Fun Ranch is one of the little man’s happy place, he has been there on a number of occasions, each as fun and exciting as the last {you may read about our first visit here}. That is why we were thrilled to be invited to the Mommy Bloggers Philippines Vita Cubes Fun Day. It was a lovely afternoon catching up with fellow Mommy Bloggers Philippines members and meeting new ones, enjoying awesome entertainment and good food, and simply having the time of his life sliding and bouncing up and down with the other kids at the play area for my little bundle of energy!

The afternoon was filled with fun, entertainment, and surprises. A yummy feast was also waiting for everyone to enjoy! While the little guy refused to step away from the play area, I occupied myself with animated chats with fellow MBP mums. There were also exciting games and raffles for the mums and kiddos. The main entertainment of the afternoon was this awesome magician who left the little kiddos in awe, especially when he brought out his special guest for the performance ~ his huge yellow python!

But the highlight of the gathering, of course, was the short presentation about the newest and most exciting candy snack to hit town ~ Vita Cubes! We all learned a lot about this product and were also excited to try these yummy, gooey candies. Read on for my review of these tasty healthy treats!

Thank you Mommy Bloggers Philippines and Rebisco Confetionery Team for one splendid afternoon! :laugh:

Mum Finds: Cool Number Biscuits

food, products, mum finds, bento meals

I chanced upon this Number Biscuits while doing the grocery with my boys. In my quest to make my little man’s snack  box interesting so he will be enticed to eat everything I put in there, I got a pack of this thinking this would perfect for the little schooler’s number-themed food picks. Jared has yet to find the fascination for biscuits and pastries, but I put those in his lunch box, any way, hoping he’d take a bite or two of the treats I prepared for him one of these days.

I immediately put these cute number biscuits to good use and included a bunch in the little one’s baon for school today. I threw in a bunch of bear-and-car-shaped slices of luncheon meat, which is among the little guy’s “unhealthy” faves. The bear-shaped luncheon meat was inspired by Paddington, Jared’s current fave film. I do hope the little guy will find these number biscuits interesting enough to eat. I guess I got too excited that I forgot to throw in a couple of cutey picks into the box. Good thing I included the little one’s fork!

What are your current lunchbox finds? I’d love to read all about it, who knows maybe my little picky eater might like it too! 🙂

Jack ‘N Jill Champalok: A Fun Way To Enjoy The Goodness Of Sampalok

mum finds, Jack 'N Jill, announcement, food

Sampalok {tamarind to my non-Filipino readers} is simply everyone’s fave! We love its fruity sweet-and-sour flavor which is just a delight to enjoy with family and friends. We love it so much, in fact, that a variety of tamarind candies are available even in the smallest sari-sari store in the neighborhood.

Now, Jack ‘N Jill gives us a whole new fun way to enjoy the delicious sampalok flavor we know and love through their latest offering, Champalok. The new tamarind-flavored gummy candy allows us to enjoy sampalok sans the seeds, so we can easily chomp and munch on them as much as we like!

Champalok is packed in 20g snack packs and retails at Php5, a very affordable treat we can enjoy any time. The ideal on-the-go snack, working mums can simply stash a pack or two in their handbags or put some onto the little ones’ snackboxes, too!
