Something fun to write about...
One frequently asked question @ CzipLee is: - What is a good pencil to start with for my child?
As a kid, I too face a bit of a problem finding good pencils or colour pencils when I write or colour. There have always been jumbo crayons, chalks etc and well I know that there are Jumbo size stationery in parts of the world but let's say, it never really got here till recently.
The problem with the normal ones were that though my hands are small, the pencils seem harder to hold on to! There were very limited choices till now. A while back, Stabilo finally brought in this full range of Jumbo Series. Writing is so much easier and more fun now:
I will share with you the full Stabilo Jumbo series in the next few post! technorati tags: learning to write children handwriting del.icio.us tags: learning to write children handwriting keotag tags: learning to write children handwriting Labels: In Store with CzipKid, Jumbo, Stabilo, stationery

The Original Exam Standard!
What you should NOT do during your exams!
With the ongoing UPSR exams, here's a list of what you SHOULD NOT BE CAUGHT DOING in the exam hall (We chose our favourites from Aha!):
1. Bring a pillow. Fall asleep (or pretend to) until the last 15 minutes. Wake up, say "oh geez, better get cracking" and do some gibberish work. Turn it in a few minutes early.
2. Bring cheerleaders.
3. Do the exam with crayons, paint, or fluorescent markers.
4. Try to get your friends or everyone in the room to do the wave.
5. Get deliveries of candy, flowers, balloons, telegrams, etc. . . sent to you every few minutes throughout the exam. 6. Bring a water pistol with you.7. Bring a black marker. Return the exam with all questions and answers completely blacked out. 8. Every five minutes, stand up, collect all your things, move to another seat, continue with the exam. 9. Turn in the exam approximately 30 minutes into it. As you walk out, start commenting on how easy it was. 10. Bring pets. MAKE SURE YOU DON'T DO ANY OF THESE, huh?!! =) If you miss our exam tips, read them again:
