， 他們就沒法讓自己好過些。另 外，孩子比成年人更情緒化、 更容易用直覺及感情行事。 壓力是具累積性的，而長期、慢 性的緊張壓力將影響大腦。當孩 子的壓力過大時，他們應付每天 日常問題的能力也會隨之下降。 長期的壓力會抑制免疫系統，並可 能導致疾病。 好在有一個簡單的方法，可以在每 次情緒變化時，幫助孩子們更快地 恢復。通常孩子遇到問題時，我們會 和他「傾一傾」，而這種緩解負面情 緒的方法再將「輕叩、按摩經穴」融 合進來。經穴是在針灸中使用的穴位。 傳統醫學界和科學期刊都證明了經絡和 穴位的存在，他們可以將一種看不見的 能量傳遞全身，並具有治療功能。在某 些手術情況下，它還能使患者沒有痛感。 這種技術被稱為「情緒釋放術」 （Emotional Freedom Technique, EFT）， 由心理學家Roger Callahan博士於治療其病 人對水的恐懼時所發現的。他當時正在研讀 針灸，他發現一邊對病人進行針灸，一邊 與她談論對水的恐懼，病人的問題完全消失 了。隨後，與Callahan博士一同研究的一名工 程師，定出一系列可進行輕叩的頭、臉及身體 上的部位（他發現輕叩與針灸同樣有效），再 與「傾一傾」相結合。整個過程簡單了，而幾 乎每次病人都覺得變好了。情緒釋放術認為所 有負面情緒都源於體內經絡或能源系統的堵塞 或阻滯。其創始人Gary Craig找到了關鍵穴位， 通過輕叩這些穴位，同時口中重複問題，負面情 緒就會慢慢消退，而一種充滿希望、理解或樂觀 的情緒會取而代之。
Health First identify the emotion. Second, find a phrase that the child would like to feel instead. This can vary depending on the age. 首先，找出影響孩子的負面情緒。然後，選取他可以接受的一個短句。根 據年齡不同，這個短語的內容也會不同。
Using the EFT short cut points, the parent can tap on the following: 使用情緒釋放術簡易穴位，家長可以這樣進行輕叩：
For example: Sally is 6 yrs old and is frightened because she had a nightmare about ghosts. She cannot go back to sleep and is crying. 例如： 6歲的Sally因為有鬼的噩夢受到驚 嚇。她再也睡不著，並一直哭泣。
Use 3 or 4 fingers and tap between the eyebrows repeating, “afraid of ghosts.” Use 2 fingers and tap under both eyes repeating “afraid of ghosts.” Tap under both collar bones or depending on the child’s age or situation, beat the chest like a gorilla, repeating, “afraid of ghosts.” Tap under both arms like you’re giving yourself a hug or for younger kids, we can say scratch like a monkey, repeating “afraid of ghosts.” Repeat the above one more round and when the child calms down, you can say, I’m safe and loved, and repeat till calm. 用3或4隻手指，輕叩眉毛之間，重複「怕鬼」。 用兩隻手指，輕叩雙眼下方，重複「怕鬼」。 輕叩鎖骨下方，或根據孩子年齡或實際情況像猩猩一樣輕捶胸口， 重複「怕鬼」。
This can be used in all situations. 以上方法適用於所有情況。
For example: Timmy is 7 years old and is angry that his little brother Jake takes his toys without asking and sometimes breaks them. The phrase is “mad at Jake” and how he would like to feel could be calm and happy. After a few rounds of EFT, not only will you be able to calm Timmy down, it allows the child and parent to talk about the problem calmly and come up with a solution together.
重複上述步驟一遍，當孩子情緒冷靜下來，你可以說「我很安全，
例如：Timmy 7歲，弟弟Jake沒問過他就拿走他的玩 具，有時還會弄壞它們，讓他十分生氣。這次的短句便 是「生Jake的氣」，而他需要的是平靜與開心。實施情 緒釋放術幾遍後，你不僅能幫助Timmy平靜下來，還能
大家都愛我」，並重複直至孩子完全平靜。
讓孩子與家長平心靜氣地談論問題，並一起找出解決方法。
輕叩兩臂下方，就像自己抱自己一樣，或對於年紀小一些的孩子， 我們可以叫她學猴子一樣亂抓，重複「怕鬼」。
When emotions are calm, it’s easier for both child and parent to come up with a solution that works for everyone. More importantly, it teaches the child a tool that allows them to manage their emotions, and this above all else, is the key to a happy and successful life. 當情緒平靜下來，孩子與家長便都能輕鬆地找出對每個人 都有用的解決方法。更重要的是，它教會了孩子如何管理 情緒，這比甚麼都重要，是獲得快樂與成功人生的關鍵。

North Cape
北角
North Cape is the northernmost point of Europe, with a latitude of 71°. Due to the slightly tilted axis of the earth, the area within the Arctic Circle is exposed to daylight 24 hours a day. As a result, you can see the sun after 12 a.m. The best time to witness this is from May 14 to July 29 every year. Once you exit the North Cape Museum and head towards the end of the cliff, you will be able to enjoy a panoramic view of the endless sea and the natural phenomenon of the midnight sun. 此北角非彼北角。挪威的北角（North Cape）是歐洲的最北端，即北緯約71°。由於地球地軸 傾斜，所以夏天太陽照北半球時，北極圈內的地方24小時都有陽光，午夜12 時還可看到太陽。 每年從5月14日至7月29日是最佳觀賞時間。只要走出北角館，到懸崖邊的瞭望台，遠望浩瀚的 北冰洋，便可以欣賞到午夜太陽。
Unfortunately it was a muggy rainy day when we got there, misty with thick, enveloping fog. The north winds were blowing hard and we were chilled to the bone. We didn’t get to see the midnight sun, and my daughter brought home a postcard of it instead. 可惜我們到達當天密雲有雨，大霧 迷濛。北風呼呼地吹，寒風刺骨。 看不到午夜太陽，女兒唯有把午夜 太陽的明信片帶回家。

Angry Boy 生氣的男孩
Oslo: the Capital
首都奧斯陸
Although Oslo went through a bombing and shooting rampage earlier this year, it can be considered an isolated event. As we toured the streets of Oslo that day, everything was peaceful and quiet. We hope the incident won’t deter people from visiting Norway. Actually Oslo is a city that represents peace; Oslo City Hall is where the Nobel Peace Prize is presented.
The Monolith 生命之柱
Another reason that Oslo is so remarkable is the Vigeland Park located in northwestern Oslo. The whole park is themed on life from birth to death through several hundred sculptures made by renowned sculptor Gustav Vigeland. Every sculpture tells a life; they demonstrate Mr. Vigeland’s exquisite and delicate workmanship. Among them, Angry Boy, The Fountain, and The Monolith are the most popular ones. I couldn’t help wondering if anyone discusses and explores the meaning of life with their kids. 雖然今年奧斯陸發生了炸彈爆炸及槍擊事件，但這只是偶爾事件。其實我們一家當天正正 在奧斯陸，街頭一切也很平靜，希望這些事件不會打退大家到挪威旅遊的意欲。奧斯陸這 地方是和平之地，是每年諾貝爾和平獎的頒獎地，市政廳正正便是頒獎的地方。 奧斯陸最令人留下深刻印象的景點，可說是 在奧斯陸城西北的維吉蘭雕塑公園（Vigeland Park）。整個公園以人生為題，由挪威著名的 雕塑家Gustav Vigeland所雕塑的數百個雕像 所組成，個個都雕工精緻，栩栩如生。其中 最有名的要算是「生氣的男孩」、「生命之 泉」及「生命之柱」。不知大家到這公園時 會否和小朋友一齊思考及探索生命的意義？

MAGGIE BEAUTY 瑪姬專業療膚中心
Where True Beauty Thrives 美麗在成長 Growing up with Maggie Beauty
Maggie Beauty maintains its reputation under the leadership of Alina Tse (left), providing professional beauty treatment services. Now her expertise is incorporated with her daughter and Business Development Manager, Christine Kong. 瑪姬專業療膚中心自 Alina Tse (左)創辦 以來，一路不斷進步，堪為行業彪炳。 如今女兒 Christine Kong 亦以業務拓展 經理身份入主這美麗王國，為它的繼續 成長貢獻自己的心力。
78 PJ | www.peegaboo.com
Having spent many of her childhood years in the beauty centre, Christine learned from her mother, Ms. Alina Tse, the CEO of Maggie Beauty, who runs the centre with passion and enthusiasm, in providing her customers with top quality skin treatment. Christine gradually developed an interest in beauty and skin care. At the same time, she saw the need for upgrading standards. As a result, she decided to study Clinical Nutrition and graduated with a BSc. degree from the University of California-Davis. Maggie Beauty became one of the pioneers in the industry with a certified clinical nutritionist. Coming back to Hong Kong with a
degree did not automatically make her queen of the beauty centre. She started working from the basics like head wrapping and face cleansing for customers, and stocking goods in the warehouse. She became familiar with every aspect of the business before being promoted to her current position. “This is how my mother started her business 26 years ago entirely on her own.” Alina established her empire in 1985 as she saw a growing potential for women’s spending power and their desire to maintain their beauty. She is deeply involved in the business and treats it like her own daughter. As far as she is concerned, she has two daughters under her wings – Maggie Beauty and Christine.

Adhering its core values
Reputable Service One of the important things Christine learned from Alina is giving “honest and practical advice to customers”. “We don’t simply tell our customers that they will get good healthy skin in just one treatment. Skin is our body’s largest organ. Like our health, it takes time for it to recover and stay in good condition.” Alina insisted on providing well-rounded skincare treatment for every customer, catering to their skin types and conditions with a comprehensive follow-up service. Christine picked this up from her mother, resulting in positive feedback from customers and outperforming competition in the industry.

Maggie Beauty sustains its success by introducing new innovations and quality treatment in skincare, especially targeting lumpy skin surfaces, acne, and sensitive skin.

A
few months ago my older son came home from school with surprising news: he had learned to play chess. Now he wanted to play at home. Wow, I thought. Can a 6-year old learn to play chess that quickly? I was impressed, despite myself.
That chess set has become a permanent fixture on our living room floor. More surprising than anything else, my then almost-4year old learned to play as well! To him, it was just another game. So he learned that a knight moves in an L-shape, a rook moves straight, a bishop travels diagonally, etc.
The only chess set we have at home is a set I bought in Bolivia over 10 years ago. It is more of an ornamental set than a functional one. The pieces are made of porcelain (the Incas vs. the Spaniards, how apt!) and whenever anyone plays with them, I threaten to put them on the next plane to Bolivia should one of the pieces break.
I was roped in too, and hurriedly looked up chess rules for kids on the Internet. As a kid I never quite wrapped my mind around chess, but suddenly as an adult I was made to.
So it was with great apprehension that I watched my son playing. I thought his enthusiasm about chess was a passing fad like a hundred other games and toys that had marched their way into our house and been quickly relegated to a dusty shelf. But a week went by, and he still insisted on playing chess. Since I wanted to keep my set intact, we purchased a more functional set.

In the last 6-odd years I was made to participate in ambitious construction projects, play games of war and strategy, set up mock battles and traffic scenes. Chess is the latest.
I sometimes bemoan the fact that I don’t have a daughter with whom to play dress-up, dolls and tea parties. I have two rambunctious boys. But the upshot of it is that they taught me to play chess in adulthood. And they regularly beat me at it.
