It was my first time to try going to Scholastic Warehouse Sale and I was astounded with how low-priced the books were. Imagine being able to buy my daughter’s favorite Geronimo Stilton books for only 20 pesos each? And there are so many more books to choose from with discounts up to 80% off. No wonder I saw some buyers who bought in boxes! I mean this is a dream come true for book lovers and readers like me. If you haven’t been to this sale, it’s still ongoing till May 23, so hurry!

Attending Brotzeit Kinder Koche kiddie baking class was definitely one of the highlights of our summer vacation. It was our first time to attend a workshop like this where me and my kids had a great time learning how to bake. I’m a frustrated baker myself and even if I had planned a thousand times on enrolling to a baking school just to learn basic baking skills, I still wasn’t able to do so. So this workshop is a win-win for the whole family. Kinder Koche (German for little chef) is brought by Brotzeit Philippines, a restaurant...

I’ve just read SmartParenting’s latest 100 Things To Do With Your Child This Summer and I was obliged to check what we have done so far. I mean, it’s not a necessity to do everything because it’s vacation but I felt, the kids deserve to have more time with us, their moms and dads at least this two months. When they go to school again this school year, we only have weekends to do things together. Next year will also be more hectic with my eldest graduating in elementary and taking entrance exams. Just so happy that...

My youngest Mariel turned 9 last April and I’d like to share how we managed to give her a day which she enjoyed truly. I know how tough it can be sometimes to think of where to get your party supplies, especially when you have that much time. My daughter’s party wasn’t a grand celebration but I’d like to think of it more as a play date for her where she chose to invite her friends over, dress up, and play some games which she chose with her Ate Maristel. The party wasn’t even a total DIY because all the food...

Have you paid your SSS yet? We have just paid ours for the first quarter of 2015. Last year, we skipped several months due to financial constraints but this year, we want to start with a better year in paying our dues. As a work at home mom, it definitely pays to pay SSS because it’s like a barnyard of benefits when time comes. If you think you are already late for this quarter, there’s still a few days left. Check your SSS number and see this SSS 2015 schedule of payment and contribution. schedule of payment as extracted from...

Summer break of the kids won’t mean that work at home moms like me will also be taking vacation. We still have to work for a living like everybody else working in offices. Summer vacations can be less stressful because there will be less task in preparing the kids for school, hubby doesn’t have to wake up early to prep the car and bring the kids to school, plus we have a break in reviewing lessons. The dilemma comes over the days when we have to work and my grown up kids are all free and they have to stay at home. So I’ve...

My youngest Mariel likes dainty dresses and so, when I saw Lemon Kiss’ designs from their Facebook Page, I instantly liked what I saw. I am certain my daughter will love to wear their colorful and pretty apparels. From the photos in Lemon Kiss’ Facebook page,  one stood out for me. I love aquamarine! This will be perfect for Mariel when she goes on stage to receive her medals (yabang lang :-)) Mariel Loves Dresses It’s a good thing that my daughter likes to wear dresses because I think not all little girls like to wear...
