the 'OWL' in children speech & language development

This morning (yesterday morning to be exact), I attended a parenting workshop under speech therapy unit @ HUKM.
I went with an empty mind to learn.
and so I brought home 'OWL'
O - Observe
W - Wait
L - Listen
I must admit, in the haste to let my youngest one to learn talking, I've think I've made it quite stressful not only for myself but has imparted stress on her too. 
So, after this, I'm going to make learning and stimulation in a more relaxed and peaceful environment.
Children learn best during play and when they are happy, peaceful and relaxed.. I must make it a point to remember this.
Thank you for sharing techniques and ways with us.
Hoping that more parents can benefit from these sessions. Kudos.

2015 ... after 8 month & 14 days

sorry for the long hiatus
things came and gone, gave it a thousand thoughts but it still come and go.
I still have a few unfinished (perhaps unstarted post sitting with spider webs)

these 8 months and 14 days were not simple,
a lot of decisions made, good or bad some we may not know till later.

However, there were things that I've not done despite the urgency.
it reflects how bad is my level of procrastination.
We have a leaking roof for almost 2 years now. 
and only a few days ago I called the roof contractor (who's very busy and no time to layan me).
anyone got good contacts to recommend? 
It's a long list of things need to get done but I don't wish to bore you, so I'm leaving it there strictly on my to-do-list.

I realised I've been more selfish, looking after my welfare and those of my love ones.
Cause I realised if I don't look after myself & love ones, who will?

my littlest one is 2 now, quite a milestone for this little girl. 
I've many many people to thank 
and I've learnt and still learning many many things

It's great we have managed for 8 months 14 days so far.
hoping for just a simple and happy 3 months 17 days to go.
