Tips + Tricks: 5 Fun Things To Do With Your Children This Christmas Break

December 28, 2022 4 Comments

All year-round everyone in the family is always busy with something. Parents can be very busy with work while the children are preoccupied with school or school-related activities. Christmas break is one of those few occasions when everyone can gather at home and do something fun and exciting.

The few days that you are at home with your children present exciting opportunities to create core memories with them. It is a chance to have long, lazy conversations with them to get to know them better. It is also the perfect time to catch up on your favorite TV shows or that new puzzle.

I have listed a few fun things you can do with children this holiday break:

Write Christmas cards together

Writing and sending Christmas cards and postcards is a fun tradition you can start doing with your children this holiday. Send cards to relatives in far-off places or to your little one’s godparents. You may even choose to send one to his friends, or even to a stranger. You can check online posts looking for people to send cards to the elderly in nursing or retirement homes.

And if you are looking for interesting cards to send, these beautiful Larry Alcala Christmas cards from UNICEF are perfect. You can get them for free for a minimum donation of Php1,000.00.

Play online games with them

The kids will appreciate it very much if we will spend time with them doing the things that they love. These online games can be tricky, but we will score a thousand “best mum” points if we will simply try. I tried playing Fortnite, one of my not-so-little man’s favorite online games and it was quite the experience. I am clueless about these games myself. But I did manage to survive a few minutes and got 45th place before another player managed to kill me. So it’s all good!

You can also introduce them to new online games, like these interesting money games from MortgageCalculator.org. They have a wide array of fun and educational games that you and the little ones can enjoy. Choose from colorful cooking games like Cooking Fever or try the Math-related games like Supermarket Numbers with the little ones. Introduce your older kids to more complex games like Lego City Adventures Build and Protect or Bitcoin Tap Tap Mine.

Parenting 101: 7 Ways To Raise Eco-Friendly Children

February 22, 2020 No Comments

Raising eco-friendly children has never become a necessity until today. With all the environmental issues we are facing, it is a must that we raise children to be more conscious about nature and the planet.

Although getting children to care about their surrounding may seem like a daunting task, it is highly doable. In fact, there are many simple ways to nurture the little ones’ interest in nature. Here are a few easy ways to help you in raising eco-friendly children:

Show them how to Save Water

Children learn by imitation and the best way to teach them to do something is by showing them. When you lecture them about saving water, show them how it is done. Show them how to save water by using a glass when brushing their teeth. You can also demonstrate the proper way of using the shower and saving water while taking a bath.

Adopt a Pet

Adopting a pet is an effective way to encourage empathy and responsibility in children. It is also a practical way to get them to care for nature. It might be a major decision for the family, but you can start by adopting a hamster or a rabbit. You can move on to adopting bigger pets, like a cat or a dog, when your child is older.

KidZania Celebrates Father’s Day With LBC Express In “Daddy, Get Set Go!”

June 20, 2017 3 Comments

Kidzania Manila is one of my little man’s favorite place to visit. He enjoyed each of our visit and always looks forward to go back {you can read our previous Kidzania Manila visits here}. We were supposed to go there on Father’s Day, but, unfortunately, we cannot make it. We are both crossing our fingers that we can go back very soon.

Receiving an LBC padala always brings joy to every recipient as it never fails to put a smile on a recipient’s face or make the day better. To spread some Father’s Day cheer in their own way, LBC joined KidZania this past weekend in celebrating the man of the house with special activities for kids and their dads.

At the Courier Service establishment in KidZania, designed as a mini-LBC Express branch, kids and their dads worked together in receiving and boxing parcels and shipping them out around the city.

LBC, the Philippines’ market leader in retail and corporate courier and cargo, money remittance, and logistics services, also set up a special booth in the city where kids got to write greeting postcards for their dads. Kids only needed to pay using their kidZos – the official KidZania currency. After writing, they could hand their custom postcards personally to their dads who accompanied them to KidZania.

As a special Father’s Day treat, kids could also surprise their dads by sending their greeting postcards for FREE, with LBC shipping them within Metro Manila right to their doorstep.

With these special Father’s Day activities, LBC hopes to send the message to everyone that they are always ready to send love and happiness by connecting lives – whatever the reason or the occasion.
