Until now, I still find it fun to buy and bring home a Happy Meal to my kids. That feeling that you are carrying something special, the red color of the box, the McDonald’s meal inside it, and of course, the Happy Meal toys, I love everything about it. When I was still employed, I was always excited on paydays when I get to bring my babies a Happy Meal box. My daughters and I love their Hello Kitty toys and girls’ accessories so I always look out for their new releases monthly. Now, McDonald’s made Happy Meal not only...

Do you use apps? Sa dami ng apps available, I stopped using so many and retained only a few. Because like some of the books I own (the physical books) end up being dusty. I am always de-cluttering at home and that’s the same with my phone. Aside from the default apps, I only keep my social media apps, Waze, Uber/Grab, A PDF Reader, and this one, most recently, The Smart Mommy App. The Smart Mommy App is actually a very new app which I’ve learned from the developer herself LJ Reyes. Yes, the actress LJ Reyes. I met her just...

Who wouldn’t love an app which will give you back some cash after you shop for your personal needs, something that we routinely do every week? Snapcart, a mobile app currently downloadable only through Android phones, lets shoppers do that.

In short words, Snapcart uses the data from the receipts...

I bet you’ll agree with me that when it comes to mobile and tablet apps, our kids are much in tune with them than us. These apps, for me, can do good for our kids, given that they are properly controlled and monitored. One app that I personally enjoyed using myself is Jollibee’s newest Jollidance Showdown App. Jollidance Showdown App is an augmented reality app and it’s the first of its kind in the country, brought by Jollibee in cooperation with a Los Angeles based app developer Trigger. Augmented Reality is a technology...

We were once refill ink users and it didn’t take much time before we realized that we aren’t really saving a lot. At first, it was fun, being able to print out a lot but within a month or two, my kids projects looked dirty as the ink we used smudged a lot. We also noticed that the colors were not as vivid as we expected. When it was time to refill the ink, it became a bit stressful to remove the cartridges and get our fingers dirty. No wonder that when we went to the refilling station, their place was also dirty with ink. HP...

Have you tried visiting a Hobbes and Landes shop? If not, I suggest that you try to enter one of their branches and I am sure you’ll find it hard not to be amazed of the collections they have for everyone in your family. First time I’ve seen their store in BGC, I immediately thought of my kids and my husband specially and I am sure that they are going to enjoy it once they see the store. Hobbes and Landes is a candy land for toy fans, collectors and hobbyists. Everything in the store is original and sourced from legitimate...

Having babies and toddlers, from experience, is both an enjoyable and a challenging feat. I can say that I’m lucky to have the opportunity to be with my kids since they were infants and to have a husband which was as hands on as I was. I remember that during those years, we enjoyed going to the mall and go window shopping for baby clothes, baby shoes, furniture and accessories. As we were just starting then, our money is very limited but still, I can still say that those years were fun. Any loving parent will enjoy seeing beautiful...
