As I write this article, Chinese New Year is less than two weeks away. This is my second year celebrating Chinese New Year with my two little darlings. I quite enjoy the festive atmosphere and I’m anticipating the arrival of CNY. Most of our closest friends have become parents in recent years, and our circle of daddy and mummy friends has been hosting various gatherings to celebrate different occasions for the whole family. For this year’s CNY, the theme of one of our gatherings is “Bow Ties & Ribbons” – so these topped my CNY shopping list. Facing a tight timetable as a working mum, I resorted to online shopping, which cost me less time and money to obtain the items for the gathering’s “appointed dress code” and most importantly, what I desired. Indeed, online shopping has become a big hit among parents. Its popularity is attributed to three things that it seems to guarantee: speed, quality, and price. In this issue’s Feature, we talk about online shopping and its trend, sharing with you more of today’s online shopping world.

Valentine’s Day will arrive two weeks after that. It’s time to prepare some sweet surprises for my big and small valentines at home. Shopping can be tiring after a long day’s work. Before recharging my body to hang out, how about charging my phone first – that will surely allow me to shop wherever I want online during my bus journey.

What’s up
We are a Christian family with two lovely daughters, Emmy and Micah. Both of them are happy kids, their laughter make our day a lot easier. I am thankful to God for giving us two little angels. I used to be a “Tiger mom” when my daughter turned 2 years old (she is now 4). That means, I had been shouting at her for almost 2 years! In fact, this is not my actual character. I am a gentle person when I am with my friends and colleagues. I just couldn’t hold my temper whenever my daughter was being naughty. However, I noticed that my yelling just could not improve her behaviour, but leaving her crying like crazy and turning her into an even naughtier kid – my daughter became hot tempered and that she got mad easily. Eventually, I knew something must went wrong – I was too harsh on her, making her afraid of me. I once apologised to my daughter and promised that mummy would not yell at her ever again. From that day onwards, our bond is getting stronger and sweeter. I found that kind words are always the most powerful tools to stop bad behaviours!
Do you have any family traditions or routines? Emmy and Micah love going to church on Sundays where they could meet friends and attend Bible classes. Micah is the younger one and only 10 months old, she likes playing with “church aunties”.

The
Taobao Hype 淘寶大熱
A series of outdoor ads about a lifestyle magazine for youngsters appeared some time last year and caught our eyes. But its theme set off a phenomenon that swept through all demographics: whether you were a student, a white collar lady, a full-time mum, or even a construction worker (my colleague told us!). They were all discussing this “Taobao” thing. Have you encountered anyone at your workplace showcasing some goods and saying “I got this from Taobao at a bargain-basement price!”? 前些日子,地鐵、巴士站、的士車身,都鋪天蓋地出現了一本雜誌 的廣告。雖然該雜誌是針對年輕人的潮流雜誌,但卻掀起了一股跨 越了各個年齡層的潮流:中學生、OL、師奶、地盤阿叔(我們同事 親歷)都在談論「淘寶」這樣東西。作為爸爸媽媽的你,有沒有遇 過身邊同事朋友突然跟你展示戰利品,然後附帶一句:淘寶買的, 好平,好抵!

Taobao in Hong Kong 淘寶在香港 Some say Taobao has revolutionised the way mainlanders shop. This is totally true. Taobao has advanced to become an entrepreneur’s heaven, where many people have made their first fortune. This is not difficult to perceive. As a “factory to the world” producing an infinite numbers of goods, China boasts the most Internet users of any country. The country’s citizens are also emerging as the biggest online spenders, leading to this expeditious development of Taobao. It made a record breaking online sale of RMB 3.36 trillion on “Singles’ Day” last year (November 11). Founded in 2003, Taobao had few Hong Kong users. Last year, with the add value service of Taodot, and pick-up services available at convenience stores which provided a comprehensive service, Taobao’s popularity in Hong Kong surged. The term has landed a place as Google Hong Kong’s 2011 hottest keyword search – Top No. 8. 有人說:淘寶改變了一代內地人的消費模式,這話一點也不假。它 更是很多內地人的創業園地,靠它賺到第一桶金的大有人在。當中 原因不難理解:中國至今仍是「世界工廠」,每天都有無數商品在 生產;中國亦擁有全球最多的網民,他們是超龐大的消費人群,淘 寶超速發展是理所當然的事。去年11月11日的購物節,一日銷售額 就創了33.6億人民幣的紀錄。 早在03年創立的淘寶網一直有零星香港用家。去年,隨著買點數增值 帳戶、便利店取貨等配套的完善,淘寶開始在香港紅起來。Google公 佈的香港2011年度熱門關鍵字搜尋排行榜,「淘寶網」排第8位。

Low-cost is King 「平」字當頭 “It’s cheap!” is most often heard when it comes to Taobao. As many Taobao sellers are also the manufacturers from “the factory of the world,” shoppers benefit from making purchases directly from them. Are Taobao’s cheap goods really “cheap” (low quality)? Yes and No. No, if you know how to dig up high quality goods at low cost. Prices asides, you can also find goods that are special, innovative, or specially-made imported ones. 說到淘寶,許多人的第一個反應會是「平」。皆因淘寶很多賣家都是身處「世界 工廠」的生產者,消費者直接從他們那裡買東西,縮減了中間層層的剝削,自然價 廉。不過別以為「便宜沒好貨」,只要懂得淘,許多貨品都價廉物美。而除了平, 在淘寶還能買到「特別」。很多創意精品、旅行時見到、香港沒有的東西都可在淘 On Willow Darkins, 4.5 yrs

Everyone wants the best quality items at the lowest prices. But if you are a mummy or daddy (full time or working), another reason you might be addicted to Taobao is time: it is a 24-hour market that saves you heaps of actual shopping time.

For example: Christmas. It’s a time of gatherings, and gift-giving to relatives and your dear kids. You might run from one shopping mall to another without making any purchases. Moreover, the daily gathering of the family after work leaves you with no time to do the actual shopping. With Taobao, you can quietly browse one shop after another while your kids are in bed, put the items into the cart, make inquiries if the shop owner is online, and a simple click completes your purchase. All done on your computer.

用最划算的價錢買到最優質的貨品是所有人的願望,但若 你是爸爸媽媽(無論全職抑或上班族),你迷上淘寶可能 多一層原因:淘寶為我們慳了好多時間,或者說,幫我 們「賺」很多時間。皆因淘寶甚麼都有,甚麼時候都可 以買,是真正的一站式、全天候。 譬如聖誕節,許多爸媽都需要為親友買禮物,幫囝囡買 衫褲文具。但如果要在香港買到這麼多種類的東西,可 能要跑好多個商場、好多個地方,卻未必有心水收穫。 況且你可能放工後就要趕著回家,爭取多一些親子時 間,根本沒時間逛街。但若趁孩子睡後打開淘寶網,逐 個輸入你購物清單上的物品,不太挑剔的話,幾小時便能 找齊所有東西。如果賣家online,溝通一下便可落單,之後 便等待貨品送到你手了。

Last year Taobao gained in popularity and was the source of much varied attention. Some people admit to being addicted and obsessed, while others reject and resist Taobao’s lure. We asked some mums to list their reasons for their love and hate of Taobao, and attempted to analyse them. 淘寶網去年開始才在各方推波助瀾下時機成熟,成為香港城中熱話。 但這股熱潮中,有人迅速迷上,不能自拔,有人依然抗拒,無心接 觸。我們分別找來一些媽媽們愛淘寶、不淘寶的理由,並大膽嘗試對 這些理由進行拆解,希望能讓你對淘寶網多一點認識。
Goods from other countries
代購可買到其他 國家的東西 Many Taobao shops can get goods from other countries you can’t find in Hong Kong, and at slashed prices. 你知嗎,很多淘寶店鋪可幫你在歐 美日韓代購名牌,隨時平過香港, 或款式更新。

Taobao Buyer 1
Indoor Shopper 沒時間行街媽媽
Michelle Designer 設計師
With one baby girl named Maddie, aged 6 months 有個6個月大的女兒Maddie My Taobao debut: A table lamp, a year ago. 第一次在淘寶買東西:1年前,買枱燈。 Approx. spending & no. of transactions: HK$4,000 and 20+ transactions 至今在淘寶花費了:約4千蚊,交易次數超過20次 Bad experiences: Made a purchase without receipt from the buyer, cancelled transaction. 不愉快經驗:訂了貨遲遲不發貨,最後要取消訂單。
Most of my purchases on Taobao are outerwear, toys, travel accessories, and baby goods. Since having Maddie, I cannot afford the luxury of outdoor shopping anymore. Taobao has everything: a great variety, and affordable prices. In fact, many goods in Hong Kong are imported from China. The factories also make extra goods to sell. Shopping at Taobao saves me time and money. 我主要買衣服、玩具、旅行用品、嬰兒用品。有了小朋友之後, 平時沒有時間去行街找需要的東西,網上甚麼東西都有,款式又 多,相對平。其實香港很多東西都是從大陸入貨,而且國內很多 工廠會多做一些貨賣出來。所以在網上購物價廉物美又省時間。

With a 4-month-old son 囝囝現時4個月大 My Taobao debut: A table lamp in 2009 第一次在淘寶買東西:2009年,買檯燈。 Approx. spending & no. of transactions: not more than HK$500 and 5-6 transactions in several months. 至今在淘寶花費了:不多於HK$500,交易次數月5-6次。 Bad experiences: Quality of purchased goods varies. Reading comments about product is a requisite before making purchase. 不愉快經驗:貨品質素始終有參差,所以搜購的同時要多看購 買者對貨品的評語作參考。
It was a year before my wedding day and I couldn’t find an ideal wedding head accessory. My colleague introduced me to Taobao, and I really found one that I wanted, with prompt delivery to boot. Superb! When I was pregnant, I fell in love with Taobao, searching for things for my son. Now I mostly search for baby clothes. I have also bought shoes, home furnishing, etc. Taobao has everything. You can find quality goods with a reasonable price if you take the time to search.
Approx. spending & no. of transactions: Cannot recall the total spending, 80+ transactions. 至今在淘寶花費了:已經計唔到,交易次數超過80次 Bad experiences: Received product varied from product photos, wrong sizes, wrong colours. 不愉快經驗:貨品和相片有出入,錯size、錯色。
“Cheap” is all I can say about it! First few purchases were tees, pants, shoes, toys and iPhone accessories. When I moved to a new house a while back, my colleague told me that it’s pretty safe to buy furniture on Taobao. I decided to try, and found some shops with good feedback from other shoppers. This experience earned my confidence for future purchases. Some Taobao shops have an actual store in Shenzhen and I went shopping there. Most of the goods purchased are good quality indeed, and the fact is they are very cheap! I will consider getting my baby furnishings from Taobao when I have kids, but I am still concerned about whether the products are safe for them or not. 一個字:平!之前多買衫、褲、鞋,玩具,及iPhone配件,早

The Rise of
Group Buying
團購崛起
Years ago, you probably never even heard the term “group buying.” Today its pervasiveness is astonishing: e-mails and Facebook flood our lives with updates of daily deals. Group buying, simply put, is discount deals on merchandise, services, or coupons where a large number of people are willing to buy the same item. It’s a win-win situation for both sides: sellers can sell a huge number of commodities, and customers save a great sum of money. 一年多前,你可能完全未聽過「團購」這個名詞。一年多後的 今天,你的電子郵箱每天都會收到來自團購網的訂閱電郵,你 的Facebook上每天都有人轉發最新的團購優惠。團購風潮, 瞬間席捲全城。 所謂團購,就是買家們在團購網站集合到足夠的「落單」人 數,便可以以優惠價格購買或使用來自第三方的賣家的產品、 服務或優惠券。簡單來講,就是賣家薄利多銷,買家買到著 數,慳到錢。
Dining is the Hottest 飲食產品最多 Groupon is the pioneer of group buying sites and also the most visited one in Hong Kong. Having dubbed itself as “a daily deal on the best stuff to do,” its primary services are dining, spa, skincare, and fitness. These are also the top selling services in Hong Kong. For parents, the most attractive deals are home furnishings, photography studios, and family travel deals. 香港人上得最多的團購網,當屬這類網站的開山鼻祖Groupon。它 對自己的自我簡介是「低於一折餐飲、水療、美容、健身」,這 也概括這裡賣得最多的產品——飲飲食食、扮靚享受,非常啱 香港人。而對各位爸爸媽媽來講,最吸引的莫過於一些家用電 器、家庭攝影套餐、酒店旅行套餐的優惠了。

It’s Still Hot! 熱潮未減退 Those crazy price-slashing deals are enough to get anyone to open their wallet. However, the rise in complaints from group buying, mostly due to conflicting terms and conditions, unsatisfactory product or service quality, and inflated original prices, may keep a clamp on your wallet, at least for a little while. Despite these allegations, the group buying fire has not simmered down! In order to compete with new local online group buying sites, a greater variety of services can be seen on Groupon. 很多時候,團購網的超低折扣和價格,的確會令你「嘩」一聲,然後即刻有落單、 俾錢的衝動。不過據新聞報導指,去年消委會接到的有關團購的投訴增多了,原 因多為未細閱條款細則引致糾紛、產品質素未如理想、原價格虛高等。雖 然如此,團購的熱潮似乎未有減退。近來,有不少本地創立的團購網 湧現,你亦會發現每天在Groupon上出售的產品數量越來越多, 種類越來越豐富。

Specification is the New Hot 「專業化」是新趨勢 The group buying fire has swept across the world in the last 2 years, with hundreds of online group buying sites scattered all over the place. Hong Kong is no exception, with more local group buying sites emerging. The saturation and fierce competition of this market has led each of these sites to look for new ways to maintain the confidence of its customers. Some analysts predict group buying in 2012, rather than providing customers with comprehensive products and services, will instead focus specifically on one or a few product types. In this way the quality of merchandise and services can be more easily monitored. For example, one particular group buying site provides only cosmetics, travel, and leather goods. In this way, customers will have greater confidence in their slash deals. 在美國、中國大陸,團購過去兩年間的發展猶如暴風席捲,過百個團購網遍地開花。香港 雖然地方小,亦有多間本地創立的團購網迅速彈起。市場迅速飽和,捱得住的團購網紛 紛尋求新進步,留住顧客。有分析人員指,2012年團購網站的一大發展趨勢是專業 化,即出現販售化妝品、旅遊、鞋包等專類產品的團購網。因為專業化團購網站 只專注於一類商品,產品質素更易監控,服務質素亦更易保證。這樣,買家才 可以既買到著數,又買得放心。

Mama Shops in Groups Online shop created by mum to mums
媽媽團購大不同 We often hear our colleagues clamouring around their computer screens, saying how good the bargain is at “Today’s Deals.” Many working mummies join their coworkers in their first group buying endeavour for some dining and entertainment deals. But as parents, we know that our ultimate goal is deals for our kids. We cannot resist any bargains from babies’ accessories to children’s books. Our eyes light up when we find a great slashing of prices on these kind of daily deals. This is probably the reason why mummy Ginny Tse, founder of Mamaishop.com, understands the needs of parents and established this group-buying site for parents. 時不時聽到同事指著電腦螢幕上的「今日優惠」大叫「好抵啊!」, 不少OL媽媽都曾貪新鮮,跟著同事一起團購,但來來去去都是一些 吃喝玩樂的東西。做了爸媽的都知道,這些對我們來講都是「浮雲」 ,我們的荷包早已圍繞著我們的孩子轉,他們吃的、穿的,尤其是學
Ginny Tse Founder of Group Shopping Site Mamaishop.com 我愛Mama團購網 創辦人
習會用到的。所以,專門販賣嬰幼兒用品、早教用品的團購網,爸媽 更願意每天上去望多幾眼,看看每天的「今日優惠」。這大概正是 「我愛Mama團購網」(www.mamaishop.com) 建立的初衷——網站創 辦人Ginny Tse說她和她的員工們很多都是為人父母,知道父母們真正 需要哪方面的實惠。
What made you think of establishing a parenting group buying site?
為甚麼會想到成立一個專為媽媽們而設、出 售嬰幼兒產品的團購網?
Speaking about Mamaishop.com, I should start with our “woaimama” Facebook Fan Page. I was a new mum a few years ago and just recently had my second child. I found I had many baby caring queries that I could not find the answer to – either online or in books. At that time, I hoped to find a way for new mums and experienced mums to gather, share, and support each other. When my son had chicken pox, another mum told me, “No worries, it happened to my son too.” In this way I was able to find comfort and support. So I started this Facebook Page where all mummies can instantly answer you at anytime, anywhere. It turned out we were right. We currently have over 100,000 people and it is the largest Facebook group for local mummy community.
講「我愛Mama團購網」,就一定要先講「我愛Mama」
Every mummy knows household expenses go up with a kid in the family. So they look around to save big. Therefore we already recognised the potential when group buying had just started in Hong Kong, to gather slash bargain goods online for parents. Many full-time mums with no domestic helpers may not have time to do actual shopping. It is a huge money and time saver to get the goods online and get them delivered at home or to daddy’s office.

Facebook組群。我自己也是媽媽,剛剛生完第二個小孩。 幾年前生第一胎的時候,我亦是一個新手媽咪。在實戰中, 我發現很多湊BB、照顧BB的問題,原來書中、網上的文章未 必能幫到我。那時候,我便希望有一種途徑可以將一班有經驗 的媽媽、或者同樣是新手的媽媽集結在一起,大家一起share大 家遇到的問題,就好似同一時間有人默默support你一樣。就如 那次我擔心兒子發水痘的情況,即時有人跟我說:「唔使驚, 我囝囝都是這樣的」,我會立刻放心一些。所以生完第一胎不 久,便在Facebook建立了「我愛Mama」Fan Page,畢竟現時 每個人都會用Facebook,從Facebook上得到的回應也是最即 時、及時的,即使半夜三更問餵奶的事情,可能很快有人答覆 你。事實證明我們的想法是對的,現時我們的Fan Page已有超 過10萬人like,是全港最大的Facebook媽媽群組。 而做媽媽的都知道,家中多了小朋友,消費自然高了,所以很 多時候買東西都會希望慳一些。所以年多前團購網在香港興起 時,我們亦順理成章地想到,為媽媽們搜羅一些價廉物美的東 西,放在網上讓媽媽們團購。我們很多全職在家湊孩子的媽 媽,可能沒有家傭幫手,根本抽不出太多時間上街買東西。 如果能在網上落單,再送到家中或爸爸的辦公室,絕對是一 件慳錢又慳時間的事。
What’s the difference between Mamaishop.com and other group buying sites? 我愛Mama團購網和其他團購網站有甚麼不同? • I think the point is that our site targets group buying for parents. The merchandises on our site focus on babies, household, and parents’ needs , and all these products and learning courses are guaranteed on their exceptional qualities. Our sales department is mostly composed of mums; they use parenting perspectives and look for things suitable for families. • Besides, our two existing platforms, Facebook and Mamaishop. com, offer a level of frankness and honesty that all our members can see. So when one mum posts a comment on Facebook about products’ quality issue, over 100,000 fans will be able to see it, and we can further monitor the quality of the merchandise we have on the site. • In addition, we ask the shops to provide a delivery service to the door as this is a huge convenience for full-time mums who need to take care of their babies at all times. • 我想最重要的一點在於我們是針對媽媽這個群體的團購網,所販售 貨品全都圍繞著BB、家居或媽媽們真正需要的東西,而且所揀選產 品、課程等都是有品質、有口碑。我們銷售部門的同事幾乎都是媽 媽,所以更懂得從媽媽的角度出發,知道甚麼東西適合小朋友。 • 另外,我們是先有Facebook組群,再有團購網。一旦有媽媽買到的 貨品有問題,在Facebook一講,10萬粉絲都會即時看到。所以我們 網站的透明度是相對高很多,我們對貨品質素的把關亦更嚴格。 • 此外,我們亦會盡可能地要求商戶提供送貨上門的服務給買家們,畢 竟我們的用戶多為全職媽媽,這會給她們很大的方便。
• Contact the email of group buying sites’ customer service if you have any enquiries concerning the products and see if they are able to instantly solve your concerns.
Tips to Parents on Group Buying 給家長的團購小貼士
• Take the time to read the site’s terms and conditions carefully, including issue dates, product ingredients, etc. Do not purchase the products simply based on their deals. • Mummies can try to verify if the products from one particular group buying site are the best deal, compared to the price of the same products listed in other local retail shops. • 如果對產品有任何疑問,可透過該團購網的客戶服務電郵地址查詢,看對 方能否即時地回答到你的問題。 • 認真了解這次交易的條款及細則,包括到期日、產品原料等等,不要看到 價錢抵就按「購買」。 • 有時候某件產品在某個團購,可能未必是市面上最平的,媽媽們亦可以嘗 試查證一下。

Green plants can serve as natural indoor air fresheners, allowing for an effective and balanced interchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. Beside their air-cleansing role, green plants can also serve to soothe the volatile emotions of expecting mothers. However, when it comes to choosing the right plants, avoid any that may cause skin or other irritations; these may pose an adverse effect on pregnant women and their unborn children.

綠色植物,是房間內的天然空氣清新 器,通過光合作用能夠有效進行氣體 交換,保持室內氧氣和二氧化碳的比 例均衡。除了淨化空氣之外,還有助 孕媽媽調節心情。然而,孕媽媽選擇 盆栽的時候,要避免發出刺激性氣味 和易引起皮膚過敏的花草,以免孕婦 身體和胎兒產生不良反應。
Harmful 有害 Jasmine, Asphodel, Magnolia, Sweet-scented Oleander, and Christmas Flower: These floral plants contain strong aromas that may irritate pregnant women’s nervous systems, resulting in the dulling of the olfactory sense, a jaded appetite and even headaches, nausea and vomiting; in the most severe cases, it may cause instability in fetal development, or a miscarriage. 茉莉、水仙、木蘭、夾竹桃、聖誕花: 具有濃郁香氣等花卉,有可能刺激孕婦的神經,會引起孕婦嗅覺不 靈,食欲不振,甚至引起頭痛、噁心和嘔吐。嚴重的還可能導致胎兒 不穩;甚至流產。
Evening Primrose, and Clove Lilac: These flowers draw in oxygen and breathe out at night time. The decrease of the amount of oxygen indoors is disadvantageous to the health of pregnant women and their fetuses. They need plenty of oxygen to maintain their high metabolism. 夜來香、丁香: 這等花卉在夜間吸進新鮮的氧氣,吐出二氧化碳從而奪走居室內的氧 氣,導致室內空氣含氧量下降,對孕婦及胎兒的健康十分不利。因為 孕婦代謝旺盛,需要充分和新鮮的氧氣供應。
Rohdea Japonica, Hyacinthus Orientalis, Pelargonium, Harbinger-of-spring: The chemical elements from the pollen or the juice of these flowers may easily cause an allergic reaction. Since bacterial resistance of women declines during pregnancy, acute allergic reactions can occur when the pollen falls on the skin or is inhaled, causing symptoms of pain, itchiness or oedema. 萬年青、馬櫻丹、洋繡球、報春花: 花粉或汁液易引起過敏,因為一般都含有某些化學成分。孕婦在懷孕 期間抵抗力下降,如果花粉落到皮膚上或被吸入呼吸道,會發生急性 過敏反應,出現疼癢、皮膚茹膜水腫等症狀。
Floral plants with a mild fragrance that release oxygen day and night are the most suitable for pregnant women. In terms of working women who are expecting a baby, it is even more important to choose the right kinds of potted plants due to various kinds of odors and noxious gases, and lack of sufficient sunlight in offices.
香氣清淡、白天晚上均能釋放氧氣的花草種 類,最適合孕媽媽。對於上班一族的孕媽, 辦公室裡有著各種氣味和有毒氣體,同時欠 缺陽光,選對合適的盆栽更加重要。

Healthful 有益 The Cactus, and Ball Cactus: This species of anti-radiation plant is helpful for resisting electromagnetic waves in offices. Gardening specialists recommend these kinds of plants be placed next to computers; this is because thorny cacti contain considerable moisture and can easily absorb and defuse radiotoxins from electromagnetic fields in the surrounding environment and reduce both indoor and outdoor pollution. 仙人掌、仙人球: 這類防輻射植物有助對抗辦公室中的電磁波,有園藝專家建議可以將 其放在電腦旁。由於仙人掌類帶刺的身肉質厚並含豐富水分,易於吸 收和化解周圍環境的電磁場輻射毒素,減少室內外的污染。
Chinese Aloe, Bartlett Pear, Tangerine, Cantaloupe and Little Pumpkin: Chinese aloe can absorb some harmful substances such as formaldehyde; as for those pregnant women who work for long hours at a computer, it is better to place some fruit beside the computer as a natural smell absorbent. 蘆薈、啤梨、桔、哈密瓜、小南瓜: 蘆薈能吸收室內一些有害物質如甲醛等,長期在電腦前工作的孕媽媽, 亦可在電腦前擺放水果,以作自然吸收劑和除味劑。
Chlorophytum Comosum, Sansevieria Thunb, Orchis Cyclochila, and Monstera Deliciosa: These kinds of ornamental foliage plants are natural scavengers. They do not give off irritating odours; they not only purify the air, but are also hardy. 吊蘭、虎尾蘭、一葉蘭、龜背竹: 這類葉狀植物是天然的清道夫,不會散發出刺激性的氣味,不僅可以 淨化空氣,又有較強的生命力。
Epipremnum Aureum: Its heart-shaped leaves make for effective interior decor. This plant can break down poisonous substances such as formaldehyde, benzene, carbon monoxide and nicotine released from textile fabrics, wall surfaces and air pollution. 黃金葛: 心形葉子有室內裝飾作用,能通過類似光合作用的過程,把織物、牆 面和煙霧中釋放的有毒物質,如甲醛、苯、一氧化碳、尼古丁等,分 解為植物自有的物質。

Ficus Benjamina: It is one of the most beautiful indoor ornamental plants and a very effective air purifier; it not only increases humidity that is beneficial to our skins and breathing, but is also capable of absorbing formaldehyde, dimethylbenzene and ammonia gas, further purifying the air. 垂葉榕: 是房間裡的漂亮裝飾,亦是十分有效的空氣淨化器,可以提高房間的濕度有益於 我們的皮膚和呼吸。同時它還可以吸收甲醛、二甲苯及氨氣並淨化混濁的空氣。
Dracaena Marginata: It is suitable for the dim and dry environment of an office. Its leaves and roots can absorb dimethylbenzene, toluene, trichloroethylene, benzene and formaldehyde, breaking up these substances into innoxious ones, and inhibiting harmful carcinogens. 千年木: 能適應辦公室的昏暗及乾燥環境,葉片與根部能吸收二甲苯、甲苯、三氯乙烯、 苯和甲醛,並將其分解為無毒物質,能抑制有害物質。
A few tips for expectant parents It would probably be best to choose varieties of plants and flowers that can be easily looked after and are hardy (do not wilt or die easily), being mindful of pregnant women’s mood swings. It would probably be best not to add new varieties of plants in every corner. Having more indoor plants does not necessarily mean better health. Generally speaking, it is sufficient to place 1 large or mediumsized plant and 2 - 3 small potted plants. 最好選擇一些比較好照料的、生命力非常強的品種,避 免植物的枯萎或死亡,影響孕媽媽的心情。 最好不要動輒在室內增加新植物品種,因為室內養的花 草,並不是越多越好。一般來說,大中型植物1盆,小型 植物2-3盆便已足夠。

Note • Many of the baby proofing items, such as electrical socket protectors, are readily available in Hong Kong. Bumps to Babes has a good supply of these products. • You may also want to take a Child Safety and CPR course, so you are more aware and feel more confident what to do in an emergency. Several of these are offered in Hong Kong. • In short, never leave your baby unattended. Parental supervision is of utmost importance. • If you do need to go into another room leaving baby unsupervised, think of investing in a play pen, when they can move and play in safety. • The list is not exhaustive and there does seem a lot to organise but a parent must be on the lookout once baby has discovered the joys of mobility. You just need to be one step ahead! • This is the beginning of an adventurous childhood in which exploration plays a great part. Don’t be overly protective, just follow the guidelines along with some good common sense and enjoy the delights of their discovery too.

• 許多保護寶寶安全的物品,例如電源插座防護套,都可以在香港 買到。Bumps to Babes店裡有許多這樣的產品。
• 你可能會想參加兒童安全及心肺復甦法訓練課程,以便應對緊 急狀況。香港許多地方也可以找到這樣的課程或培訓。
• 一句到尾,不要把寶寶放在一邊不管。父母的看護是寶寶最安 全貼心的保障。
• 如果你必須離開寶寶到其他地方,那就為寶寶準備一個遊戲床, 安心地讓寶寶在那裡安全地玩耍。
• 當然,這裡的建議不可能涵蓋所有方面。但是,一旦你的寶寶 發現了四處活動的樂趣,你就必須提高警惕,好好安排一下。
• 這是愛冒險、愛探索的童年的開始。要採取措施,但不要緊張。 合理地照顧和保護你的孩子,並跟他們一起在探索和發現中尋 找樂趣。

Teach Kids about Money and Saving
The 10 Vital Lessons Your Child Must Learn!
新年過後學理財
10 堂課教精孩子
Text | Rachel Incoll
There are 10 basic money skills that every child should learn before they enter the teenage years. It’s never too late to learn, but most children are far more receptive to ideas from their parents before they hit the age of thirteen, than after. 每一個小朋友都應在踏入青少年期之前,掌握以下10項基本理財技 巧。雖說有心不怕遲,但大部分小朋友在13歲前,最易接納父母的 勸告,所以家長還是應該把握時機。
1 Money doesn’t grow on trees! One of the best known and oldest quotes around. It is important that children understand from early on that money is a limited resource, that mom and dad’s bank account will eventually run dry if they keep making withdrawals from it. 錢不會從天而降!我們常 常說這句話。孩子應該自 小明白一個非常重要的概 念:錢是有限的資源,也 就是說如果爸媽不斷到銀 行提錢,終有一天會耗盡 戶口裡的錢。

People go to work to earn money. Money is something that needs to be earned, you are never going to become financially secure sitting around not doing anything, and expecting handouts from people. 每個人必須工作才能賺取金錢。錢是需要賺回來的,如果一 個人終日無所事事,只靠別人資助,將永遠無法建立鞏固的 經濟基礎。
3
Credit cards are a form of borrowing. Believe it or not, surveys have shown that an alarmingly high number of teenagers don’t realise that credit cards are a form of borrowing. If they don’t understand this basic concept, it leaves them at risk of running up crippling credit card debts. 信用咭是借貸工具之一。你可能覺得不可置信,但有很多年輕人並不知道使用信 用咭是借貸的一種,這情況使人擔憂。如果他們不明白這個基本概念,將來很有 可能會因為不善運用信用咭而導致債台高築。

5
盡量避免借貸。在任何情況下,緊守不隨便向人
There is good debt and bad debt. No debt is really all that good, but some forms of debt will make you money while others cost you money. Good debt can include a home loan, investment loan or business loan, as these items have a tendency to make money above the amount of interest you have to pay. Bad debt can include credit cards, personal loans or car loans, as these items never make you any money.

替你賺錢,這包括了信用咭、個人債務和汽車貸款。

If you don’t have the cash to buy something, then you can’t afford it. 如你不能以現金購買某件物品,即表示你買不起它。
7
Spend less than you earn. Many people these days are spending 10% to 20% above what they earn, creating a vicious cycle of high credit card interest rates, long hours at work to pay the credit cards and in some cases bankruptcy. The knowledge of how to budget your money seems to have been lost, make sure your child learns this important lesson! 你花費的金額絕不能超過你賺取的數目。現時有很多人的花費比他們所能 賺取的金額超出10%至20%,結果導致惡性循環:信用咭利息高昂,欠債 人需要超時工作,償還高築的債務,有時更是弄至破產收場。現今人們好 像忘記了應有的理財技巧。家長應確保子女學習這重要的一課!

10
A portion of your money should be given to the needy. Around 10% of your money should be given to those who are in need/charities. 把一部分的收入給予有需要的人。你應把大約10%的收入捐贈予慈 善機構或有需要的人。
9 Pay yourself first. This is what I call your sanity money! Allow 10% of your money for yourself to spend however you wish. 留錢給自己用。這是理智用錢的原則!預留10%的收入給自己,讓 自己可以隨心所欲,購買想要的東西。
Save at least 10% of your money. Like budgeting, the skill of saving money seems to have been lost over the last 20 years, with fewer people than ever before regularly saving a proportion of their income. 最少儲蓄10%的收入。儲蓄這美德和理財 技巧一樣,在過去20年被人們遺忘了。 現今很少人有固定把部分入息儲起來的 習慣。

Managing Money in Different Age Groups
不同年紀學理財
Text | Greg R Smith
Money expert Greg R Smith tells parents how and when to teach their kids about money. He said: “Teach them young and they will carry forward that knowledge and live a better financial life.” He provides a few tips: 理財專家Greg R Smith教家長如何指導子女善用金錢。他說:「孩子應從小學會以正 確態度對待金錢,給孩子灌輸理財知識,使他們長大後善於管理自己的財務。」他向 家長提供了以下貼士。
3-7 1. Show them the value of money by explaining what $10 can and can’t buy. It may be an idea to do this whilst walking down the super market aisle or toy aisle (if you are game!). 2. Let them watch you pay for things. You may even start by letting them hand over the cash or pressing the OK button on the ATM. 3. Do not give them notes. Pay their pocket money in coins as your children need to understand how to allocate their money. 4. Show them how to visualise their goals. Get them to draw what they want to save up for. Keep the goals realistic otherwise they will very quickly lose interest.
What they learn:
• Different things have different values. • Money simply doesn’t grow on trees and that you have to work for your money. • You have to allocate your money for different things. 1. 向孩子解釋金錢的價值,例如10元可以買到甚麼、不能買到甚麼。帶孩子去超級市 場或玩具店,選購貨物時,正是進行這個活動的大好時機。
2. 讓孩子看見你買東西時要付錢。你可以讓他們付錢給收銀員,或提款時由孩子來按 「OK」鍵。
3. 不要給這個年紀的孩子紙幣。給他們零用錢時,最好給硬幣,這使他們較容易分配金錢。 4. 向孩子解釋如何想像他們的目標。指導他們寫下儲蓄目標。目標要符合實際,否則他們很快會 對目標失去興趣。
他們要學習的是: • 不同的貨物有不同的價值。 • 金錢不會從天而降,每個人都需要工作來賺取金錢。 • 購買不同的物品時,要懂得分配金錢。
48
PJ | www.peegaboo.com
7-12 1. Get them interested in looking at their bank statements and following how much money they are saving. This will get them used to scanning banking paperwork. 2. Get them to start thinking of a long term saving goal and work out how long it will take them to reach that goal. 3. Give them a combination of notes and coins for their pocket money. This will really strengthen their allocation abilities and efficient usage of spare change. 4. Start showing them the family bills and explain positively that the bills have to be paid to keep the family going.
What they will learn:
• Saving is a planned activity and something that needs a bit of thought rather that just putting away what’s left over. • The value of small change. • It takes a fair bit of money and good money management skills to keep a roof over their head. 1. 教他們閱讀銀行對帳單,讓他們知道自己有多少存款,增加他們對理財的興趣,也使他們養成閱讀 銀行戶口資料的習慣。
2. 引導孩子開始訂立一個長遠的儲蓄目標,計算要儲蓄多久才能達到目標。 3. 給孩子零用錢時,給他們一些硬幣和一些紙幣。這樣可以加強他們分配金錢的能力,有效利用零錢。 4. 開始給孩子看家裡水電雜費等的帳單,向他們解釋爸媽如何繳付帳項,維持一家的收支平衡。
他們要學習的是: • 儲蓄不只是把餘錢儲起來,而是需要籌劃和細心盤算的活動。 • 零錢的價值。 • 要生活有保障,必先有一筆可觀的金錢和熟練的理財技巧。

Better Bedtimes, More Sleep
孩子不想睡? Text | Tina Stephenson
S
leep, precious sleep; most adults are chronically short of sleep. Every working day we fall asleep on buses, trains and planes; within 5 minutes of departure, most buses are full of gently snoring adults. We dream about sleep at our desks at work and we usually spend the first several days of holiday times just trying to catch up on it. Most parents can’t remember the last time they awoke in the morning feeling refreshed and energised, there just never seems to be enough time to get enough sleep. Which can make it all the more confusing and frustrating when we can’t get our children to get to sleep at night. As soon as bedtime approaches most children begin to think of ways they can stay up later. Some nights there are even tears and temper tantrums at bedtime. And then when you finally are able to get them off to bed, 10 minutes later you hear your child softly calling “Mummy I can’t sleep, can I have a drink of water?” Bedtime is a frustrating time in many people’s homes. But resistance to going to bed is quite normal and there are many reasons why children do not like to be tucked in for a long night. Most days are long and busy. We see our children briefly before we are rushing off to work and school. And then the evenings are filled with lessons, classes and homework. Before we know it, its bedtime! I think the biggest reason that many children resist going to bed is because they are trying to get more time with their parents. When bedtime comes around it is as though they suddenly realise that the day is over and some children feel a genuine anxiety and sadness that the precious time with their parents is coming to an end. Or
54
PJ | www.peegaboo.com
maybe they have not seen their parents at all that evening… However long our working hours and however much homework there may be, it is very important to spend some good quality time with your child everyday. And I don’t mean watching TV, taking them to a lesson or doing homework, those things may seem important, but spending time together talking, reading aloud or playing quiet games is much more important. Try your best to set aside at least one hour every evening with the TV off; sharing, quiet, relaxed activities with your child. In fact this hour together is also a great lead up to the beginning of the bedtime routine. I promise that just setting aside this time and putting aside all the tasks for the day on a consistent basis to spend some quality time with your child will begin to ease bedtime frustrations. But the key to smooth bedtimes (at least most of the time) is establishing and sticking with a good bedtime routine.
The bedtime routine
The first step in establishing a good bedtime routine is to set a bedtime and stick to it, with very few exceptions. Children need at least 10 hours sleep per night to maintain healthy growth of their body and mind. So in setting a bedtime consider the child’s wake up time and the fact that they should be able to sleep for at least 10 hours and then add at least one hour for the bedtime routine. I know an hour sounds like a lot of time, but I think the second biggest reason it is difficult to get children off to bed is because they have not been given enough time to unwind and relax in preparation for bedtime and sleep.
TV is stimulating, video games are exciting, home work demands concentration and focus, it is unrealistic to expect children to be able to just stop doing things that are demanding and instantly drop off to sleep. It is like this for everyone, but most of us are so sleep deprived that it becomes easy to drop off to sleep at anytime. A child who is falling asleep in front of the TV must be quite exhausted to be able to sleep in the middle of all the excitement. Children need time to get ready to go to sleep, both physically and psychologically. The bedtime routine can start with a warm bath or shower, brushing teeth and getting into their pajamas. These actions send clear messages that the activities of the day have stopped and it is time to get ready to rest. The bedtime routine should also start with the TV being turned off. It is very hard for a child to go off to get ready for bed with other family members still staying up to watch their favourite shows and movies. TV is just too distracting and too tempting for a child (and an adult) so in order have a real bedtime routine the home should be quiet and the lights dimmed. The next step in a bedtime routine should be stories until bedtime. Reading stories together before bed is an excellent activity. Reading to your child increases their vocabulary, improves their sentence structure and makes them more interested in reading and learning. But also it is a soothing and relaxing activity for both parent and child. And finally, when the established bedtime comes, it is time to put down the story-book and turn out the lights. Your child may complain, but they are much more likely to drift off to sleep after all of the relaxing activity and attention from their parents.

睡
眠多寶貴!很多成年人都長期缺乏睡眠。無論巴士上、地 鐵上、飛機上,每天早上都能看到憨憨入睡的人們。大多 數上班族都會在逼巴士時眯上雙眼,即使只有短短十幾分
鐘車程。工作時,昏昏入睡常常有;假期前幾天總會蒙頭睡上幾天, 補補覺。最後一次睡到自然醒、精神百倍地投入一天的工作是甚麼時 候?大多數做父母的早就不記得了吧?好像怎麼也找不到充足的時間 好好睡一覺。 然而許多家長都很迷網兼沮喪:為何每天晚上哄孩子睡覺都那麼難。 快到睡覺的時間,很多孩子都會想出各種捱夜的點子。有時候,為了 讓孩子上床睡覺,家長甚至會訴諸「暴力」,讓孩子哭喊不止。可剛 把他們氹到床上10分鐘,他們又會輕聲叫道:「媽媽,我睡不著,想 喝杯水!」每天趕孩子上床睡覺的時間對很多家庭都是極盡煎熬的。 不過,他們不想上床睡覺是很正常的事情。孩子不想鑽進被窩,暖暖 地睡個好覺,也是有很多原因的。
電視節目讓孩子情緒激動,電子遊戲讓他們興奮異常,而做功

睡覺了。睡前一小時,也應該把電視關掉。如果家裡還有人在

良好作息習慣是關鍵 建立良好作息習慣的第一步,就是制定並保持固定的睡覺時間,而且 不要有太多例外情況。兒童每天晚上至少需要10小時的睡眠,才能夠 保證他們健康的身心發育。所以,在制定睡眠時間時,要考慮到孩子 的起床時間,保證孩子10小時的睡眠;而且至少還要再增加一小時的 時間,用來跟孩子互動。我知道一小時聽起來很長,但我覺得孩子晚 上不想上床睡覺的第二大原因,是他們沒有足夠的時間放鬆下來,無 法安靜地躺在床上。
父母對他們的關懷,已經可以讓他們安靜地睡覺了。

The ISF Shuyuan Program
Investigating Culture and Civilization 弘立「書院」項目 探索文化與文明 The Independent Schools Foundation Academy (“The ISF Academy”), a future-focused school strongly grounded in Chinese cultural values, caters to the increasing demand for Putonghua-English immersion education of the highest calibre in an enquiry-based learning environment.
弘立書院是一所放眼未來,植根中華文化的非牟利學校。 弘立書院提供一套獨特的教學模式,在傳統中華文化和現 代價值觀的基礎上,以優質的普通話和英語沉浸式課程, 讓學生學習各種知識,接受不同的文化差異。
The ISF Academy has recently founded its “Shuyuan” program, a unique learning experience offered by no other school in the world. It was introduced in order to bring the spirit of the traditional Chinese Shuyuan into the 21st century through the systematic study of ancient classics and a comparative study of Eastern and Western cultures.
弘立最近成立一項新課程——「書院」項目,此乃弘立獨 一無二的科目,可以肯定地說,全世界也沒有任何一所學 校會提供這樣的課程。弘立成立「書院」項目,是發揚傳 統書院的精神,希望在二十一世紀的今天,通過學生有系 統地學習古代經典,對東西方文化進行深入的比較研究。
But what exactly is Shuyuan? In Chinese history, a “shuyuan” was a nongovernmental institution of officials and scholars that functioned as a repository for books; and a place where scholars could lecture and conduct research, develop academic schools of thought, and promote academic freedom.
事實上,甚麼是「書院」呢?中國遠古早有著悠久的書 院傳統歷史。書院,是和官學相對的民間辦學機構;它的 職能:一,為藏書,二,為文人講學和研究經典的場所, 三,為著書立說,發展學術交流和提倡學術自由的地方。
The Shuyuan Program at The ISF Academy provides students with a new learning experience and a space for personal growth. It was founded on the belief that wisdom only comes from a deep understanding of virtue and from its practice in daily life. In this program, students need to be strongly committed to the vision and mission of the school, including the Eight Virtues + One and the IB Learner Profile. The program is taught in small classes, alternating between a Chinese and a Western focus. It includes classical literature, mythology, historiography, and biography as well as drama, poetry, and works on statecraft, philosophy, and religion. Students undergo systemic linguistic training in how to read classical texts. By looking to the past and closely studying challenging texts, students discover where they have come from. With that knowledge they are wellplaced to then start asking themselves “where do we go from here?”. It is this type of inquiry which makes ISF Academy students and the Shuyuan Program unique.

3 Siblings Aging Gap: Is Bigger the Better? 子女間差幾歲最好? The arrival of a new family member is always wonderful to the expected parents; it would bring new changes to the family in a whole new perspective. It would be more grateful to hear if a second child or more is coming on your way. While celebrating the second (or further) incoming, parents should not left the older child behind, as the age differences of the two siblings may affect their psychological development. As a specialist in children psychology and family therapy, Dr. Louis D.S. Kok believes that while closer age gap might be easier to provoke jealousy and rivalry between siblings, it can also form a closer and intimate siblings bonding if it is handled properly. For siblings with larger age gaps, he suggests a different kind of attention.
有新家庭成員到來,父母當然感到無比開心,但他們 亦將迎來各種新的挑戰。第二個孩子或者第三第四個 孩子的誕生總會令人歡欣雀躍。然而,父母在慶祝新 寶寶到來的時候,不要把家裡面大囝大囡拋諸腦後, 因為兄弟姐妹之間的年齡差異會對他們的心理發育產 生一定的影響。 兒童心理及家庭療法專家郭迪舜博士認為,兄弟姐妹 間的年齡差距越小,越容易產生嫉妒,引發爭吵。不 過如果處理得當的話,他們也會變得親密無間。對於 年齡差較大的孩子,郭博士建議對孩子們採取不同的 關注方法。
Dr. Louis D.S. Kok 郭迪舜博士 Dr. Louis Kok is the Principal Psychologist at the Hong Kong Institute for Children’s Mental Health. He is also a professional member of Amercian Counseling Association and other family therapy associations. He specialises in child psychology, family counseling, and pastoral care. 郭迪舜博士是現任香港兒童心理健康中心執行總監,首席心理學家,資深牧靈(教牧)輔導導 師。他榮獲美國心理學會(APA)院士、美國輔導協會專業會員、及多個國際專業輔導協會會 員。擅長兒童心理、家庭治療及牧養關顧輔導。

In a board definition, age differences between siblings of approximately 3 years and above is considered a large gap. There are no right gaps between siblings, as the differences depend on family backgrounds and their personalities. Despite these facts, there are a number of factors for parents to be aware before and after birth.

總括來講,兄弟姐妹間的年齡差距在3歲 左右或以上就算是比較大了。當然,孩 子間也沒有所謂最適合的年齡差距,因 為每個家庭都有不同的背景、家庭成員 的性格也各不相同。 Photo | Disney Junior
Older siblings’ psychological concern
From his previous experiences in meeting families with siblings’ big age gaps, Dr. Kok found that most of the older siblings appeared indifferent toward the news of their younger brother or sister arrival to the family. Some appeared reluctant and felt the news about the arrival of a new family member unimpressive to them. It may be the case because they have been the center of parents’ attention over the years, and now their attention is being taken partly or totally towards their younger brother or sister. Some children who tend to be more independent have already adapted the lifestyle of being alone. They may felt distressed toward their younger siblings, especially the ones who developed a dependency toward their older ones for a sense of security. These older siblings expressed annoyance and felt frustrated that their personal space was intervened by their younger siblings.
哥哥姐姐心裡在想甚麼? 郭博士曾與很多家庭接觸過,他發現在一個家庭,如果孩 子們的年齡差很大,大多數大點兒的孩子對弟弟妹妹的誕 生無動於衷。有些甚至表現出厭惡,感覺家庭新成員的到 來與他們毫無關係。可能是因為大點兒的孩子以前一直是
父母的掌上明珠,現在父母卻要把部分或者全部精 力投入到弟弟、妹妹的身上。 一些漸漸獨立的孩子已經習慣了三口之家的生活方 式,弟弟妹妹的到來,特別是對哥哥姐姐很依賴、 希望得到安全感的弟弟妹妹,會讓大孩子們感到很 壓抑。個人空間被弟弟妹妹「無故」攪亂,也會讓 他們心煩意亂,抑鬱沮喪。

Avoiding hostility: what can parents do?
Dr. Kok suggests a few advices to make this family moment a wonderful and intimate experience instead of a dilemma. Before the birth of the second child, parents should prepare and equip their older children going through this family journey. This can also serves as both a bonding and family education for the whole family. • Parents should let children understand and accept the news gracefully. Get children involved in mother’s pregnancy and give them a chance to understand the whole motherhood experience. For example, parents can show their children the ultrasound photo of the baby, and give them a chance to raise questions about the baby in mum’s tummy. • From time to time, parents should hold a family meeting to discuss the things they expect after childbirth. Use the time to discuss the changes of family structure and rescheduling of household chores, such as their time for bath or mealtime. • Parents should give older children an inclusive family atmosphere that “we are one family”, reminding them that their love and care to every child will keep in an equilibrium. Parents should candidly advise them that, although they might take some of their time in caring for the new baby, but the love towards the older child will never cease. • For some older children, the arrival of younger siblings may mean they are advancing to a new phrase as a “leading sibling.” They may be responsible in taking care of the younger ones while parents are away. Parents should acknowledge and give praise of their responsible role from time to time. Some older children may take this caring role as a burden, as they see this responsibility is a one way contributing effort with no rewards. In this case, instead of forcing them to mature big brother/sister, parents can turn their role as a “playful companion” to their younger ones. In this way, older children will ease their pressure and both children can have a good time.
42 孩子間生敵意,如何避免?
下面是郭博士提供的幾項建議,可以幫助這些家庭避免尷 尬處境,建立親密無間的家庭關係。第二個孩子出生之 前,父母應該教育、引導大孩子一同迎接弟弟或妹妹的
到來。這同時也會加強整個家庭的聯繫,產生積極作用。 • 父母應讓大孩子正確地理解並接受這個訊息,讓他們參 與,與母親一同感受十月懷胎的期待與期盼。譬如可以 給他們看小寶寶的超聲波圖片,讓他們懷著好奇的心情 詢問各種關於媽媽肚子裡小寶寶的事情。 • 父母應該不時地召開家庭會議,討論小寶寶到來之後的 事情。可以趁這個機會討論以後家庭結構的變化和對家 庭瑣事的安排,譬如洗澡或是吃飯的時間等等。 • 父母應該給大孩子一種包容的家庭氛圍,告訴他們「我 們是一家人」。讓他們知道,父母對每個孩子的愛和關 懷都始終如一,不偏不倚。父母應該坦誠地告訴他們, 雖然爸爸媽媽會分出一點時間照顧小寶寶,但對他們的 愛永遠不會改變。 • 對於一些大點兒的孩子來說,他們可能將承擔起「老 大」的角色。父母不在的時候,他們要照顧小點兒的 孩子。他們這樣做時,父母應該予以認同並不時獎勵 他們。一些孩子可能會覺得這是負擔,因為他們覺得這 只是單方面的付出,毫無回報。這時,父母不可以強硬 地要求他們照顧弟弟妹妹,而是應該轉變一下他們的角 色,讓他們成為小點兒孩子的「玩伴」。這樣,他們會 輕鬆許多,兩個孩子都會過得很開心。

Dr. Kok emphasises that for parents who “accidentally” carrying a younger children, he advises parents not to tell both siblings that this is an accidental birth. This may pose hostility between the siblings as the older one take the younger as a redundant member and a burden to the family, which may affect their future relationship-building. Instead, parents can look upon this positively as a surprised gift to the family, which brings every member to a whole new level of perspective in every way. 郭博士強調,對於「意外」懷孕的父母,不應告訴孩子 們這是「意外」懷孕。這樣會在兄弟姐妹中間產生敵 意。大孩子會認為這個小東西是家裡的累贅和負擔,這 樣會影響他們以後正常關係的建立。相反,父母應該積 極樂觀地將小寶寶看作天賜的禮物,讓所有家庭成員都 懷著感恩的心情,迎接新成員的到來。
Overcoming family gaps Every member is a precious pearl to the family spirit, where each plays a significant part in learning and growing from each other. In the second season of Disney’s television programme Good Luck Charlie, every member of the Duncan family is trying to adjust their lives to the birth of their fourth child, Charlotte “Charlie” Duncan. When her parents, Amy and Bob goes to work, they asked her siblings, Teddy, Gabe, and PJ to take care of her. In each episode, Teddy the

Autism:
Few Signs to Raise Your Flag 自閉症其實很普遍
A
ll children develop differently and parents are avid observers of one of life’s most amazing miracles. Seeing your child walking, learning to talk and turning into a little person makes all the hard work worth the effort. However, for some parents the process might be quite different. For some parents, an ever-pervasive worry starts to set in when their child fails to meet common milestones or begins to exhibit behaviour that might not seem so normal. One disorder that has been growing in prevalence is Autism Spectrum Disorder. Once considered a very rare debilitating disorder, it is now relatively common and the fastest growing developmental disability in the world with 1 out of every 110 children born diagnosed with Autism. The first thing that parents often notice is that their child’s speech is behind or in some cases not happening at all. The frequency of communication initiations may be very low and mostly related to getting things that they want as opposed to initiations that are for more social purposes. Some children may talk in jargon or repeat phrases from adverts or jingles from books or the TV. Parents may notice that: • Their child does not come to them very often to initiate play, show things, or share their experiences by pointing at things in their environment. • Eye contact may be more fleeting and not used effectively to regulate interactions, for example, looking at the parent to share an enjoyable moment or to see if the parent is looking at what they are doing or showing.
Toby Mountjoy
Text | Toby Mountjoy
• It may also be apparent that their child may not show interest in other children and prefers to play by themselves when in a playgroup or when they spend time with other children. Other features of autism that parents may observe: • Their child may be more difficult to engage in play and activities. • Their child may not pay very good attention or frequently walk away from parent initiated activities or interactions. • Some children will also engage in odd behaviour like clapping or flapping their hands frequently, walking on tiptoes, lining objects or toys up, closely regarding objects or the wheels of vehicles. If you are a parent with concerns about your child, the best thing to do is to schedule an appointment to do an assessment with a psychologist experienced in the diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorders. The worst thing you can do is to ignore the issue and hope it will go away. Many children fail to get help for their condition as parents wait for the situation to improve. Although it can be a difficult step to accepting that there may be something not quite right with your child’s development, it is a critical step in helping your child to overcome their difficulties. Without this help, your child may lose the critical time to receive intervention at an early age. With the advancement in diagnostic tools, most children with autism can be reliably diagnosed by the age of 2; earlier diagnosis is even possible for children as young as 18 months.

每
個兒童都有各自的成長歷程,而家長就是這一偉大的生命奇跡最 熱切的見證者。看著自己的孩子慢慢學會走路、學會開口說話, 像個小人一樣站在你面前,再辛苦也值了。可是,對一些父母來
說,這個過程可能十分不一樣。有些孩子無法達到正常發育的指標、行為跟 別的小孩有別,令到他們的父母整日憂心忡忡、無法安眠。 自閉症的個案正不斷增加。自閉症曾被認為是極其罕見的病症,而現在已比 較普遍,是全世界蔓延最快的發育障礙病症:每110個新生兒中就有一個被 診斷為有自閉傾向。
Currently there is no known cause for autism and currently there is no “cure”. People claiming that they know the cause of autism or that they can cure autism by offering guaranteed treatment outcomes should be avoided. You only have to go to the internet to read that there is a plethora of treatments offered ranging from the traditional to the absurd. Autism has long been a hotbed of alternative treatments and new therapies claiming to treat the disorder with little or no scientific evidence are everywhere for an unassuming parent. It is recommended that parents place their trust in scientifically proven approaches that have shown to be effective. One widely used approach in the USA is Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA). ABA is the most scientifically proven treatment for autism today. It is an intensive approach that seeks to catch up a student’s deficit skills as quickly as possible. ABA is holistic and teaches children language and communication skills, play skills, emotional regulation and social capabilities.
自閉兒童的父母一般最先注意到的,是孩子開口說話較晚,甚至從不說話。 他們的主動交流意願很低,大多時候只是想取得東西,而非與社交有關的活 動。有些孩子還會從書本上或電視廣告裡學一些術語,重複地念這些片語。 自閉兒童的父母也會注意到,孩子一般不會主動找他們玩耍、向他們展示物 品,或是指著自己小地盤上的東西,跟他們一起分享快樂的經歷。目光接觸 時,孩子的眼神總是遊移不定,無法達到正常交流的目的,比如說,他們不 會嚷著爸爸媽媽跟自己一起分享快樂的時光,也甚少看看爸媽是不是留意自 己在做甚麼事情。自閉症患兒對其他小朋友缺乏興趣,在操場上或是跟其他 小朋友在一起的時候,他們總是喜歡一個人躲著自己玩。 自閉兒童的父母還會注意到:他們的孩子較難投入到某一遊戲或活動當中。 對於父母發起的活動或交流,孩子總是無法集中注意力,經常走開。有些孩 子還會出現較特殊的行為,比如說:經常拍手或擊掌、踮著腳尖走路,將物 品或玩具排成一排、整天在研究瑣細的東西或車輪等。 如果你對自己的孩子有任何疑慮,最理智的做法就是預約在自閉症診斷方面 有經驗的心理學家,諮詢一下和做個評估。最可怕的是,有些家長會對此置 之不理,以為孩子會自己好起來。每年都有許多兒童,正因為父母的忽略而 錯過了最佳的治療時機。雖然誰都不願意接受自己孩子發展有別的現實,但 這也是幫助孩子克服困難最關鍵的一步。否則,你的孩子可能會失去及早接 受治療的時機。隨著診斷工具有所改進,我們可以對兩歲的兒童作出可靠的 診斷。有時,也可對18個月的嬰孩作出診斷。 目前,人類對自閉症的病因並不瞭解,也沒有完全治癒的良方。請不要相信 那些自稱了解自閉症成因、向你保證可以完全治癒自閉症的江湖遊醫。網上 對自閉症的治療方法可謂「百家爭鳴」,你打開電腦上網,一看便知。長久以 來,自閉症一直是非傳統療法滋生的溫床。各種新式療法,既無科學根據,亦 無實踐證明,一開始便揚言可以治好自閉症,矇騙善良卻又心存顧慮的父母。 所以,請各位爸爸媽媽要信賴有科學證明的方法,因為這才是對你的孩子最 有幫助的治療。其中應用行為分析法Applied Behavioural Analysis (簡稱 ABA),已在美國得到廣泛應用。ABA是當前治療自閉症最科學的方法,採用 強化治療,幫助兒童在最短的時間內突破發展中存在的障礙。 ABA治療法是 整全的方法,不僅可以提高兒童的語言和溝通能力,同時還能幫助他們積極 參與遊戲、調節情緒,全面培養兒童的社交能力。

For Parents & Kids 親子行山
Tips and Suggestions 小貼士 Selecting a Trail: Factors to consider 選擇行山路線:考慮要全面 Charles believes country parks and hiking trails in Hong Kong are safe and user-friendly for most visitors. When it comes to hiking with younger kids, some considerations in choosing the right trail are: • • • • • •
Hiking Distance: consider choosing short routes for young kids Difficulty Level: start with easy trails Alternative Routes Available: so that you can depart if necessary Resting Areas and Recreational Facilities Weather: best to hike on cool and dry days Grassland: Trails with abundance of flat green areas for children to have some play time other than hiking.
李Sir認為,香港的大多數郊野公園和行山徑都是老少都適合的。如果帶較小的孩子 一起去的話,就需要考慮以下一些因素,選對路線: • • • • • •
行山距離:選擇路程較短、適合小朋友的路線 難度級數:應從好走易行的小道開始 備用路線:必要時可揀選幾條,要離開原有路線時作後備 休憩設施:考慮行山途中的休息場所和娛樂設施 天氣:最好在天清氣爽的時候行山 安全草地:選擇在附近有平坦、廣闊綠地的路線。這樣孩子在行山之餘,可以四 處玩耍。
Before Hiking: What You Need 行山前的準備
In the Wild – Hikers Alert! 郊野行山注意事項!
• Proper hiking footwear • Dress light • Functional backpack to hold all items, so that you can hike “empty-handed” • Mosquito sprays and related products • Sun screen • Clean backup outfit after sweaty hiking • Dry snacks and water • Digital camera • A small ball or toys to play on the green
• • • •
• 準備行山時要穿的鞋子 • 衣著要輕便 • 配備多功能背囊,將所有必要物品都放入 去,以便「空手」遠足 • 驅蚊噴霧劑 • 防曬準備 • 準備清潔用品,以便在滿頭大汗後使用 • 小吃和水 • 數碼相機 • 小球或小玩具,以便孩子在綠地上玩耍
Sudden change of weather – leave trail as soon as possible. Check telephone reception. If lost, try to retrace steps to original route. Plan a stop halfway along the trail to allow everyone to have a short break and refuel. • Signs from children feeling over-exhaustion: take break immediately and depart if necessary. • Avoid adding unplanned extra routes in the middle. It’s easy to get lost. • • • •
天氣突變時,及時離開。 檢查電話接收信號。 如果迷路了,試著回到最初的路線上。 安排中途休息的地方,讓大家停下來,休息一下:吃點東 西、喝點水。 • 發現孩子過度疲勞時, 立刻休息;有必要的 話,應該折回。 • 避 免 中 途 加 入 未 知 路 線,這樣很易會迷路。
