We didn’t start Hannah on watching kiddie television programme until very recently when I bought her a couple of veggie tales DVDs that were on sale. Hmm, this wasn’t intentional but perhaps we didn’t want her to become addicted to TV shows or cartoons at her age of development.
Long story short, Hannah has begun to enjoy YouTube videos on children’s songs. Two of her favourites are:
I went online to order a customised video on learning the alphabet for Hannah too. Yang told me that I got conned for the price I paid. Anyway, we enjoyed the video thoroughly and Hannah wanted to watch it a few times on a daily basis. And she could recall the story for each letter with amazing clarity. The secret? Her photo is in every story of each letter. Other aspects which attracted me to acquiring this video are the use of a different classical music (mostly) for each letter, interesting story line for each letter, simple and cute illustrations and pleasant, child-friendly narrator voice. Below is a short clip of the customised video.
Hi Ling
Thank you very much for all your sharing. I’ve been following your blog for slightly more than a year. I happen to chance upon your blog while searching for a stroller to buy. My girl is one and she’s called Hannah as well. Keep the posts coming. They are great and I find the tips useful!
God bless.
Hi Theresa,
Thank you for your encouragement and you’re very welcomed too :) We enjoy blogging and hope to continue to keep our blog alive and happening :P
Happy belated birthday to your Hannah and a blessed Christmas to you and your family :D

Hi Didi,
