More Summer Classes For Your Kids

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Summer is not yet over and I’m still looking where I’m going to enroll AD in addition to what he is doing now ~ reading and music&movement classes.

I came across this from Mommy Pages and thought of this for AD (Ready For School Workshop) BUT venue was too far for us.  Maybe you’re within QC vicinity, try and join this nice and short summer workshops by Adarna.  If you’re not familiar with Adarna, well, Adarna is the makers of such interesting books we have for kids (and adults!).  It added color and life to our Filipino stories that also impart good values to children and a reminder to the adults reading to the kids to become a better living example.  We bought several of their books because of our fascination and excitement to share these stories to our sons, AD and JX.  (This reminds me to read the books once again…it is now collecting dust.)

Klasrum Adarna

Adarna is a good source to enhance your kids’ imagination.  For such short worhshop time, your kids would be able to learn new skills and talents they thought they never have.

For more details, call Ergoe at 02-3723548 local 122 or email at ergoe@adarna.com.ph.

Powerbooks Summer Activities

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

This is the time when I wish:
I had really looked through the internet on what AD can do “something” during the summer.
AD was older than 4yo o he can join some of the interesting activities listed below.

Other than that, I wish he still be my 4yo son.

Expo Mom 2009

WHAT'S A MOM'S LIFE LIKE?.... from EXPO MOM, May 9 and 10, 2009,  Rockwell Tent

To answer the “What will mom do the rest of the week?”,  I would say “PLENTY and ENDLESS CHORES!”

Urban Mom’s Bazaar @ Rockwell

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Rockwell's Urban Bazaar on May 1-3 at the Rockwell Tent

May 10 is Mother’s Day and this bazaar is in preparation for the MOM’s (ehem!) and of course, for the whole family (I’m sure!)!

Honestly, I haven’t been to most of the bazaar happening around the metro but I’m hoping to be able to “passby”.  Hopefully, it would be worth it because I’ll be dragging my HB and 2 kids to the bazaar.

Do you think it would be worth it to go there?  Would you know any store that will be there who do not have any outlet yet that this is the only place I can catch them?

Would you also know if they still charge entrance fee?  Maybe P50-P100 per person.

Lastly, I hope the air condition system can survive the heat on those days.
