sinbin Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 What's wrong with the educational programs on some TV setups. I find the Disney channel good for a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiRich Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 If your daughters only 3 years old. You don't need any computer programs. Speak to her in English. When you allow T.V. time make sure the TV is set to English. I have about 50 childrens cartoons and Disney shows in English. If you would like some English cartoons, animations and you don't have access to them, send me a PM. Thai Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinbin Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 You can sign her up on www.teachertom.com. It's an Aussie site so I can't be sure of the English quality. Only joking you crim's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also in the "Teaching English" forum there is a thread for "materials" you might look there for something that can help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choppychugger Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hi Bizz, I recently purchased an I-touch, and there is some really good fun educational games you can d/load for free. I limit my 3 1/2 year old son to no more than 20 mins a day. Because of the touch screen your child can also practice there handwriting on one of the apps that also goes into phonetics etc the list is endless! Don't get me wrong you cant beat a bit of one on one games/reading/learning with your child, but when you have just about been drained of all your energy the i-touch comes in handy so you can re-charge your own batteries for 20 mins choppy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuniorExPat Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Our 2 year old and 5 year old (they'll be 3 and 6 respectively at the end of January) really enjoy uptoten.com: songs, stories, games, activities etc., etc. Not software as such but a very nice site that I'm sure will interest your 3 year old.

gerryBScot Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Like the previous poster I'd recommend starfall . I use their material with G2 kids (6-7 yo) on a Saturday morning and it works well and the site is set up so you can do a lot of stuff online and there are pretty good downloads too. It's American but don't let that get in the way - it is very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBikeBKK Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 My 2 and a half year old and I really love Sesame Street dot com: http://www.sesamestreet.org/home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keestha Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 For my 2,5 years old daughter I use fisher-price.com, kneebouncers.com and mothergoose.com. They are all at least good for learning the alphabet. Previous posters thanks for the other links, I'll definitely give them a try. Kees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
